ToothFairy Alert!

The first tooth finally came out. Kate has been waiting for this day to come and was thrilled when Daddy wiggled it around and then was holding it his hand. Kate had a look of disbelief that turned into a great big grin.

New Neighbors


We had a new family move in our backyard. A family of Falcons have been living in the trees behind us and hanging out on the fence just feet away from our house. We realized they were there when they kept running into our windows. We would here a big bang, look out the window and the baby bird (on the right) would run into 5 different windows in the back and then around the side windows too. We think it could see itself in the tinted window. One day I came home and it was sitting on my wreath on the front door. We have loved our new neighbors because they keep the unwanted mice neighbors away :)!

Easter Traditions


Every Easter is busy with coloring eggs....finding Easter baskets....getting beautiful in new Easter clothes for church....and of course the Easter egg hunt that goes on forever because Grammy feels to many Easter eggs :).



Planting Our First Garden


Since we don't have a lot of yard for a garden we planted our first garden at Grumpy's. (Grandpa Hansen)
We have been eating a lot more vegetables these days and drinking a lot of green smoothies. We decided it was time to try and grow some of our own since the grocery bill seems to be getting bigger and bigger. The kids were so excited to help out!

Daddy and Hazen Had a Birthday!

For Daddy's birthday we had the Nielsen's out. Casey wanted them all to come over and celebrate since they are such a big part of who he is today.
