Carter lost a tooth....

His first one if you don't count the one he lost by means of hitting his face against pavement.

IE island Lilly Festival ~ Japan

After Easter morning egg hunting we went to IE Island with the Salas family. We had a great time. The boys had a blast riding the ferry to the other island.


Leann's hair on the ferry ride was crazy!!


After taking Allissa's picture with the lilies Joe jumps in and said it was his turn.

Then the boys thought it was manly enough for them to do it.








The best family shot we got that day....oh well.

Our end of the day group shot.


I also took Aaliyah's one year pictures while at the festival. I couldn't decide which one I liked better.



A few pics of the lilies.

Easter

We colored eggs on Friday afternoon. The boys had a great time and Chase was army green afterwards.



Then on Saturday we had an Easter Egg hut with Joe's work. It wasn't the best since it was raining and they had it in the parking garage, but the kids got lots of candy so they thought it was great. It was also my actual birthday, Joe got me another little cake and some flowers.






Then Easter Sunday we woke up and the kids found eggs in the backyard then we headed out to the Lilly Festival on another island.

My birthday at Sam's by the Sea

I had a great birthday dinner at Sam's by the Sea with my girl friends. They also made me a yummy cake it was a chocolate ganache filling chocolate cake and raspberry filling vanilla cake. How lucky am I??? The cake was delish and the company was perfect.

Chaser's Actual Birthday

We went with the Salas Family to the Macaroni Grill for Chaser's actual birthday. We all had a great dinner and more cake.

The CRIME here on Kadena.....

is the worst we have ever seen on any base. During our two years so far we have had 3 scooters stollen, a skateboard, a tricycle and then our cars were broken into. How horrible huh?

This is what my van looked like after they went through everything. I just don't know why the crime here is so bad.

Happy Birthday Chase

We had an awesome backyard party for Chase the weekend before his birthday. He had all his friends come over and play in the water with him. We had a couple of pools and the big waterslide. It was the cutest Lightning McQueen party and he had a blast eating cake, hotdogs and opening presents.











I think everyone had a great time.
