Here We Go Again

We've been making excellent use of our Christmas gift from Uncle Chris and heading to the zoo very regularly.  The new Orangutan exhibit is amazing and the kids love the children's area.  Beno and I just love spending time with each other and the kids. 

Family Fun

April has been a whirlwind and there's more to come.  Earlier this month our cousins from Idaho came to visit and we had soooo much fun with them.  Come back to visit us soon Skerjancs : )

Monkeying Around

Rodeo Days

The kids were delighted to celebrate Rodeo Days at St. Maria Goretti's.  We panned for gold, learned a little two step, enjoyed a pony ride, and played with all the animals at the petting zoo.  It amazed me how both Emma and Evan showed no apprehension when approached by the animals and loved holding them. I think our next house will have a farm.

 

My Babes

“This is my wish for you: Comfort on difficult days, smiles when sadness intrudes, rainbows to follow the clouds, laughter to kiss your lips, sunsets to warm your hearts, hugs when spirits sag, beauty for your eyes to see, friendships to brighten your being, faith so that you can believe, confidence for when you doubt, courage to know yourself, patience to accept the truth, love to complete your life.” Winnie the Pooh and your biggest fan...Mom

Jump Up Jump Up and Get Down

Weather permitting, and we don't say that much in AZ, the kids have been out on their favorite gift from Santa...our jumpoline.  Every morning our “in house” meteorologist opens the door to the backyard to inform me that, "it's not cold, come on Mommy let's go jump".  My response these days has been, “yes it is honey, we’ll jump later this afternoon”.  Now with some this conversation might be over, however, my daughter seems to be working on the art of negotiation.  And I have to say that I often forget she’s 3!  She has these logical, thought out retorts. Although I also love it when she tells me that Evan’s sad and wants to go jump too.  These days my baby journaling includes all of the fun quips that my kids bless me with daily.
