Ryan's Spring Break!

This is where Ryan spent 95% of his spring break. He loved every minute of it and he has the bruises on his legs to prove it!

Time for the beach!

Presley posing for the camera when we hit the beach - she was so excited! Preston liked watching the waves.
And the girls!
But playing in the sand was the best.
Presley enjoyed the beach and actually ran straight into the freezing cold water! They love watching the airplanes tow the banners.

Playing games in Garden City!

The ball just kept rolling back to her. She was supposed to hit it, but she had more fun watching it pop up and go back down.
Preston couldn't roll the ball hard enough, so here he is trying to climb up on the skee ball - smart boy!
We couldn't leave without riding a horsey......
and an army jeep!

My baby boy!

Just had to post these pictures because I like them!

Fun time at the beach house!

These babies love bath time! And splash time!
Preston found a new game to play - slide off the end of the couch.
And clap - and that means everybody clap!

Kyoto's at the beach ~ March 24, 2008

We all went to Kyoto's and enjoyed lots of food. This was Preston's first trip and he enjoyed watching our food being cooked at the table (even though he was a little scared of the fire!) My handsome boys!
Presley trying her best to eat with chopsticks!
Preston doesn't need chopsticks - his hands are the fastest!
Ryan with Grandma & Grandpa and way too much food!

Easter Egg Hunt ~ March 23, 2008

After church, we packed the truck and the kids and headed to the beach for Spring Break. We made a stop at my cousin's house for a great Easter Egg Hunt! Presley is patiently waiting to be told to "GO"! Ryan is off and running ~ he definitely was the champ for the day finding the most prize eggs.
PaPa is trying his best to fill Preston's basket!
Preston knew exactly what to do at the hunt because I had him practice at home all week!
Presley knew exactly how to open the eggs with candy in them and she certainly didn't hesitate!
What?

Still going strong.
OK, please tell me why this egg won't open!
Walking with her daddy.
Time for the prizes - each prize egg had a number in it and that number was the order in which you would choose a prize from the basket. Ryan had 6 prize eggs and ended up with 4 water guns, a Frisbee and I don't know what else.
Presley had 2 prize eggs and is proudly displaying her pack of stickers that she chose.

We had a great time hunting and playing and eating and then we were off to the beach.

Happy Easter!

Monkey see, Monkey do ~ well almost ~ if she had only smiled like her big brother! She did this pose on her own after seeing Ryan do it!

It's really hard to get a good picture of these 3 monkeys. Preston says, "Smile, are you serious?"

Now Preston is playing patty-cake and Presley is thinking about anything other than taking a picture. At least Ryan is holding that smile!
Our handsome little men!
How cute is that?

Presley finding her loot.

Ryan is excited about his new basketball ~ can never have too many of those at our house!
Preston is concentrating on opening his basket - don't you just want to reach through the screen and pinch those cheeks?
Katie tried her best to take a family picture for us!
Just kidding people ~ Katie is our dog!

Preston says, "Yes, it's time for church - no more pictures!" Hope everyone had a great Easter.
