Easter was great. We colored eggs the night before and only had one casualty. It was okay though. I'm the only one that eats hard boiled eggs in the house. Eleven eggs was plenty.
Katie only need a few hints to find all the eggs and she was able to follow the clues to her Easter basket filled with, what else, a chocolate Easter bunny and two princess dolls. What more could you want? I'll get to posting the pics on Flickr real soon.
Next up, GmaC and GpaC paid us a visit. As luck would have it, Huzbend was scheduled for an office move and was told to stay home a few days. So, we all got to hang together.
The weather cooperated. It was mostly sunny, although a bit on the chilly/windy side.
Here we are at a zoo/aquarium where we came face to face with a polar bear eating his lunch. Lunch happened to be some kind of animal leg. Yeah. Pretty freakin' sweet. Wish I would've thought to take a picture. Oh well. All you get to see is a lame picture of us walking. Sorry.
After a failed attempt at a waterfall hike - there was, like, a foot of snow on the ground in the mountains - we decided to stick closer to home the next day and visit Seattle Center. We had a nice picnic lunch at the International Fountain and then made our way to the PacSci Center to visit Mars.
Yep. Mars.
Here is Huzbend "walking" on Mars. I will let the photo speak for itself.
Katie had a great time exploring. Here she is flying over Mars. Cape optional.
Mikey had a pretty good time at all these outings too. Wellllll, except for the car rides. He hates car rides.
Here's a picture of "Sad Clown" Mikey on our doomed trip to the mountains. Even prunes wouldn't help.
The rest of the visit was spent hanging around, eating lots of food, doing various chores and getting some quality Granma and Granpa time.
Oh yeah, and riding a motorcycle.
Huzbend and I even got to go to an actual THEATRE and see a MOVIE. The first time since Katie was born. Really. I'm not kidding. We saw "How to Train Your Dragon". In 3d. We had a date. Sigh. It was wonderful.
I'd like to send a big "THANKS" to GmaC and GpaC for everything.
And now, it's time for a little well-deserved nap.....
