More stuff that happened in April...

Paul and I had planned to take our "babymoon" getaway to Vegas over my birthday in February, but the weather there wasn't much better than in Portland, so we did it in early April. Gavin had a great time staying at Gramma's house, and we had a great time relaxing by the pool at Mandalay Bay, and hitting our favorite restaurants and sights. The weekend went by way too quickly!

By the canal at the Venetian (you can kind of see the early signs of my nasty sunburn)

An Italian dinner on the Piazza and a fabulous chocolate birthday dessert



The next weekend was Easter, and we all met up at my mom's house. It was raining, as it usually does, so we did the egg hunt inside. The toddlers didn't mind at all.


Opening Easter baskets




Our playgroup meets every Wednesday, and in mid-April, we decided we'd take the kids to Woodburn to see the tulip festival. Of course we didn't expect them to care about the flowers, but it always makes for some pretty photo opportunities. They had a great time running up and down the fields, exploring the display of big machinery, and playing in the kid area. As a bonus, the rain held off almost the entire morning.


Buddies: Gavin, Logan, Demir, Brady, and Yohan




Me, my bubba, and the belly bump


Gavin was very mad at me here because I made him sit in the dirt for a group picture. The boy hates getting dirty. :)



Getting to sit on the big machines was definitely the highlight for the boys.


Great-Grandpa should be proud of these two




And of course, Gavin loved the "big fan"
