MEGA UPDATE - PART 2 (Scroll down for Part 1)

The weekend before Easter, we went to Aunt Helen's place to attend the Calaroga Easter Egg Hunt, a wonderful event that the kids loved. The girls got dressed up and everyone was very happy.

Anaya and Aunt Helen. Such happiness here. :)

And because I have been told that it looks like I am never with my family, I was, indeed at the egg hunt. See?

On Easter Eve, Anaya set out broccoli, water, and a note for the Easter Bunny.

Anaya's note: "Easter Bunny, bring Sadie something." Adorable note makes parents rethink the Easter strategy at a late hour.

Flora likes chocolate bunnies! For weeks after Easter we heard "choc, choc, choc!"

MEGA UPDATE

Oh dear. It's been WAY too long, folks. Sorry! Here we go on a whirlwind tour of the last six months.

Back in late February, Flora was very interested in toilet paper. After all, doesn't this look fun?

Toilet paper puppets.

Anaya turned 4 on March 10, 2011. Can you tell what she's into right now? There's a theme here.

Yep, you guessed it. Princesses, fairies, anything sparkly and twirly.

Anaya, very excited to be painting the beads she got for her birthday.

Very careful.

I love watching her concentration.

Trying to get the jingly tags to the front.

What? Is it not my color?

Flora decides to wash all her pacifiers. She was having a blast.

The pépé bath.

In April, we headed up to Mt. Hood and the cabin. Here are Bobby and Anaya hitting the slopes on skis, despite the gray clouds.

A big thumbs up after Anaya's intro to skiing!

Flora before the sledding, and a little unsure.

Signing "more" after coming down the first hill.



The cutest snow bunnies ever.

Flora tries on the ski helmet at lunch. What do you think, Mom? Too small to go down the black diamonds this year?
