Last Saturday, we had a gorgeous day and decided to go to Gas Works park in Seattle to play some catch, to catch some sun and to run around.

Sister friends
I have such great memories of playing with my sisters (and brother!) as a kid. So, it's a lot of fun to watch Avery and Elliot play together. One of their favorite spots is the back of the coat closet, where we keep all of our luggage.
All of a sudden, Elliot decided she did not want Mike or I to read books to her at night. She will occasionally let Avery read to her, though. We still read plenty of books to her during the day, just not at night.
I took the girls to Country Village to ride the train a couple weeks ago. It was a beautiful Friday afternoon and the train was in fine form.
Elliot was new to the train, so wasn't sure what to expect.
The ducks were also a big attraction. "Guck, Guck!"

Easter!
The Saturday before Easter, the girls and I went to a community egg hunt. The weather was coooold, and it didn't exactly feel like the rebirth of spring, but both Avery and Elliot found "special" eggs that they turned in for prizes.
It's fun to blow bubbles in the early morning chill, because the bubble are half frozen and stay intact for longer. Avery was able to cover the whole hillside in our backyard before they began popping!
A hunting we shall go . . .
Sandy and Monte came for Easter dinner and Monte helped the girls find ways to reuse their Easter eggs.
