Another one for the grandmas. As always, she's a little distracted by the camera. My favorite is W (bubble-bu).

The Past Month
Here is a picture update of the most exciting things going on in our family - not surprisingly, they all have to do with Carli. Really, when I tried to think of what has been going on in the last month, not much came to mind. Just waiting for the weather to warm up, which it finally has!
Yes, this is our little piano virtuoso at the age of 17 months. She has started to mimic most of the things we do. It's especially funny to watch her with my Beehives (12-13 year old girls). She thinks she's one of them - she giggles just like them and everything.
Sadly enough, this is the only picture I got of her in her Easter dress from Nana, and it's not even with her cute hat. :( Oh well, she's still cute.
We had Easter dinner with Ben, Rachel and their girls and some friends. It was really nice to be with family to celebrate Christ's resurrection.
Here are the girls searching for eggs (with Logan's help).
Carli needed a little encouragement to find the hidden eggs, so this was quite a success for her to grab one on her own.
The weather has finally turned warm around her and we can't be more thrilled about it! We spend all the time we can out there, restocking our vitamin D stores. I love Carli's little ponytail in this one.
This is the look I get when Carli is testing me and my reaction. I told her to keep her hands away from that corner because there were spiderwebs. As you can see, she wants to see if I'll say the same thing the next time she does it, and the next, and the next. . .
I can't get enough of this face. . .
but the next two are some of my all-time favorites.
Don't you just want to pinch those cheeks?!
These videos will probably only be interesting to the grandma's, so be warned. The first one is of some of the new phrases Carli says. The second one is her counting to 10.
P.S. I am going to start another blog about, well, basically living. Kinda like Martha Stewart's Living, only real life, not fancy dinner parties every weekend life. I finally wrote about how I budget food and thought it would be fun to have a place to put that kind of stuff. So, I'm hoping for your feedback and input. I'd love it if you'd all contribute, so when I figure out a name for it I'll post it!

Chad and Brynn
A couple of weeks ago I had the fortunate opportunity to travel home to Oregon to participate in the wedding of my dear friend Chad and Brynn, his bride. It was wonderful to spend time with my family, see old friends, and most importantly witness Chad's wedding. The festivities were fun, the ceremony went off without a hitch, Brynn was a beautiful bride, and I was reminded why Chad is such a good friend on mine. Chad, it was an honor to be part of your wedding and great to get together. One piece of advice if I may be permitted, love and cherish your wife Brynn "even as Christ also loved the church and gave himself for it" (Ephesians 5:25), your marriage will be better for it. I know that you got a good one, it seems that somehow, you ended up as lucky as I.
