March is OVER!?


Well, here it is April 1st and we have not posted anything during the month of March!! So I will do one big post for the month!!

The month has flown by, probably because during Spring break week, Joshua and Marianne went to California for a week! What fun.

The kids played soccer in the back yard!

Jacob was Joshua's new hero!

He showed Joshua all kinds of new tricks!

Michaela was the shooter, booting the ball between the "goal posts" AKA the boys' legs.


We went to Monterey and Carmel for 2 days. Joshua just loved the sand at the beach.


The kids did lots of digging.


Joshua was so into all the sand had to offer!

Jacob was digging to China.

The waves became the next fascination, chasing them and then running from them.





It was so fun to watch and photograph!! He was so thrilled.


Michaela was loving it too. She has gotten so tall and more and more beautiful!!



Regina and Mom chatting on the log while they watch the kids.


Oma and her grandchildren.


Beautiful Carmel! Love the Monterey pines.


A few sealions hanging out.


Looks like maybe he was a bit disturbed by the visitors.


Catching some of the warm sun.


California Cutie Pie


Sweet kids!!


Flowers in Pacific Grove.


One of our favorite spots. Pacific Grove, where Charley and I spent one of our honeymoons.





What a beautiful place!!


Charley and Joshua playing in the box that our treadmill came in, while I am inside assembling the thing!!

What a great box!!


Ahh, the spring sunshine!


Well, Angus found a bunny nest under our wisteria bush and we were able to rescue 3 of the bunnies.


They were so very tiny!!

Soft and cuddly.


Charley and Joshua took them to the animal hospital who has a lady who rescues animal babies, rears them and releases them back into the wild!

Bye bye bunnies. We enjoyed having you, sorry we also have a terrier who loves bunnies too!!
