April showers happiness

So we congregate for Alivia's baptism:

















Our little family goes to the Aquarium:













And then the ZOO!!



















Jeff's birthday presents!







The moment he realizes he's getting a new iPad:













Easter Morning!  Wait, I mean Easter Bunny morning!!!





We run over to see Morgan's cool soccer game,



And then he finishes his Pinewood Derby car with Dad!



At Sunday dinner, Connor & Kira try to play together



We celebrate Daddy!



We get together with our cousins!



And then it's Pinewood Derby time!!



Morgan wins so many of his races!



While the future cub scouts play on their own.  =)

The princesses turn FOUR!!

Anticipation is the best...















We start celebrating at a Sunday dinner with the Madsens at the home of the Murphys; Natalie's Uncle Dale & Aunt Nancy.  =)











The next morning, Breakfast in Bed!!!





And then all their friends came over for a party!!!















Then, after their friends went home, we opened family gifts.  =)











Did I forget to say that my dad made this custom grip for the cool .38 special that Jeff got me for my birthday?  Well, here it is.  I love it.



Kierste wanted a picture by all of her favorite birthday presents.  =)



And then we found the twins... completely out of steam while playing at bedtime...



Helping Mommy with all of the filing:



And the princesses dance.  It's recital time!!
