Spring Break!

Before we left for Phoenix, Maeryn spent some quality time with her good friend Olivia!
And her Grandma - YUMMY, Cheesecake!
Flight to Phoenix, taken with my new iPhone, yay!!
We had so much fun on our trip and really got to see and do a lot while we were there.
The first day we went to the Phoenix Children's Museum with Nana and Uncle Mal.
Here's Maeryn and Mal in a HUGE climbing structure inside the museum.
Here is a picture of the beast, but this doesn't even do it justice!
Having fun with vaccume tubes and bright scarves...

Trike Town!
Sand table.
We had been to the museum once before but there were so many more things
that we got to see and do this time that we missed the last time.  I think there were
some additions to the museum, plus it made a huge difference that she was
a year and a half older than the first time we went.
Playing House - this was too cute!
One of our favorite parts was the play grocery store!
Not sure who had the most fun...
Nevermind, I know the answer to that!
Making our lunch - stone-oven pizza!

Another favorite, the Ice Cream Shoppe!
Back at Pops' house for dinner and a little light reading!
Adorable!
Like I said, we did a LOT...
Later that night, we went with the boys to a huge trampoline and bounce house place.
Again, not sure who enjoyed themself the most...


Nice flip Drew!
Day two, Spring Training Baseball!
Giants vs Diamondbacks

We sat in the lawn, right next to the fence in center field.
Beautiful day!
Hanging with Pops and Drewpy.  :-)
Day three, lunch at In 'n Out Burger!
You go girl!
That night Nana had everyone over to celebrate my b-day.
Cute pic of Maeryn and her Drew.
Fun with bubbles before dinner.


Maeryn and Angela playing with her sticker book.
Mom made an AMAZING dinner...
Check out this lasagna!

And by far the best carrot cake I have EVER had!
Lunch with Pops on our last day.  They were all smiles!
This was taken after we got home, but I just LOVE that smile,
and yes, her hair is officially out of control.

St. Patty's Day 2012

St. Patrick's Day "Green" Party in Maeryn's class at school.
Maeryn brought stickers and sharded them with her friends.
Maeryn and Miss Becca.
The "Two's" Class! 

Cottleville St. Patrick's Day Parade
Our subdivision had a float in the parade and we had soooo much fun
celebrating our Irish heritage with our friends and neighbors!

Maeryn and little Piper hanging out pre-parade in the back of the truck.
The best that truck has ever looked!  Eat your heart out Bob...  ;-) 
Piper Mae, how cute is she?! 
The Clanton kids, with Maeryn and Piper, just hanging out! 
She was sooo proud of herself when she discovered this cute little trick...

Smart girl hitched a ride on a golf cart for about half of the parade route.

Classic Pic! 
Maeryn with our next door neighbors Meaghan and Olivia. 
The Crazy little town of Cottleville. 

Kevin, Jessie and Connor Lord - we just happened to see them in the crowd! 
Random man on stilts. 
BEADS! 
Maer-bear waving her Irish flag with pride, that's my girl! 
Lucky Kevin, driving the truckster! 
Another family-friend of ours, the Adams', discovered in the crowd. 
We had a blast in the parade and shortly afterwards the heavens opened up and a down-pour began.
Thank goodness we had the truck right there!!!
