Jefferson Park

We've been having some busy Saturdays with t-ball practices back to back!  This sunny Sunday we were taking it easy and ended up hanging out at Jefferson Park on a whim with Auntie Christine. Thanks for meeting us Christine!  The girls had a blast and will definitely want to come back here again and again!

They LOVE this zip line...oh the giggles were so fun to listen to!

Kenzi and Daddy enjoying the view of the city and a big jet overhead.

Auntie Christine's long board was a big hit too.  

The girls sat and watched the kite flyers...they really wished we had brought their kites...we wished we had too!  Next time!

The girls thought the community garden was very cool.  We walked around in search of a mint plant...they love fresh mint leaves in their water.  We eventually found some and noticed many other plants, vegetables and fruit growing, it was so inspiring!  We need to start our garden for this season.

Art Completes Us!

Kenzi had her first art show debut with her fellow Ladybugs at the annual Children's Garden Art Show.  The class did one cute dance ::Here we go loop-de-loo::  

Kenzi did a great job dancing with her class!  I'll have to download some pictures of her art work to add to this post...

Kenzi@ Crossroads Park

Kenzi and I stopped by the park near Crossroads to enjoy some sunshine while Emi was at math.  she's wearing her helmet on the see-saw because she ditched her scooter that we brought along...so much fun in the sun!

Two wheeler in training!

Kenzi practiced a few times without training wheels and she caught on pretty quick to riding with 2 wheels...we just need to make sure she gets some more practice stopping.  Looking forward to warmer and longer days to practice with Daddy after work.

Here is Emi, hanging out on the picnic blanket while Kenzi practices her riding.

Packed up and heading home {she's got her bag of snacks and books, an umbrella for shade, and the picnic blanket}.

Spring break

We had a fun spring break filled with family time and time with friends.

The beginning of the week Auntie Bekah and Uncle Blake came to visit from Spokane.  It was SO nice to have them stay with us.  Sadly we didn't take as many pictures of our time together.  While they were here we visited Woodland Park Zoo, had dinner with Uncle Justin at U-Village.  

Kenzi was interested in "reading" the map at the zoo.

We ran into Kenzi's Ladybug friend Kaylee at the zoo!

Watching Annie after Easter...{it was the lastest version of Annie} we liked it!

Tuesday morning we meet up with my friend Krysta and her son Harry {I didn't even get a picture of the kids together} we explored the Kids Quest Museum together.  This spiral chalk wall was fun for the girls.  They had to work together and took turns nicely!

Wednesday we were spoiled with SUNSHINE!  We met my friend Ashlee and her son Trace (8 months) at Junita Beach Park.  It was a new park for us, we'll be back!  The girls had fun playing in the sand while Ashlee and I caught up with each other...then it was time to swing at the playground.

Our spring break ended with a trip to Vancouver BC.  It's always a fun get away and the weather held up pretty well.  We ate fresh oysters, gelato, the girls swam at the hotel pool, we walked around downtown and spent a day at Grandville Island {the girls had fun playing at the playground, watching some street performers, eating sandwiches from a yummy bakery and riding the aquabus.}

Kenzi T-Ball 2nd Practice/Game

Kenzi did a better job this week at t-ball.  She smack this one really well and ran the bases without too much hesitation, yay Kenzi!

Playdates!

We are so lucky to have so many friends to have playdates with.  Kenzi was enjoying a fun morning of play with Sofia and Olivia (below).

Later Kenzi drew this picture of Olivia and Sofia and their brother Matias.  I love how her drawings are getting more and more detailed.

Kenzi also had a fun playdate with her friend Claire.
