Millersylvania State Park

On one of our recent nicer days the kids and I went for a drive and ended up at Millersylvania State Park.  We had fun exploring and enjoying the sunshine! But the main excitement of the day was learning to pee on sticks. :)

In the 'hood

We've been enjoying our dry days here in the PNW, and it's so great to be able to drive a mile up the road and enjoy such pretty scenery!

This is now the classic Micah and Hallie "cheese" face, one of these days I may catch a real smile without so much "cheese!"

Fishing

Tyson has been taking Micah fishing for a little while now. The first time Micah caught a fish, he couldn't wait to bring it home and show me.  Tyson couldn't cook it fast enough, Micah wanted to eat it right away!  Since the 1st time, he now wants to catch 3 fish every time.  On the fishing trip shown below we didn't catch any, but the next time we went to one of the lakes in our neighborhood we caught 2 fish within 25 minutes all on Micah's fishing pole.  In fact every fish we've caught has been on his pole- he's got the lucky one! 



Easter

We went to a couple Easter Egg hunts.  The first was with MOM's club and the 2nd was our primary activity.  The kids had a blast at both.  At the first hunt, Micah gathered about 8 eggs and made a bolt inside where I found him sitting on the floor going through his eggs, when I asked him what he was doing with a mouth full of skittles and purple drool dripping out of his mouth, he mumbled something about opening his eggs.  Funny kid! The second hunt, Hallie had sooo many eggs, that I had her go share some with the other kids, which she thankfully did willingly! 

I made both dresses for Hallie and Micah's tie for Easter Sunday.  They were so fun, but sadly I didn't take the picture until the very end of the day, so don't mind the 1 shoe, flash lighting, and wonderful background. :)

Portland Zoo

We met Abi and Josh in Portland when they were in visiting family in Oregon.  The kids loved the zoo and we had a great time! Sad it was only a day, but super glad we got to see them!

 Right after almost refusing the picture, Micah busts out, "Abi, you are my best friend!"

Random video while looking at fish at Wal-Mart, I know it's big excitement around these parts. :)
