Yeah for Sunshine


































This morning we woke up to blue skys and the sun shining. I called Aubrey right away and we decided to take the girls out in our courtyard to play. As soon as we got down the stairs they took off and just ran. You could tell that they loved thier freedom from our small apartments. Thier faces expressed pure joy as they played ring around the rosy, pretended to be tigers and as a grand finally we climbed our hill and rolled down it. I loved the warmth. I basked in the sun and thought of all of the fun things that I look forward to this summer; grilled hotdogs, running in sprinklers, walking to the zoo, going to the lake, and just playing playing playing outside.

Kaylee bought Michael and I tickets to go to the play "Thoroughly Modern Millie" while she watched the girls. What a wonderful gift!! It was playing at the Rogers memorial theatre, which is this adorable little theatre in Centerville. One of my favorite things to do is going to see shows there. This play was about a young girl from Salina, Kansas (michael and I had to laugh about that) that moved to New York so she could become a more "modern woman". Don't let that give you the wrong idea about Kansas. Kansas is AWSOME: ). While in New York she decides that she is going to make her fortune by finding a job and marrying her boss. The show was full of Jazz, fun tap dancing, and people with amazing voices. I had so much fun sitting holding Michaels hand and eating a kit-kat while watching the fabulous talent on stage. Thank-you Kaylee!!

past 6 weeks


































Pictures Pictures Pictures

Wow, I can't believe how fast these past 6 weeks have flown by. It has been snowing here like crazy, so the girls and I have been cooped up in our little apartment. The sun came out today though, yea spring is on it's way! So if anyone knows me,they know how technically challanged I am. (I don't know how I managed to marry a mechanical engineer :). This year for christmas I got a spiffy new camera and all this time I could not figure out how to down load pictures onto the computer. I was used to just sticking the memory stick in, and tada the pictures would show up. Well today I decided to look at the manual and there was a diagram that showed me what to do. So EASY!! I feel pretty silly that I didn't figure it out before today. Oh well, now I know. Anyway I have tons of pictures now that I would like to post of Emry and Amelia. They are getting so big. Last Sunday at church couldn't believe how chunky Amelia is. She is sooo cute!! She has started to giggle in her sleep, and every now and then a smile will creep it's way across her face. I am so in love with that girl!! Emry can't get enough of Amelia, she loves to push her in her baby swing and climb all over her to give her kisses. I am such a lucky mom. Here are a few pictures from the past 6 weeks.
