Easter 2013

Happy Easter!!!

Such a crazy fun weekend.  =)


Saturday afternoon, we dyed eggs at home.

Sunday morning started off with an Easter egg hunt that led to an Easter basket FULL of fun things.....
 
.....followed by the obligatory family pictures!


 
Then it was off to church - where a pretty big Easter egg hunt was waiting for all of the kids!
 
After church, we headed to our usual spot for a late breakfast (Einstein's), and then headed to Jen's Mom's house for lunch.  There, Noah dyed more eggs.....

..... got another Easter basket of goodies.....

..... went on another Easter egg hunt.....

..... and drank from the faucet after playing hard outside and enjoying the nice day.  ;)


Couldn't have asked for a better, more perfect day.

Sunny San Fran

It's become part of our normal routine around here for Greg to leave Jen and Noah for a few days and travel for work.  Lucky for us, it's not that often. Lucky for us, Jen and Noah get to go with him whenever they want.  Lucky for us, his district is in California!  =)

So...... for the last few days, that's what we've been up to!  Greg decided to extend the end of his trip, Jen flew out and met him, and we made an actual mini vacation out of it! Sightseeing in San Fran, driving down the PCH, seeing the sights in Monterey and Carmel, having lunch and shopping in Santa Cruz, making the "17-mile drive" and spendng some time at Pebble Beach, stopping at random beaches to enjoy the sights/sounds, etc.

We had WAY too much fun getting away for a few days, being alone and just enjoying each other.   Next time we'll take Noah though. That boy loves the beach! :)

Here's a few pics from our adventure.......




 






 
Does this house look familiar?  =)



2 of the best lunches we had..... =)


We're already making our list for the next time we go out - there's just so much to see/do!

Gonna Take a Walk Outside Today.....

It was a BEAUTIFUL day outside today, so we decided to take advantage of it and do some exploring in the hills/mountains behind our home.
