Barcelona!

We all were excited to visit Barcelona! Mostly for the weather- sunny and 70s!
 Our first stop was Park Guell.  

 Next: the beach, but we had to pass through the bubbles to get there.
We came upon a fair while we were strolling back from the beach.
 Third: Montserrat


Kate hiked this particular trail mostly by herself.  She is best when climbing is involved.  Jane, well, she slept the whole time.  Haha!


 Lastly, we visited my brother and his beautiful wife at Sagrada Familia.
 Best family picture we could get! Check out Kate's cute bum!
 Kate at Plaza Catalunya.
 Eating all the food at the street market on La Rambla.
 Best street performers we've ever seen on La Rambla.

And we had to go to the aquarium, since we have been reading books about it- kid friendly too! Plus, we needed a little time away from the sun!

April happenings 2017

The girls and I watched our friends dogs for a couple days.  It was very helpful for Jane's fear of bigger dogs.  
 Kate and Jane running towards each other during kindergarten pick up.  They love each other so much, but also love to fight so much.  Haha!
 Dinosaur park with our friends-
 Sammy, Toni, and Lucy.
I took an overnight girls trip to Cesky Krumlov, Czech Republic with Leanne and Meagan.  We chatted way too late into the night, ate Czech food, and toured the city.
Always some crazy weather in Parsberg during the spring.  
Bryan spent two weeks in the field (March 19-March 30) and earned his Expert Field Medical Badge (EFMB).  So happy for him and glad to have this over with! (especially if you know the history)
Oh yeah! Movers came and packed up our crap.  Really hoping my polish pottery makes it safely!

Easter 2017

We celebrated Easter a little earlier due to our upcoming move.  



It has been fun to see Kate remember holidays from previous years.  She couldn't wait to color eggs and hide them. Oooh! and candy too!
 Jane just wanted to play with the plastic eggs.
 Searching for eggs on Easter morning.  We filled them up with jelly beans. 

 Painting some ceramics the Easter bunny left in their baskets.   

The military base had an egg hunt for the little kids.  Jane would not come close to the Easter bunny for a picture.  Poor girl does not like life-sized costumes.
