New Arrivals and Almost

Baby Nessa (Vanessa) arrived a month ago.  We visited with her again yesterday!  Here she is with mom and Grandma.

** Announcement **  Here is OUR baby girl, yet unnamed.  She is on her way to enter our family around September 7!! 

We also said goodbye to our trusty old Suzuki and welcomed a family van.  :)

Easter and Spring Fling

To put it mildly, we relished Spring this year.  I have probably alluded to this before, but the warmth and out-of-doors was very welcome after our first winter back in Utah. 

We managed to get kites up with friends at the park.

Michael has been reading Calvin and Hobbes.  The hill at this park was his adventure inspired by the comic....

Lots of fun with the wagon and bikes now....

Before Conference we made a field trip downtown to the Conference Center and the Beehive House.

Grandpa Clark got some baby chicks! 

Tessa is big enough this year to LOVE Easter egg hunts!  

Tessa loved to sing about the beautiful trees where we live, "Popcorn Popping."

I made it into the impromptu photo shoot before Easter dinner too!  What a wonderful season of rebirth and renewal.

March Birthdays

We got to celebrate lots of birthdays in March and April!  Here are just a few photos.  Jared is one year older and wiser too. 

 

Princess Tea Parties are a must for cousin Ella!  :)
