We've been married 16 years!! We celebrated by going to Taste of Knott's on our anniversary. It was really yummy with so many boysenberry options. It was also fun to go out with just the two of us.

Moving
We moved to Fullerton!
We got the keys on March 20, but we had a few projects we wanted to do before moving in, so we didn't move until April 19. Most of the little projects got done...one large project is still in progress.
We celebrated getting the keys by having a BBQ. Our new neighbors came over and introduced themselves while we were there. They were excited to see more kids move to the neighborhood.
Here are some pictures of some of our projects... Robbie built some new furniture.
We spray painted the outdoor furniture.
Lydia put epoxy on the garage floors.
Brian and Robbie mounted a TV under the pergola.
We had a few fun nights with our last ward before moving to the new ward. Luckily we aren't far so we will keep in touch. The youth would get together once a week to play ultimate frisbee with the missionaries.
Saying goodbye to the YW. They were so sweet and fun to serve. They kidnapped Lydia and I for ice cream at Frostbites one evening.
Moving day arrived. Catherine didn't know what to think. The new people and loud moving noises made her nervous. She was so excited when our neighbors came over with a plate of goodies to snack on for moving day. We will miss our good neighbors.
Doing homework at the new house before our stuff arrived.
We have a lot of cool birds at our new house! Hummingbirds, mockingbirds, robins....Catherine is looking them up.
We even had the famous Steve the peacock come visit us. Bobby, Jesi and Liam were all there when he showed up. We were happy to have family come visit. I wish I had gotten more photos with them.
Our new ward has been so welcoming. After only 2 weeks we've had 2 come to visit us to welcome us to the ward. We also had one invite family us for dinner on last Sunday. It was nice to get to know some new friends.

Easter
We had a fun and relaxing Easter. They kids loved their traditional Easter egg hunt in the morning before breakfast.
Catherine's Birthday
Catherine turned 4 years old! She loves everything Mickey and 'mingos (flamingos). We are still waiting to go to Disneyland from last year when everything shut down. We are hoping this summer we can actually celebrate for her there.
She's happy, smart, loving, and the best little sister in the family.
She wanted flamingo sprinkle cupcakes with blue frosting to represent water.
opening presents
She also had her 4 year old check up. She's healthy and 85% for her height and weight.
In-Person Primary
Last month the kids returned to in-person Primary. It was Catherine's first time going to Sunbeams. We go 1 hour before our worship service and the kids meet in the outdoor nursery section. They sit in families instead of by class. My kids have loved seeing everyone in -person again!

Lately
The kids have been distance learning since Christmas, so I haven't had much time on the computer to update the blog. Here's a few highlights about what we've been up to lately.
Robbie and Lydia worked on a puzzle together during Zoom church.
We had a day at our park playing. We recreated a picture I have of the kids like this from when Cat was a baby.
We bought a house! We are moving to Fullerton in a few months. We are excited for this new adventure.
We had a weekend in Rancho Mirage again. We love relaxing here a few times a year.
Robbie had a snow day with the YM. They had fun sledding and being together in person.
