A T. Rex Named Sue

 Well we aren't in Hawaii for spring break, but we did go to the museum- isn't that the next best thing?!?  Maybe not, but it was the only thing we had planned to do.  Rylee was very excited to go.  I just took the girls and we had a great time.  Ashlyn wasn't so sure at first- she made me hold her for the first little while before she warmed up.  So you won't see her in many of the pictures with the dinosaurs.  And I know there are a lot of pictures- but they're all of different things and I couldn't choose! 



 These were Rylee's favorites- you looked in and saw pictures of dinosaurs.


 Ashlyn finally got brave enough!






 This is actually a kind of crocodile- Rylee really liked that one.

 Dinosaurs fighting




 The Discovery Room is definitely their favorite- 
Rylee really likes to dress up!


And Ashlyn likes the puzzles.

 Ashlyn had to dress the baby and put her to bed.











 Ashlyn let me take her picture with Sue just before we left.


Maybe it wasn't a vacation, but it was fun anyway!
(And a lot cheaper!!!)

Beautiful Day

 Finally!  Today is a beautiful day!  
Rylee has been wanting to go out and have a picnic and today was the perfect day.  
It wasn't even windy! 
What a great start to SPRING BREAK!!! 
(I just don't think it's going to last!)


 While we were eating, Matt's friend, Doug, and his little boy, Lucas, came to play.  
They fed the horses a few carrots.




 Then they did a little jumping.





 Stephan, Mercedes, and Bradley even came for a little while. 







 Ashlyn insisted on wearing shorts today- with her snow boots!!

We're hoping for many more days like this (but we also know we do live in Idaho!)!!!

Happy Birthday, Oma!


Maybe one of these days the girls will smile at the same time!

Rylee picked out Oma's present- the green necklace and earrings.  
She knows green is her favorite color and when she saw them, she was sure Oma would love them!
