Arvada Kite Festival 2012!

A highlight of living in Arvada is that we can walk to the annual kite flying festival.  It's a great day with hundreds of nighbors flying kites all at once! 



Olivia got her first face paint at the festival...watch how funny she is about the air brushing...did you know they air brush face painting these days?!?!



Here is the end result!



Beautiful Girls!

One of the really fun things about Harlow joining our family is how she has really starting interacting with us, especially Olivia.  Harlow loves her big sister Olivia and whenever Harlow hears Olivia, she gets really excited and starts kicking and smiling. Olivia loves Harlow, but we can tell that Harlow thinks Olivia is one of the best things about life so far!



Our little ballerina in the making...

Cute, big eyed baby Harlow!

Crazy Olivia, never failing to show off her style!

The girls!!

Nonna and Papa Tu;s Visit to Meet Baby Harlow!

We started April out with a visit from Nonna and Papa Tu!  It was a great way to bring in Spring!  We had lots of time for playing and laughing....

Swinging and enjoying the sun...

Posing for pictures...

Snuggling up...

Posing for more pictures...

Visiting the railroad museum (wow - lots of trains!)...

  And checking out the aquarium...

O's Photo Skills

Olivia loves taking pictures and she's getting pretty good at it.  These pictures are all onces that she took and she can actually get people in the frame now...here are here best pictures yet!



Confetti Mayhem!!

Nothing beats our Easter tradition...the all out crazy confetti egg event!  Every year, before you realize what is happening, confetti eggs are getting smashed on any head in sight!  Even the babies...and we all love it! 

GrandMag actually looks pretty with confetti on her head! 

Even the 3 month old is not spared (i.e. her aunt used her as a shield!)

And here is our annual Easter family photo.  This year, we had a few extra Varda's in the picture (Nonna and Papa Tu!)...look closely this is the "make a funny face" photo - and it's pretty hilarious!

Followed by our "set up the camera on a hill" photo - but everyone is actually looking forward, hopefully making up for the off-centered picture!

Beautiful Easter People
