Just For Fun!
Gabrielle and I were hanging out at my parents house this weekend and decided to be silly... it's always fun to play in the yard. It's even more fun with a three-year-old!!!

2009 Tulip Festival!! We celebrated Mother's day (weekend) at the Capital's Tulip Festival. It was so much fun hanging out in Washington Park,listening to bands play,enjoying the great weather and great friends!! I can't wait till next year! The Tulips were so beautiful too!!!

So we pretty much ate our way through the tulip festival... ok well Gabrielle did anyway! Please let us know who is enjoying thier treat more... Gabrielle and her Cotton Candy or Kelly and her beer?

On the second day we were there I decided to style Gabrielle's hair in true Dutch fashion! She is such a good sport about everything!!

With the beautiful weather here, Gabrielle and I went to visit our friend Sara up at her house on the lake. She taught Gabrielle how to paddle the kayak and before we knew it Sara was sitting back and enjoying the ride!~

So here is a video of Gabrielle working on her back flip at Gymnastics. I know there is some way to post it right to my blog, but for now just click on the link...

From the Indigo Girls to Steve Songs... Gabrielle is quite the concert goer!!

Gabrielle at Gymnastics!
This is Gabrielle at gymnastics. She is with her coach Beth and she has been learning how to do a back flip on the trampoline. This is harder than it looks....

Easter Morning!
Gabrielle has been hoping and praying that the Easter Bunny would bring her a Molly Doll from the American Girl Doll Store. Ever since our visit to NYC at Christmas she has wanted one. Santa had already filled her list, so we said if she was a really good girl, maybe the Easter Bunny would call in a favor! She was so excited!!!! After getting over the shock of actually holding the doll that is now hers, she hunted for eggs that E. Bunny hid around the house!
