Pittsburgh Zoo and Aquarium April 2011

I love going to the zoo and Pittsburgh's does not disappoint. It is a blast with great animals and is really well done. We got a season pass so I'm excited to go over and over again!















So Kinley had this orange...

Until she dropped it. So we threw it in the gorilla cage and watched what happened. This one took the effort to climb down to get it.

This one saw and sat at the top and waited.

When he came up he is bigger so chased him down until he surrendered

He got the orange....what a bully but funny to watch!

Easter

On Saturday me and a good friend went to an Easter Egg Hunt on a farm. It was great weather and the kids had a blast. We took a hay ride to bunny mountain and were greeted by the Easter Bunny himself (picture #2). We did an easter egg hunt and the kids did some awesome hunting. Then they just had face painting and a balloon bounce toy. It was fun!

Happy LOVE day!

My mom is so wonderful and gave me and the kids a valentine's package! She got Kinley this outfit and it is soooooo cute on her! I got Mom's Candy Kitchen chocolates to share with Brandon of course.....

I just redid these letters to match Kinley's new big girl room and I love how they turned out they were just pink before! When her room is finished I will post pictures because it is going to be so cute!

This is the love of my life! I realized I never posted our family pictures! There were some of just me and brandon and I loved them! Man do I love this guy!

Brandon's 30th Birthday

Brandon turned the big 30 this last month so we had to celebrate! Brandon's mom made a great dinner and then we had Black Tie Mousse Cake from the Olive Garden our favorite and as you can tell Kinley loved painting with it! For his gift this year I gave him the experience of racing an Asten Marten on the Las Vegas Speedway! He said it was awesome and stupid me forgot my camera I was really mad but oh well. These will have to do!
