Grandma's Visit



Grandma came to visit the girls for a few days. Allie stayed at her hotel for 2 nights and went swimming and stayed up really late. Celia was kind of sick, but still managed to have some fun with her.

Happy Easter




The Easter bunny came and the girls found lots of treats and toys in their baskets. Celia's favorite was the jelly beans and Allie's was the chocolate bunny. Then they put on their new Easter dresses. Allie and mom went to church and later Celia and Dad joined us for brunch. Now it's time for a nap!

Easter Eggs




The girls dyed Easter eggs tonight, and actually went to bed without a fuss! We'll see what the Easter bunny brings tomorrow....

Reading Together


Celia loves books, sometimes Allie will even read to her, and Celia loves that!

Happy St. Patrick's Day!



Allie made this leprechaun mask in school but wouldn't wear it, so Celia was happy to put it on :-) Meanwhile, the rest of us wore green and ate shamrock cookies.

St. Patty's Day 1994


Here's a blast from the past - celebrating St. Patty's Day back in 1994, my senior year of college. We got to the bar at 5am to get a free t-shirt and eat green eggs and ham. And I still made it to my classes that day ;-)

Happy 5 1/2 Birthday



Allie officially turned 5 1/2 today and she wanted a celebration! It's also a big week for her because she lost her front tooth on Sunday. The tooth fairy left her 8 quarters, and will be back soon since her other front tooth is loose too! This is the third time she's lost a tooth. She's saving her money for a new Barbie (even though she has around 19).

Day at the Zoo





It was 64 degrees on Saturday so we decided to head to the Omaha Zoo. It's a good thing we did because things turned cold and snowy the next day! Allie met her friend Abby at the zoo along with Mitchell, the son of one of Mark's friends. They all had a lot of fun, especially Celia who loved looking at all the animals :-)
