Afternoon @ Liberty Park

We have finally finished up most of our house upgrades and can have our weekends back!  Yesterday afternoon we went to Liberty Park, fed the ducks and then walked over to have some fun in the water...

Nothing entertains kids more than WATER

It was National Donut Day too and I didn't even get a shot of our yummy donuts...we gobbled them up too fast!

First Hike of 2013

Yesterday we hiked Waterfall Canyon in Ogden...it was beautiful! 

Made it to the top!

Grandma Allen's Bday - catch up

Grandma Allen's birthday was April 13th and celebrated all weekend long...here's just a bit of the fun that was had :)

We started with a "Tour Around the World" meal from Noodles and Co.

Maia could not wait for Grandma's actual birthday to give her her presents, so she got them a day early.

More dinner and handmade gifts from Maia :)

Handmade soap from Maia...

Of course she also has to open other people's gifts for them...

Happy Birthday Grandma!

Zoo Day - catch up

On April 21st we had a Martin Family Zoo Day! 

Here we are excited to go :)

All the animals were out for us to see...

The weather was perfect and we had so much fun!

Build-a-Bear Day with Mom!

Yesterday we had a Mom and Maia day.  Maia decided she wanted to go to Build-a-Bear and of course Little Miss Animal Lover picked a puppy!

Here she is "stuffing" it

Here she was doing the "heart ceremony"

Then she took her puppy a "dry" bath :)

Then we picked out some cute clothes and got her dressed!

and last but not least, Maia had to name her puppy and print out a Birth Certificate:

Welcome to the family "Brownie"!

Easter Sunday

Easter was a little uneventful this year as our house is in complete disarray but we still celebrated.  First Maia immediately went to her Easter basket...even though she was still half asleep ;)

Then Maia got all dolled up for church with Grandma:

Here she is getting ready for the hunt:

Later in the day we went to see Master Mender...Maia was being a butt while we were waiting for it to start.

We ended the night with some fabulous dinner at Olive Garden with family and a friend :)
