VISITORS FROM KC & UT

For Spring Break we were so lucky to have Jolynn, Taylor, Beckham & Tippy come and visit us. We all had so much fun while they were here, Abby & Ally love playing with their cousins. Here are a few pics from their visit.

Abby & Ally thought Aunt Jolynn was so cool....she let them play in the giant swimming pool, also known as Grandma's back yard in the spring.....I thought she was pretty cool too, she took care of all the clean up including the laundry from this event.
Going on a walk
Jolynn, Tippy, Mom & Me playing "clue", our new favorite game......although you cannot leave the table or lots of cheating will occur.....I won't mention any names, Jolynn.

OUR NEWEST COUSIN

The girls were very excited to welcome their very first cousin on the Rekstad side of the family. Kari Marie was born on March 8, 2009. She is so very very cute, the girls had a blast going to meet her. They were fighting over who got to hold her first, I think Abby won that one. Congratulations Derek & Kirsten!!! We are very excited to see the girls all grow up together!
