Men at Work

We love the new house. However, the backyard was a little too "Eastern Block" for us. So, we gathered a couple of strong friends and went to work. (Well, the guys went to work. Jenna and I took the babies to the park and got some sun. Hey, it was a beautiful day!)
Testosterone

At one point we had Cory on the pick-ax, Pete on the jackhammer, and Rex on the concrete saw. What neighbors?



Five Dudes and a Dog


Apparently hauling out 8,000olbs of concrete is hard work. This is about all I could get out them, as far as "posing" in front of their results.

The Glow


Oh Ms. Gina, you looked so darn cute and happy, I just had to add you to the blog. I'm so glad Wyatt and I got to spend a little time with my beautiful friend. I can't wait to give that baby Daniel a little hug & kiss!

Easter Sunday



After spending some time in mass reflecting on how fortunate we have been this year, we hung out at my mom & dad's for a bit before heading off to our big family get-together in Whittier. (And Dad, I do hope your prayers about winning the lotto are answered..)



Easter at Papo's
We've been celebrating Easter at my grandpa's house since before I can remember. Although this was our first Easter celebration without my grandpa, I know he & my grandma (Papo & Honey) were up there somewhere cheering on Wyatt as he found an astounding 6 eggs (there was a total of 154 that he did not find however).
Easter is the one day when my entire family is able to get together for lunch, an egg hunt, and the infamous confetti-egg war (not for the weak!).
It was great introducing Wyatt to the rest of the Pasillas clan (minus of course our beloved Texans). Anyhow, I'm sure next year he will be one of the top instigators in the confetti war...

Easter Egg Extravaganza

Mama and Holly pose for a picture while Wyatt ponders his strategy for the big hunt.
