Playing outside at Faraway Grandma and Papa's

We went to visit Faraway Gma and Papa- the weather was so nice that we got to play outside! Can't wait to go back in June!

Easter 2009

We had a really great Easter. The kids woke up and found their baskets, we had breakfast together, went to church and then to Grammie and Papa's for an Easter Egg Hunt! Couldn't ask for better weather!

Happy Easter!

These are 

pictures of the kids at the Easter Egg Hunt in Hinckley. The kids got to see the Easter Bunny. Sophia leaned over and whispered in my ear " Mom I know that the Easter Bunny is just a costume, but don't worry I won't tell Joey or Carson....."  Easter Blessings to all.

Making Easter Cut Outs

Making Grandma's Millie's Cut Out cookies..yummy!

Just Another Night..........

Yup, this is how I spend my free time. Dressing up.... The girls put make up on Daddy, and they dress up Mommy. I can't lie- I love it. Mostly because the girls think it's so funny. I hope they will remember it- who am I kidding? I will be saving these pictures in my next scrapbook page. 

P.S. I know- I look fabulous in that hat!

Carson Eats Pasta!

The power has shifted in the Hopkins household. I have another pasta fan. So it's 4 to 1 and Dad is the only one who doesn't LOVE pasta. I was starting to get worried, Carson wasn't eating a lot of pasta- but now he is! He thinks those long noodles are pretty funny. And to be honest I know he likes the meat the best, but it is still a victory! Oh- and Grandma- Carson loves red peppers too- another favorite of the Hopkins girls.

Girls' Day- Disney On Ice

Me and my girls. March 7th 2009- Disney on Ice. What's better than hanging out with Sophia and Josephine? And I even got to see hunky Buzz Lightyear. We had 2nd row seats thanks to Daddy. A great day! 

Josephine The JellyBean is 4!

Well, Joey turns four today. I honestly can't believe it! Joey was born on a very sunny March afternoon. After a tough morning- she came very fast! I'll never forget the look on Brad's face because he almost had to catch her! He went out into the hall and shouted to the nurse, "excuse me, this baby is coming out!" So funny! She was born looking very much like her Daddy. Now ,she is a feisty affectionate four year old who has inherited her Daddy's quick wit. She makes me laugh daily and I can't imagine life without her. She is so special and we treasure her uniqueness. Happy Birthday Peanut!
