Quinn just got a new camera and lens for his photography business. It's a really nice lens and he had fun breaking it in yesterday. Here is an adorable picture of Faith he took! What a sweetheart!!

Maddie turns 4! (A Little Early)

 
 
 
 
Saturday afternoon we had an early birthday celebration for Madison at the park. We had friends, family, cake, cookies and ice cream! And don't forget fun - even though we almost blew away (warm and windy!). She is getting to be such a big girl. I can't believe how fast they are growing up - next comes preschool in the fall. Maddie received some new play-doh, a kite, shovel and rake, new clothes, hair stuff, bike from mom and dad and some art supplies! What a haul!

Maddie's turn to shine!

 
 
 
 
Friday night was Maddie's ballet recital and she did great! Her class danced to the song Ponyville from My Little Pony soundtrack. I have never been more proud! She came out and smiled and did her thing (most of it) and it was a joy to see her having fun on the stage in front of all those people. And at the finale, she came out and waved to us with both hands and she was just beaming! Afterwards she got flowers from both Nanas and a Dance T-shirt from mom and dad. It was a fun night - when Maddie got home she was pretty wired even though it was after 11 pm, but you only have a first rectial once!

Our beautiful girls!

 
 
 
Here are some more park pics of our gang!

Morning at the park...

 
 
 
 
This past weekend, Mom and dad came to visit for Maddie's 1st ever Ballet recital! We were also going to combine celebrating her birthday (which isn't until June 4), because we wanted to be able to have Nana and Papa here. Unfortunately things don't always go as planned! Mom and Dad had to head back to Ohio after not even 24 hours because of Grandpa's failing health. We were sad to see them go, but so glad we had a great relaxing morning at home playing outside and then at the park walking on the trail. Here are some pics!!! The one of Maddie and Papa is cute - they were tap dancing on the boardwalk!!

Field Day in Mrs. H's Kindergarten Class

 
 
 
 
Quinn and I (and the girls) went to watch Grace at her field day today at school. It lasted for an hour and the Kindergarteners and Young Fivers did the long jump, softball toss and running relays. She had a fun time and it was nice to go and show her we cared about the things her class does!
