photo booth at volunteer training

At the volunteer training we had for Orchard Kids, we had a fun photo booth that the teachers and some families could take pictures in. We had a blast with it. Here's some pictures of our family.

dear anonymous

I guess with facebook, twitter and blogs , everyone has a voice. Any person can easily say something and then hide behind the computer screen. Anybody can be "anonymous" and feel confident to put their opinion/garbage out there.

And some coward did. On my blog. On my comment section.

So...

Dear Anonymous,
Thanks for the comment. Thank you for feeling so bothered by me that you needed to take time to write an anonymous comment on my blog. Sorry, if the comment doesn't hold much weight with me considering you wrote it anonymously. Please feel free if you have any more cowardly "anonymous" comments to leave, to do so. However, please forgive me if I disregard and delete it.

Since Ava's birthday is near to Easter, we decided this year we would have an Easter-themed birthday party.

*Please know there are a mammoth amount of pictures in this post!

Opening gifts. Ava got so much good stuff... a Rapunzel dress, a trampoline, the littles pet shop and the video, Despicable Me. Just to name a few!

We had an Easter egg hunt for the kids in the backyard. Lila's not quite sure what's going on.

Such a cutie!
