Ummm.. Perfect fit..MTV Cribs Checkout the fridge.. It comes with a baby....Who-Knew.......................

Well this past week had been an eventful one. We turned in our old Infiniti and got a bigger one, because I need a little bit more room. We love it, it is so fun to drive and our whole family i.e. the boys and us can ride together and it is not too big. We have also been trying to take advantage of the sunny warm days. Ally loves the out doors and tries to go out whenever she can. Ally loves to read books, so she and Daddy sat together for a little while reading their books. It is not often you catch Cody with a book so I had to get a picture. Cody and I caught Ally in the fridge the other day, it was such a funny sight to us that I had to post the evidence.

This Easter Cody, Ally and I went down to Blayne and Pat's house for an Easter Egg hunt and pizza Saturday. Ally had her own Easter basket and she won some neat toys. It was great to see everyone. Brittany and baby Boston were able to make it, along with the boys and Jared. It was so nice to see the baby. He is such a doll.

Easter morning came and Cody had all of Ally's treats and toys all spread out for Ally to play with. I couldn't tell who was more excited, Cody or Ally. We did have a little Easter Egg hunt for her too which was fun. We also dyed eggs, well I did and Ally watched. Cody and I have always wanted to do fun things like that for holidays and now we have a great excuse to act like kids again. It is nice to be able to start family traditions with Ally and Kramer and Newman. The boys weren't left out...they got little white chocolate Easter Bunnies and played with Ally's toys.

Bret having way too much fun.... at the races....

This past week Cody, Ally and I took a trip to Dallas to visit Bret and Caleen and their family. Here are some pictures of our trip. Thank you so much Christensen family for the great vacation, we had so much fun with you guys. We did a little swimming and we got a chance to go to the Arts Festival in downtown Dallas. Which was fun, lots of different things to look at. I think that Ally had a great time. She was able to roam around their house (supervised of course) and play with Chewy and Otis (their dogs). It is nice now that she is walking/running. She just seems so grown up and independent now that she can just walk out of a room. Kinda sad. Oh well. All the kids had a great time with her and just loved to play with her. It was nice to see her interact with other kids so well. She is so fascinated by them and loves to watch them whenever we are out and about. Cody and his older brother Bret got tickets to the Texas Motor Speed Way for NASCAR. Talk about redneck heaven. They had a lot of fun and came back slightly deaf from the noise, but well worth it I guess. I am down with just watching NASCAR at home with cold beer, my own bathroom, and a great view of the cars. But how can you turn down actually going to an event like that. Well I am going to stop rambling on, I think I am just trying to compensate for my lack of blogging...So by all means enjoy.................
