Mother's Day/Haley's 8th Birthday

We have lots of moms in our family plus it was Haley's birthday so we had LOTS to celebrate!! To top it all off, Grandma Joyce is back from Florida. It is so nice having her home again. Needless to say it was a very "full" family day. We gathered at my mom and dad's house. My dad grilled some chicken and sausage on the grill and my mom prepared all the delicious sides. The birthday girl picked the dessert...dirt cake...yummy! Gifts were exchanged and food was eaten! To make this day even more special, Haley lost her 5th tooth! It was one of the two front teeth. She will be getting a visit from somebody special tonight. It was a very nice day.

Easter 2009

Better late than never! I haven't been doing a good job updating our blog so my post is a tade bit late. We celebrated Easter at the Rivera's house. As usual, we had a wonderful spread with lots of food and great company. The kids all got Easter baskets overflowing with toys and candy. We finished the day with flying kites in the backyard. The weather was beautiful.

It took the boys a few practice rounds, but soon the kites were flying high in the air...until it got stuck in a tree.
