The good egg

We just got back from a fabulous weekend in Iowa, spent with Sarah, Chris and Lucy. Our Easter was so fun with our niece, who is just pure fun. Saylor and Tagg loved playing with their cousin and attempting a movie night. Sarah made a wonderful Easter meal in their new home that we all enjoyed, Tagg asked if he could take their house home. Yes, the Easter bunny found us in Iowa thanks to Aunt Sarah sending a letter ahead of time to let him know where we were.

This is a picture of a tree in theor neighborhood that we had to check out. This was one memorable Easter, with the snow and the tree!

skiing

Matt, John and Saylor went to Breckenridge to ski and enjoy all the snow. Saylor went to ski school all day for kids aged 7-13. She made a friend from Des Moines and learned to parallel stop, no more snow plowing. Matt and John had a fabulous time skiing and checking on Saylor too.

Winter Activities

Saylor and I went to Omaha with our friends to see Addy an American Girl theater production. It was in a beautiful theater, in the heart of the city. The show was amazing and we enjoyed a girls day.

These 2 pictures I caught of Saylor and Tagg on a Saturday morning, they were debating how fast Tagg would go down the stairs in a cardboard box. Tagg finally got too scared and bailed out on the adventure.


Another adventure we took on was teaching Tagg to ride a bike. You may notice that he is missing from the pictures because he rides like a bat out of hell. Saylor really likes to ride cautiously and slowly so this is new to us to have a fast rider.

Tagg's big day

Tagg had an exciting day at school a few weeks ago. He was recognized for being a good citizen/good person at school during an assembly. There were 3 kids from each grade recognized and they had to go in front of the school to get their cookie. "It was not embarrassing" said Tagg.

January

On January 1 2008 Saylor lost her first tooth. This was a huge event for Saylor as nearly all of her friends had lost multiple teeth already.

winter wedding

The kids were part of a wedding this weekend. They did such a great job with their duties. Tagg had to walk alone up the aisle and hold the actual wedding rings. Saylor and her friend did great at throwing flowers. Tagg had been really sick earlier in the week with a double ear infection and walking pneumonia! Thankfully he was feeling great by Saturday.
