Easter Egg Hunt!

Every year we go to the Jaycee's Easter egg hunt in St Peter.  There is always a big turn out and it's over in a couple minutes so you can't be late!  Both girls did really good! They each had a bucket of treats to take home.


This was Kaelyn's first year and she was excited!
She got lots of candy and did really good!
 

Waiting for the count down to go into the 3 and under area.....
 

 

They had a ton of candy spread out for the 4&5 year olds...
 

Ashlyn filled her bucket up!

Pinterest Project

3.2.13
We decided to do a project from Pinterest...
Fill balloons with water and add food coloring. 
Once frozen, cut the balloons off. They will look like giant marbles. 

It was pretty easy, next year we'll have to try it earlier
so we can enjoy them all winter long!
 

Lego's

3.1.13

Kaelyn had fun building with some of the new Lego's we got on our trip to the Mall of America while daddy was gone on a fishing trip to Lake of the Woods.
 

Pretending to take my picture...
 

 

Silly face that she learned while staying at Grandma Deb's
house while we were in Mexico ;)
(Note: Grandma Deb denies teaching her this!)
 

New wheels

We bought Ashlyn a 50cc 4-wheeler off of Craigslist Sunday. She was getting too big for her electric one and this one is a perfect fit!  She loves that it goes faster and doesn't have to be charged up... it's gas powered! Kaelyn officially gets the electric one and I'm sure it won't take her long to figure out how to steer it this summer, last summer that was her only problem :)
 Now we just need to get a helmet!

Daddy showing her all of the new controls.. gas, break and horn.

For the first minute it was a lot of gas, break, gas, break...
but then she got the hang of it and was off!
 

Daddy stayed close by just in case she needed help....
 

 

But she didn't need any!
 

So proud of her new wheels, she can't wait to ride
with daddy on the trails in the woods this summer :)
 

Acrobats

2.21.2013

The girls have really been into putting on an acrobat show for us.  They get their leotards on and practice in the basement. Then they have us sit in the living room and put on the show. It's really cute and they can do lots of tricks. There is singing, dancing, hula-hooping, jumping and even a magic show.
Pretty impressive for a 4 and a 2 year old :)

 

 

 

 

The two cutest acrobats!
 

lots of jumping...
 

 

 

The magic show.
Abracadabra, make this "_____" disappear....
 

Then they would have us close our eyes
and quickly run and hide the item behind the couch.
Magic!
 

Popstar Ashlyn

Ashlyn was rocking out, singing songs from the movie
Barbie: Princess and the Popstar while Kaelyn was taking a nap.
She really gets into it! So cute!
