Soccer Stars in Training


Future in Dancing with the Stars?! Go Brighton!!!
All right guys, the goal is that way... But Coach Brad, I would really rather just eat my snack!
All right Berklie, the only girl on the team, show us your stuff!
Oh yeah, Em...girl power!!!!
How did we do, Stafford?!
AWESOME!!! Wait...wrong way, Brighton!
This is really why they signed us up for soccer, right Berks?!

Hunting for Treasures!

We had a very busy Easter...too busy to post! We decorated cupcakes with lots of friends...Hey, can you guys pass me some of that purple frosting?!
I said "PLEASE!" I don't want a PLAIN white cupcake with gummy bunnies on it!! Sorry, Em...maybe next year!






Hey Berklie, if we plan this thing just right, maybe we can get ALL of those eggs in our Easter baskets!






Or maybe not...Brighton got one egg!
...and Berklie got NONE! She just stood there and watched in awe! Then realized this great event in which we had been planning for and were soooooo excited about was over and NO EGGS?! This is what Berklie thought of that egg hunt!






So we just packed up our car and headed to Aunt Janet's house...she called to say the bunny left the kiddos some treasures in her yard!
and in her house...Brighton, that is not YOURS, big guy!
Stanton and Katy enjoyed their time together, and just caught up on old times...I remember when you two were little and hunting eggs as if it were yesterday!
If I could just take off this tie...
Grab Aunt Jennifer's basket she so sweetly gave us, I could be off on this Easter egg hunt! That's what I am talkin' about!
Oh yeah...our very own basket of Easter treasures!
Thanks Aunt Jen, and Aunt Janet for this egg hunt...it is much better than the last one we went to!
Oh, and Emerson doesn't even know that we got all of the eggs...she just wanted to ride in the car!
...and the "BIG WEE!"
Thanks Justin, for keeping Em busy! We owe you one...next year we will have to let her in on our hunt too!
Love, Brighton and Berklie
We hope you had a blessed Easter!!!

We Live In A Zoo!

There was an egg hunt and a petting zoo at the resident's club on Sunday. We missed the egg hunt because we were at Mass. Good thing because it was FREEZING outside!!!The Easter bunny is coming to town, right?!
The tulips are blooming...
The pine pollen is falling...
But boy was it cold outside on Sunday!
The llama didn't seem to mind this cold day!
He sure could use a bath...maybe when the weather gets warmer!
This cow, well he said he was a cow, didn't seem to mind this cold day!
This little Chickie on the other hand...poor little guy was freezing!
What did Mr. Pig say, Em? I thought so...those bows look good enough to eat!!! Better get outta there, and fast! (Emerson did not really think that this piggy was too cool...he oinked a little too loud, and was not very soft!)
Mama sheep and her babies seem ready for Easter! They were PRECIOUS! They would not get too far away from Mommy and they would baa as loud as they could.
Where is your Mommy, Em?
Dr. Ricci...what do you think of his teeth?! Maybe put him on our family plan too?
Berklie loved this llama!
This little bunny is ready for Easter too...Here he is...he is the guy that wakes up every day at 6:00 AM...Please let him know that it is Spring break next week!
