Open Door

I've always wanted to be that house in town that had an open door to everyone. I've admired those parents that let their kids always have friends over to play, to eat, to study. But there is just something in my make up that has prevented me from being open to this idea. I guess I'm always worried about my house being clean enough, toting kids around in my car, etc. Well Kasey has let me know that none of that is a worry and so we've had an open door for some time now. I've enjoyed every moment of it. Kambell and Kinlee have loved it the most. They just love to have playmates and cousins and friends over. They are so great at entertaining and playing and sharing...well most of the time. Here are some cute moments.

So if you or your children want to come over one afternoon...our door will be open.

Our Easter Activities


Start at the bottom, I uploaded the pics in the wrong order...one of these days I'll learn how to blog correctly :o)

Kambell couldn't climb high enough or go far enough down stream...she loved exploring.

We headed to Succor Creek Sunday afternoon to see the sights and roast some hot dogs. Grandma thought the girls should partake in some boulder hopping in the creek.

She loved the Laffy Taffy ...can you tell by her teeth?

Kinlee was ready for her big moment and she collected her 3 eggs. Homedale needs to step up with the Easter Eggs for next year!!!

Kambell thought she hit the jackpot and that she was an expert at egg hunting now. So poor Kinlee got several lessons.

Here are Kambell, some of her classmates and Kinlee (she loves her sunglasses).

Kambell colored Easter Eggs for her preschool egg hunt. She was quite proud...can you tell?

Playing at the Park







Recently the Homedale Park got a new piece of equipment. Whenever we went into town the girls would beg to go play on the new slides and swings. So I decided we'd stop by and try it out. We ended up loving it so much that we've been there twice this week. The first time we tried it out with our neighbor Emma. The second time Kinlee decided she'd go as "rock star Kinlee."
