Washers

A fun game was played on Easter (it was also your cousin Kenle's b-day party) by the adults called "washers". It's kind of a mix between horse shoes and bean bag toss. You have a team of two and you stand opposite of each other. There are these plat forms with holes in them and you try to throw these "washers" into on of the three wholes and you score points. Anyways, your dad and uncle Jay played your grandma & great grandma. It was a HOOT. Guess who won? The ladies...whoop whoop:) Here is some pics of them in action:

Easter weekend seems like so long ago…. that’s just how far behind I am on keeping up with the blog. My life has been full with driving to and from work (one hr each way) and then of course working (M-F), playing outside with you in the beautiful weather, and sleeping. By the end of the day I am one exhausted pregnant momma. I am not complaining at all, I'm just stating the facts. Oh ya and I've had some sister time with my girls, I can't forget that:)
As far as Easter goes, it was a great weekend with the fam. It had been a long time since we had seen our family in Loup City. We hung out at the lake, played in the sand box, and went on an Easter egg hunt. It was a nice relaxing weekend spent as a family! Since moving home we are amongst family all the time and we love it! We are blessed!

You are going to be a Big sister...



to a baby sister:)
Due to arrive: August 4th, 2010


Second...
We moved to Nebraska this past weekend!!! Mommy got a job in Omaha at the hospital so we packed our belongings and headed North-bound to the "Good Life".
(I recently realized that not everybody gets why we call it the good life. I have a friend who thought myself and another Nebraskan just really think it's the "good life", which we do:)...but the real reason why we call it that is because when you enter the state of Nebraska it says "Welcome to the Good Life")

So I wasn't kidding when I said big changes are happening in our lives right now. All of the changes are FANTASTIC but with change comes a tad bit of stress and busyness. You have been doing great with the move and it doesn't seem to affect you in anyway. This is probably because we are living with Grandma and Grandpa Dorsey momentarily and you are so used to this house. This was like your second home when we lived in Kansas:) Plus you are being spoiled rotten by those grandparents of yours:)

As far as being a big sis, you don't seem to have a clue. I have tried to breach the subject but you are not too interested. I don't blame you, you have a lot going on. You will get it soon and you know what kiddo.. you are going to be the best big sister, I just know it:)

p.s. to all the blog readers.. please don't comment about the baby news on my wall on Facebook...I will explain later. Thanks:)

Busy busy

We have been crazy busy lately with a lot of changes going on in our lives. I will have to take time to explain it all as soon as I get a spare minute:) In the mean time here are some pics of you in the past couple weeks...

Family pic

I had been meaning to share this picture but never got around to it. This is a picture of our famiy. The Dorsey/Holmquist/King family. We took this before Christmas time. I think it turned out rather good if I do say so myself. It was a cold bitter day as it has been in these parts the past few months. You are so ready for it to warm up outside. The other day you said "Harper Outside" and looked towards the door. That same day week we went to Target in the morning and it was like 17 degrees outside or something crazy like that. I let you walk from the car to our front door. You decided to take the snowy grass route towards the street. You were do upset when I came to bring you inside, it was like the cold weather didn't phase you. I feel ya sister, I want to be frolicking in the springtime flowers too. In due time we will do just that. Today it's getting up to nearly 50. It feels like swim suit weather;)
