Country Here We Come

There were Isabel's words as we headed to Issaquah to visit a new farm. Through hail and rain, we wouldn't let the weather keep us from fresh air and animals. The farm was great. The kids got to hold baby kittens and bunnies, go horseback riding, and swing around in the hay loft.












Egg Day

Isabel declared the day before Easter, Egg Day. A day in which we take part of the more worldly Easter activities. We dyed eggs and went to a local egg hunt. I also snuck in the room while the kids were sleeping and his plastic eggs, the presents that Grandma and Grandpa Bone sent them, and decorated the room. Egg Day turned out to be a lot of fun!

Disney World

As part of our Florida 2011 trip Grandma and Grandpa also took us to Disney World Magic Kingdom and Animal Kingdom. We had the most amazing time, the kids loved the rides. Josiah especially loved the roller coasters and even rode in the front on Expedition Everest! It was such a memorable time, but I think the biggest memory would be ....losing Grandpa. Ha!

We survived Splash Mountain with smiles

A Pirates Life for Me

Asher really loved Disney and on our way out he kept singing "A Pirates Life for Me!"



Florida!

Florida finally came. We had been planning the trip for awhile, but kept it a secret from the kids. We told them before bed that they were not going to sleep, but going to Florida! We had a wonderful time with our family in the sun. We miss Grandma Kathi and Grandpa Tom and Uncle Ryan and they spoiled us. We stayed at a beautiful resort with a pool. Playing, spalishing, and sunbathing! Here are some pictures of the trip.
