water fights and other stuff

Once again, I couldn't decide if I liked the black and whites or the color better, so you get both.

My husband. Isn't he the most handsome man you've ever seen? This probably embarrasses him terribly but I can't help it.






EDEN. As perfect & beautiful as the name implies. I could NOT have chosen a better suited name for her.





And Eden's eyeball.




Miss Emma



And with Hanna, we begin the water fight



The rest of the photos are unedited so the color is a bit blah compared to the others. I'm sure you'll deal.












It was the perfect afternoon to be outside with water bottles. The girls wanted SO BADLY to run through the sprinkler but I thought it was still a bit too chilly for that. I mean, the water from the hose is really cold. Water bottles seemed to be a great substitute.

morning rain



























These last few are from our old camera. Eden has been taking pictures with it and these are her very own shots!

This is a great one of a bubble popping...


Love this one!


Me, seconds away from being attacked by a giant bubble blob

Fun to be outside



What a glorious time of year! It's so nice to be able to just open the patio door and step out onto the deck! During the winter we can't do that because of the snow wall that piles up insanely high.





It's wonderful that the kids can go out back to play and blow lots and LOTS of bubbles, while I watch them from the kitchen window, at ease because I know there is a fence surrounding them. I love that feeling of safety.








My babies are so photogenic, I envy them. But I'm glad they like to be photographed because it gives me so much joy. And I think it's great that they will have a library of photos from their childhood. I don't have hardly any of myself. Maybe my mom does. I'll have to ask her.








I'm more than excited for summer. I plan on being outside ALL the time, taking TONS of pictures. In the evening when the sun is setting is the BEST time to take pictures, IMO. The golden glowing layer that rests atop everything is gorgeous! Nothing beats it!




Can't argue with that!

Easter Weekend

We found a Danish Æbleskiver pan at the Scandinavian store in the mall so we bought it and I tried cooking some last weekend. I totally ruined the first pan but quickly got the hang of it after that. The girls used to eat them a lot when we were living in Denmark and they really like them. They turned out pretty good, I was surprised!






And I have uploaded lots of pictures from the Easter weekend on Facebook. If you'd like to see more, click on the links below.
