Springtime Travels


In April Adam started traveling for work. It was pretty disappointing, since he wasn't supposed to be traveling at all for this job and they asked him to start going one week a month.


To make things easier on me, we decided to drive out to Utah so I could stay with family while Adam was gone.


It was nice to be home, and for the kids to spend time with their cousins. 


They got to hang out with Papa Great too, which was nice since we don't get a lot of time with him. 


Will always gets so worn out when we are there!



My mom has a pass to the aquarium, so of course we made a trip there. We love that place!



Grandma B also has a zoo pass, so we went there too!




Charlie bear sure loves his grandma!





After some fun in Utah, Adam flew back to get us and we drove back home to California.

Henry

The twins just keep getting cuter and cuter. Their little personalities are so funny.

After the traveling Adam had been doing, we decided he deserved a break, so we took a day off and went into the city.



We had never been to Golden Gate Park before, so we grabbed some lunch at Sushirrito and headed there.


We checked out some gardens and the Dutch mill, and then walked over to Ocean Beach.


It was super cold by the water though, so we decided to just find a park and let the kids play.



Before we knew it, Adam was leaving for work again. Since it had only been a couple weeks since his last trip, we decided that the kids and I should stay put this time, so Deena and Deb came out to visit and help with the kids.



We had fun playing outside with the twins' new water table and also went to the park.


Then Adam came back and we were back to life as usual for the most part.

We go for walks every time Adam gets home from work early enough. The kids like to dress up for the occasion.

I was on Facebook one day and saw an article about the U-Pick farms in our area. I thought it sounded like fun, so we went to pick strawberries with some friends one morning.




These boys are all just so cute and they are starting to interact with each other more and more. I love it!

March

 Mikki and Taylor came to visit us in March, and brought us our new dog, Roxie.  We adopted her from some friends of ours in Utah who couldn't keep her anymore. Isn't she so pretty? She's a bit of a nervous little thing, and she isn't too sure about the twins. She loves me, Adam, and Will though.


 We tried to take our visitors up to Muir Woods to see some redwoods, but it was crazy busy so we just headed to Stinson Beach.



The kids had a blast. Once we introduced the twins to the water they never wanted to come out!




They also enjoyed making "sand soup" and various other "food" with the beach toys. 


We also took them on a tour of the Jelly Belly Factory, which is always fun. 


 Before we knew it, Easter was here.


Will loved decorating the Easter eggs, but the twins weren't much help. 


They all had fun hunting for eggs though!









The Easter bunny also brought Will a baseball and bat, so we spent the afternoon playing baseball.



On Sunday we dressed them in their new Easter shirts and the vests Mikki made for the twins. What cute boys!


 And here's a couple cute extras
