It's 94 degrees out today. Lately the boys have been downing the otter pops, and Gwen soon learned they were her favorite food. If you can call that food. So we got a little healthier ones for her. She still calls them "pop pop". What a perfect treat to have on a hot day like today!
What a great quick location for some fun with the family. We went to the zoo, walked around the lake and fed the ducks, played at the park and rode the train. It was a fun afternoon.
I just had to share these adorable pictures of my little sweetie. Isn't she just the cutest!!!
The gang after the hunt eating the fruits of their labor. Tough to be a kid huh?
Damon jumping up for one of those high and hard to find eggs.
Sweet little Madelyn holding hands with Gwen. I think Madelyn got the most eggs!
Above is the egg hunt area. What a perfect place to hide eggs. Mike and Stuart did such a good job hiding the eggs that we had to leave behind 6 or 7 eggs. 
This year we finally had the whole family for Easter, so I made the boys participate in an egg hunt despite their age. We were invited over to our dear friends the Cronin's for a yummy Easter morning breakfast and then an egg hunt. This made the boys okay with the hunt, the fact that their friends were doing it with them. 
With so many scheduling conflicts around Easter I was afraid I wasn't going to get to any of the egg hunts around town, but ended up getting to 3 of them. This is the one in Ladera. She would have nothing to do with the Easter bunnies, but she loved collecting her loot.
Yummy! Grandpa has the most amazing orange trees. The most juicy and sweet oranges you've ever had. Gwen can't get enough of them. We can eat them by the bucket loads. Thanks Grandpa Jarman!
My little Gwen is the subject of my practice. I went to a photography workshop today and learned some new things. Now I have to put them into practice. Wow, there is soooo much to know. I hope my kids don't get sick of me taking pictures of them. I love her little flippy hairdo!!!
The None's came in 3rd place in the area playoffs. They played a great season. Now we are on to All Stars, which all three of the boys made, and then to Spring soccer. Sometimes it feels like it never ends. But, that is okay because I love watching them play!!!
Boys under 14 Champions. Stuart has coached many years and has always got his team into the playoffs but never this far. Last night "The None's" won the championship game and came in first in their division. Now they will go on to play in area playoffs. Now, I'll explain the team name. On their first game the ref asked the team what their team name was and they said they didn't have one because they hadn't thought of one yet. So he said, so you're the none's. And it stuck. They play their next games the weekend of December 6th. See you then!
