April Showers Bring...

April Blizzards??
Yesterday, I woke up and it was utterly gorgeous, perfect weather outside. It had rained the night before, the smell of rain was lingering and everything had greened up... it was so beautiful! Everyone had to take a short break from school to play outside and soak in the sun.
Today, I woke up, rolled over, looked out my window, blinked twice and rubbed my eyes to double check- it was snowing. haha I love Colorado.

Here are some random pictures I've taken in the past month.

I was trying out an experiement with cupcakes and... well, it didn't work out. I was attempting a recipie from Taste of Home that involved filling the cupcakes. They actually didn't turn out too badly, but I had planned to give them to our neighbors, and they weren't quite good enough. So I turned the cupcakes, the fillings, and some leftover icing over to Anna and Abigail to do what they would.

Cute.

I think she was deciding what to use... Or maybe she was concerned that she was going to have to clean up.

Happy girl.

For Ressurection Day, we had a few families and our grandparents over for dinner and a day of fun. Between us and the four other familes, there were about 38 children... haha a full house!

Allison made these fruit arrangements. She cut out all the fruit shapes and everything!

Beautiful and yummy...

Aidan had a suggestion for the photo...
"Have this guy walking by..."

I love him so much.

The ladies... and the piece of pipe Jared felt compelled to stick in the picture.

The men.

Typical... =)
