April showers...

Since Jacki & Todd had little Avie, the Anderson clan came into town. Monica Anderson is Jacki's older sister. We love the Andersons and love it when they come for a visit. Here we are a few days after Avie was born, hiking Multnomah Falls on a lovely April spring day!

Hiking up! Jay pushing both kids...

There was a Kids Fest at the Expo Center in Portland and thanks to our dobles, who had extra tickets, we joined in on the fun!

Sawyer and Gwen on the slide... they could have played on this all day!

Checking out the animals...

Soy LOVED this...

Oscar and Finn just hanging out...

Jay told Gwen to "cheese" for the camera and she looks at him and says "cheese".

Gotta love the hair...


I think I mentioned before, but Jay & I were coaches of a U5 soccer team. Both Sawyer & Quinn were on the team along with a few other little friends. Wow! It was awesome. Hilarious at it's best! These little kids are so adorable and to watch each one of them out there with their little personalities was so great! Here are just a few pictures...

Morning sunshine! Yeah, the game was at 11:30 ;)

Quinn... hands on hips and everything. Love it!

Quinn kicking the ball...

A Grandma of one of the kids made all these cute hats!

Our #1 fan!

Oscar content, possibly bored in his stroller..

Water fight! Soy chasing Josh...
Gwen not giving up on the egg hunt?

Continuing water fight (on the right) ... Dusty got me good!


We had another Easter egg hunt at my parents... I don't have any pictures of the egg hunt, but here are a couple of pictures of the kids hanging out....

Jay with Oscar, Quinn doing the splits, Finn trying to get through and Gwen eating as much chocolate as she possibly can.



Soy & Quinn... BFF!


On a little bike ride...
I don't think either of them combed their hair that day...


Sup?

The Gwenners!

And that's April in a nutshell...
