Sisters!

I swear that they do love each other! Although this picture doesn't quite capture it Lola is actually a fabulous hugger.



This is the last picture I have of Ella as a 3 year old!












And this one is just cute!

Easter

This is the best picture that we got of the girls sitting together thanks to Brenden Rensinks Jell-O Easter eggs!


Here is one with Emmie Rensink in it. I think this may be the only proof we have of their visit thanks to my lousy photography work.
Oh no wait here is part of Julianne!


It really was great to have our best neighbors ever down for Easter!

How to eat an olive. By Ella and Lola Barrera.

ZOO DAY!

In march Grandma and Papa a.k.a Rik and Louann came for a visit and we got our much needed Nebraska fix! The whole visit was fabulous, but I think the high light may have been our visit to the Fort Worth Zoo!































Mint Chip. In case you were wondering! :)

ELLA'S, tear tear, FIRST, sniffle, HAIRCUT. sniff sniff.

Okay, so I was probably the only one crying over this but it really was sad for me. Here are the before and afters. In reverse order sorry, I am new at this. It really does make her hair look thicker!

Our First Bloom!

I was so happy when after absolutly NO work on my part we got a beautiful flower in our front yard! I don't even know what it is ( I think someone said an Iries or something maybe) but I love it!















One plus for Texas, I'm pretty sure it was like the first week of march when I took these pictures of the girls by the flower!











On a sadder note I think only two more ever bloomed anyone know how to fix that?

messy faces!!

Lola started out looking so adorable as usual...

untill the brownie batter was given out. Delicious and very, very messy!

I don't even have a before pictue of Ella, probably because she can sniff out anything with sugar from a mile away and started licking before I could even grab the camara.























One mess that is even harder to clean then brownie...






spaghetti o's. Man that girl can eat!
