Lashley Reunion April 2010

It didn't take long for all that playing to catch up with them. They had a great time.

Clay and Clara had a great time swinging together. They would let Tracy and I know when they needed to be pushed again.

Ellen loved the old metal slide. She learned that with her legs held high, she would go faster.

Of course, we couldn't leave home without Minnie.

Disney 2010

Minnie was Clara's favorite character. She came home with a Minnie t-shirt and Minnie doll. When we arrived at the gates, she was yelling "Minnie"?















Ellen and Clara on the Merry Go Round.

Clara loved the teacups. She was trying to spin it herself. This pic was taken during action.

Daddy and Ellen on Dumbo. Clara loved this ride too.

I think this is a cool picture.

We couldn't get either of the girls to warm up to any of the characters. But they do love to see them...from a distance.

I never thought I would use a leash on one of my kids. In fact I used to look down on parents that did use them. Then I got my own kids. Ellen was always thankful to use it, b/c she could get down and have that freedom. Clara turns into a monster when she has it on. She wants her independence w/out limits.

The morning after our first day.

We were so glad that Uncle T was able to go with us.

Easter 2010

Garett and I were hoping to get more pictures of Easter this year. But we are learning that with an extra child, it gets harder to do so. Clara keeps us busy and on our toes. As you can see from the pictures, she did not stop. And she was laughing and loving every moment of it.

I was thankful to get a picture with Garett's Papa and Grandmother. I think this is the first one we've had with them and our family of four. Thank you Ellen and Clara for being still for 2 seconds.
