April Fools

I guess the joke is, that I'm actually posting! It's not that I haven't had anything to post, just that I've been so busy in other directions. But, here are some pictures to catch up on what we've been doing around the Wall home. We went to Boise this last week, and had a great time. While in Boise we spent an afternoon at Celebration park and got to picnic and had quite an adventure. We even got to find hieroglyphics on rocks. We had a great time.
Adi decided to draw her own hieroglyphics in the sand.

Learning to throw arrows like the Indians did.

Mom and Dad at the picnic.

Jed was LOVING Charlie.

Even if Charlie is special! :)

We had a picnic, and just enjoyed the amazing weather. (Look how dirty she is!)

At celebration park they had this neat bridge! I took some pics of the girls on it in their Easter Dresses. I love those little sweeties....sauciness and all.

While staying in Boise we went to the Fablehaven, Brandon Mull book signing. Kira and Reese were thrilled. He was so nice. I got a book for my nephews, I can't wait to give it to them since they couldn't come. He was such a nice guy.

Craig got some new goats, and we went over to play. Adi got to feed Sophie. It was a little chilly, but fun.

Adelynn was playing dress up and used nearly all of her Tu-Tu's and dress up clothes, and then topped it off with one of my tanks. CUTE!

St. Patricks day dinner. We had everything green, including green Chicken Bacon Artichoke Pasta, salad, green ranch, juice, and jello cake.

Adi had dance on the 17th, so I made her a St. Patty's tu-tu and bow. She was so excited because of having learned about it at Pre-school the day before.

All dressed for Preschool. Pretty stylish and sassy little thing, don't you think?

Emersyn has 2 best friends, her lamb, and her blanky. We blame Grandma for getting her such cozy gifts! Here is lamb after Emi situated her to read a book. She even shared her favorite book. How nice.


Here is Emi putting Lamb night night and giving her kisses. (that's her toddler bed. She sleeps perfectly in it. No problems still!)

Ahh! Giving Lamb some loves.


Here is her other best friend, and one true love...Blanky! We can't go anywhere without it, seriously.

She loves that blanky. Oh my.

And if you made it through this...Oh my to you too! Thanks!

Happy April Fools everyone!

Looks like so much fun with everyone! How fun you got to go to Boise too and see family. We are getting so excited for the Family reunion and seeing everyone then. Only 2 1/2 months away. Your girls are just so darling! I'm sure you know. And I don't blame Emi at all. One those grandma blankets are amazing and I was a blanket girl too, there is nothing like a good blanket!

I asked Caleb where you were last time at dance class. He said you were packing for Boise. Glad you could get away and it looks like you had a great time.
Love the St. Patrick pics. You are the cutest mom! Your girls are lucky to have you.

Jen and Cody said...

Cute pictures! Your girls are beautiful as always! I was actually thinking of you this April Fools Day. I kept thinking about the trick you played on Caleb and making him think Emi was twins. Classic! Hope you are doing well. Miss you!

Camille said...

Ashley, I just giggle every time I read your blog because your girls are too cute! I love little Miss sassy-pants! Awesome St. Patty's day dinner. You're so festive!

The girls are so cute & I cannot believe how big Emi is getting! I'm glad you were able to go to Boise to visit your fam! I'm wondering though--am I invited to the family reunion, since I did go with you once ?!? Hope you guys had a great Easter!

Chance and Beth said...

Ok the lamb reading the book thing is adorable and I can't stop laughing at Adi's dress up picture. She looks a little busty for her age. Also thanks for the comment on my blog. It really helps.

Leesa said...

You have such fun posts! I was never such an imaginative mother, doing such happy things as green meals on St. Patty's day. How do you come up with your clever ideas and then carry through with them?

Rhonda said...

Awww.. I loved all of the pics. Esp the one of them in their dresses. That little Adi have some sassified personality, doesn't she? Love her emsembles! By the way, I think it's so sweet that Emi has her little wubbies! Or maybe it just makes me feel better that talia is OBSESSED with her baby & I like knowing someone else feels the same way! (Either way, Emi is just too cute for words!)
By the way, DUDE! Why don't we live by each other???? Cause we would totally be friends in real life!

Amanda said...

I love your green dinner, and you even made a green tu-tu for St. Patricks Day. I'm impressed!!! You're girls are so cute.

However did Adi move in all that gear? (Maybe she didn't?) That was hilarious. Her little body underneath all those clothes!

Love the bridge picture.
