Craving a little Crawfish!

Since we've moved to San Antonio we haven't had the opportunity to eat some yummy crawfish! So, I saw one day a local seafood restaurant was having a Crawfish Boil, so we decided to give it a try. It was so much fun. Live music, a playground for the kids, and some pretty delicious crawfish! A fun way to spend a Saturday while our house was being shown.

Easter 2010


Happy Easter 2010! It was so much fun getting Sophie and Tanner ready for Easter Sunday! General Conference was over Easter Weekend so I dressed them up the week before to church. As you can see by the pics...Tann Tann isn't much into photo sessions.

Tanner's 1st Birthday!


Happy 1st Birthday Tanner Boy! Your day was such a special day! We started the day off by going to Build-A-Bear with Grandpa and Sissy and made a bear for your Teddy Bear Picnic Party! You chose (with the help of sissy) a really cool tan bear and ended with a nice polo shirt and khaki shorts. Then we came home and had a yummy BBQ with the Marelli family, Jessop family, and Grandpa Hart and Grandma Kit. You were a little overwhelmed with all the excitement and a tired from our long day at Sea World the day before. You took a little cat nap while the other kids went on a "Bear Hunt"..Mommy read them the book "We're Going on a Bear Hunt!" and then they took their bears on a Bear Treasure Hunt! Guess what they found? A Pinata !!! They hit the pinata and got a lot of yummy candy. Then we woke you up for cake and icecream...and as you can see in one of the pictures you were a little sensitive. Then we opened of presents and you LOVED what you got! I hope you had a wonderful Tanner! We love you SOOOOOOOOOOO much! You are the best boy in the whole wide world!

Admiring his little teddy bear on top his cake...he tried to eat and I quickly took it (since there were toothpicks in it..and well guess what happened next!)
He wanted his Teddy Bear!
Pinata Fun!

Grandpa Hart and Grandma Kit Visit!

We were so excited to have more visitors! Since San Antonio is so far away from family we don't get a whole lot of visitors. So, when we do it makes us so happy! Grandpa Hart and Grandma Kit came and visited us for the weekend. We went to the Riverwalk, Sea World and celebrated Tanner's 1st Birthday. We had so much fun!

Sophie Dance and Friends


This is what I dreamed of when I found out I was pregnant with a girl. I was so excited to put her in dance class. I grew up dancing and still have a love for dancing. Sophie loves dancing too! I know she will have many more pictures of her dancing to come in the years.
