Getting Caught Up











Friday night we had so much fun catching up with 2 families (the Kellers and Kings) from Pepperdine married housing/ law school days. All of us are now living in UT and we finally got it together for a visit (thanks Josh). The Keller's had us all over at their beautiful new home and we had a lot of fun catching up. The Keller's had their first child just a few months before graduation and all of the rest of us were childless. Needless to say we each have 2 now so there were lots of new little ones to meet. I tried to get some pictures for everyone still living in CA. Kai was in heaven as you can see by the pictures and became fast friends with Carsen and Esmae after we had been there about 3 seconds. Hopefully we can do it again sometime soon.

Spring?

Could it actually really (finally) be here?

We've had a few days of beautiful weather. Kai has been outside playing every waking free moment.

And we have used this 4 times in the last 3 days:



I LOVE it!

Kite Flying



Kai was itching to try out one of his new kites, and I wanted to soak up some of the nice weather in UT before the storms expected for the rest of the week came, so we headed out to the park last night. It was perfect- a nice night, Kai mastered kite flying quickly, and I got to play some more with the camera (thus the tons of pics).

FYI- It is currently pouring rain outside- what a difference a day makes......




(Note that Kai is the one in sole contol of these high flying pics)


(I love how they are both standing)

Easter in St. George 2009

We got back from San Diego on Thursday night and then took off for St. George on Friday. Lance's extended Flynn side of the family has a tradition of going down there every year to celebrate Easter. The kids did surprisingly well on the long drives and had a lot of fun with their cousins and grandparents. The Easter Bunny even provided 3 egg hunts, brought Kai 2 kites, and brought Rori some new fruit bites. Kai announced to everyone that he had gotten 2 because he had been "extra good". Here are some of our favorite shots from the weekend:

San Diego Spring Break 2009

Ash and the kids headed to San Diego to spend time with Grandma, Grandpa, and Whitney last week. The weather was picture perfect and a great time was had by all. The kids did great on both flights and had a blast being spoiled all week. There were lots of highlights- the beach, the mall, yummy food, birthday treats, outdoor games and toys, memory matches, super puzzle and lego building etc. Sea World has a deal where you can get a year pass for the cost of a 1 day ticket so we were able to use our same tickets from Christmas time. They have a whole new Sesame Street themed kid area and movie which Kai LOVED. It was a great trip!
