Springtime...



Over spring break Laney learned to take a few steps. Now she is walking 9 or 10 steps at a time, I can hardly keep up with her! She also loves to climb up the stairs which is cute and frustrating all at the same time. She thinks it's a game. Time to put up the gate! Laney also loves to stand by the window and watch the cars go by. It's been so nice to feel that fresh air in the house. We love spring!

BURRRR



Dave and I got to enjoy a day away at Bear Vally Mountian to ski. It was our first time skiing on a REAL moutain and it was amazing! The views were spectacular! The weather was perfect! We even dared to try a few black diamonds! I only fell once, and Dave fell twice :) by the end of the afternoon we were pooped and ready to had back to the resort and recover in the hot tub! It was a wonderful day!!!




One day we took a drive to see Lake Tahoe - it was beautiful! We had lunch there, walked around a shopping area near the Heavenly Ski Resort, had some coffee to warm up, played a couple slots at the Harrah's Casino in Nevada (I lost 50 cents), had supper and drove home. Laney and Mya were troopers, missing their naps and being stuck in a carseat forever! :) It was a big day!

Calaveras Big Trees State Park





One morning we went for a hike through the Calaveras Big Trees State Park. It was a little chilly but beautiful! I was really glad we packed Laney's mittens! The pictues sure don't do it justice, but the trees were huge! We really enjoyed spending this time exploring God's awesome creation.

Spring Break 2008




We spent a week with the Wolbert Family in Angels Camp, CA. It was a nice resort and our room was right by the pool. We spent a few days swimming and relaxing at the resort. Other days we took trips to Calaveras Big Trees State Park, Lake Tahoe, Columbia State Historical Park, Murphys, and Bear Valley Mountain. One of the highlights for me was watching Mya and Laney play together. They are so sweet! We also found out that we are going to have a new little nephew in August. We are super excited!!! Thanks for a great week together! Love ya lots! More pictures to come soon...
