Hilton Head Island and The girls enjoying their time at home

We had the opportunity to go on an adult trip to Hilton Head Island for a "work" conference for Cassie. It is the same place that we went to for our honeymoon. So we have very fond memories. We once again traveled with our friends, Josh and Jessica Halverson. It was our favorite Mayo trip yet.
While the adults were enjoying time on the beach, playing tennis and golf, and enjoying the sunny weather, the girls were enjoying time with their Grandma and Grandpa Kumpel.

We had some amazing food while in Hilton Head. Lots and lots of seafood.

This was the sunset from Skull Creek Boathouse.

This was the sunset from the Quarterdeck.

We went to Sea Pines Plantation and saw alligators. These were in someone's backyard. I can not imagine having alligators in backyard!!

This alligator was just right off of the path.

The boys had a great time with the Neptune statue. This was a picture that we took of Andy on our honeymoon.



One of our favorite activities that we did was going kayaking in Broad Creek. We saw a bunch of wildlife including dolphins!!!

Grandma enjoying Chloe. Unfortunately Chloe was sick the first couple days that we were gone. She did well overall.



What could be better than Grandpa with bunny ears?

Hannah enjoying her favorite activity.



If you look closely you can see her first teeth :)

Chloe is pulling up on everything and getting closer to walking. She is still pretty unsteady.



This did not actually occur while we were on our trip, but I thought that I would add it in because it was too funny. Hannah found my lipstick and enjoyed putting it on.

"Don't I look beautiful, Mom?" says Hannah

Easter 2011

The girls woke up Easter morning and found that the Easter Bunny had brought them baskets full of gifts that also had butterfly wings attached to the baskets. Hannah really enjoyed wearing the wings around the house.

We had a great day. Tiffany and Chris joined us for lunch at our house as well as Justin, Amanda, and Caleb King. It was pretty low key, but still nice. After lunch, we had a little egg hunt for Hannah in the basement. She did a good job finding the eggs until she got distracted and started organizing all of the eggs by color. She has great organization skills already :)







Hannah had a little Dora dress in her basket. She enjoyed having her Daddy twirl her in circles.







Here is Chloe's egg hunt. She liked picking up the eggs.

We sort of did things a little backwards. We had a very full week leading up to Easter, so we decided to wait and color eggs on Easter evening.

Hannah liked touching each one to see if it was dry.

She really liked the pink eggs! (Hannah told me that I should write that)

Chloe is really getting into eating. Unfortunately we recently found out that she is allergic to milk, eggs, and peanuts. It definitely has posed a problem with introducing new foods to her, but she does not seem to care too much. She loves just about everything we give her.

Hannah loves getting to feed Chloe!

Some day this picture will be valuable in some slide show :)
