And we're back!

The funny thing about having less than 1 gig of free space on the computer is that it's surprisingly hard to upload 16 gigs worth of memory cards onto it. Funny how that works.. But thanks to my lovely new external hard drive, we're back in [pic overload] business!

We've had a great 6 weeks here in happy valley, although we're drowning in clothes since we apparently need the summer and winter wardrobes out at the same time - 80 degrees one day, 20 the next.. running in sprinklers, digging the car out of a snow bank - that's spring life in utah for you. After 6 'springs' in New Hampshire (constant snow banks mixed with ice storms) we'll definitely take it!

We took advantage of one of the sunny days recently and took the kids to the garden at Thanksgiving Point. We thought we were going to the tulip festival, but we were 3 days too early for that - oops.. It was still beautiful, and great to be out of the house!

We're trying to keep busy around here (not that that's much of a challenge) while we wait for our new baby boy. Now that I have a few free gigs on the old clunker, I'll (hopefully) be back before 6 more weeks go by!

Easter

We had a nice Easter - took the kids to a huge easter egg "hunt" - not sure why they called it a hunt since all 50,000 candy eggs were laid out all over the football field, but the kids loved it.

And last but not least, Vampire Hair! (If you haven't seen twilight - and I really can't blame you - just skip this one.. I swear half their movie budget went into mousse and hair gel) aka william straight out of the bath

Andrew turns 3

Our first son had a great third birthday complete with a few hours at Chuck E Cheese and too many presents for a three year old! Now he refers to everything in the house by "it's my birthday present!"
