Easter 2009

This is Emily dressed up for church on Easter morning!

There was an Easter egg hunt at Grandma and Tada's house after church. Here are pics of all the cousins before and after the egg hunt.

Powder Puff Derby

This is a compulation of clips from 4 out of the 5 races Emily's car was in. She won 3 of her heats before she was eliminated. (Her car is the orange one.) The race was in the gym at Sawtooth M.S. today (4/11). Emily's top speed was 61.14 mph!

Spring Break

Emily had a chance to play her fiddle at a nursing home in Richland, WA with her "Great-grandpa Earl" (in the red shirt) and his group that performs. It was a really great experience for her!

Basketball has started!

This was Emily's game last Friday night at our church (game 2). Her team is the Owls and so far let's just say it is a learning year! We have another game this afternoon. I am trying to take videos for Nana andPapa, but I am afraid that anyone watching my video skills is going to get motion sick! It is really hard to watch and record at the same time!

So here, Emily is SUPPOSED to be throwing the ball in during the game, but is much more excited about smiling for the camera! The game isn't nearly as important! What a ham!

Tubing at Bogus on New Year's Day

Emily, Kevin, and I had a good time tubing on New Year's Day up on the tubing hill at Bogus Basin. We were there for 2 house and 30 min. into out time, it started raining...sideways. It was still fun, but we were soaked by the time we were all done.

Idaho Ice World-Christmas Break

Kevin, Cassy, Emily, and her friend Matthew headed to Ice World for an afternoon of ice skating (or ice falling!) over break. We had a lot of fun and it was nice to get out of the house for a while!

Ski Night at Bogus Basin 2009

This was my (Cassy) 3rd year going up to Bogus with Discovery. We went up last Tuesday with around 80 4th and 5th graders. We left school early this year, at 2:30pm, and left the inversion of Boise to head up to the sunny mountain. It was so beautiful up there! Emily took a lesson again while Kevin and I skied down some black diamonds. Once Emily was done, she and I skied together down the easier trails while Kevin skied with his students down the harder runs.

We had a great time and are looking forward to going again next year!
