Spring Break/Easter

I am off for two weeks (now less than one left), so we have been a little busy. The girls are still going to daycare 2 days a week so that the routine can stay the same as much as possible. Last week we were supposed to go to Tahoe but the weather was bad so we decided to stay home. On Thursday we went to the Folsom Zoo (which is more of a rescue zoo) as was lucky enough to have Richard join us. He had never been there so it was something new for him as well. Camille loved it as did Evelyn. At one point, Camille sat down and just stared/watched the baby chicks that we showed her. It was adorable.

Friday we went to the Sacramento Zoo for a little bit. It was raining so we didn't stay long. After the zoo, we went to Ikea and walked around before having lunch. By then my parents were in town so we headed over to the KOA to see them. Of course the girls fell asleep on the way over so we let them sleep a little while we got to catch up with my parents. Can I just say that I LOVE my parents. They are so much fun! I love seeing them and having them come up to see us.

Saturday, we took Madison to Petsmart (she was stinky) to get a bath and while we were there decided to get Evelyn and Camille a fish tank. After upgrading from a $5 bowl, we found the one we wanted and my mom found the colorful decorations for inside the tank. We were bummed to find out we couldn't get fish that day since the water had to be regulated. We will be getting them tomorrow probably. I will post a picture once we get fish in it. The girls love it already and like to look at it with the light on because it is all neon colors. It is pretty cool. I never had fish growing up so this will be fun.

Sunday was Easter and Richard's birthday so it was a busy day. We had breakfast at our house with my parents (Thanks mom for cooking!) . The girls got their Easter baskets from Uncle Scott and Aunt Nicole (Thank You!) and my parents. We gave them each a book about Jesus or Easter and then 100 Bible songs. After the girls took their naps, we went over to Lavon's for an Easter egg hunt, dinner and then to celebrate Richard's birthday. It was a nice day and the girls looked adorable in their dresses from my parents.

I think that is all for now. The girls are doing good. Camille had another molar come in this past weekend so we wasn't too happy but is better now. I will have to take some video of the girls for everyone to see how much they have changed. It is amazing!
