Easter and More.....

For Easter we went to my parents house for an Easter egg hunt and dinner. The kids look forward to this all year long. G'ma and G'pa Green are known for having the best candy in their eggs and really great hiding places! We had a great Easter. Here are a few pictures....

The kids played a soccer game with grandpa and had a blast!

This is Nicolas after the game. His whole head was sweaty!

Matt and I went to "Opening Day" at Petco Park to watch our Padres start out the season. This was the night before Matt's hip surgery. He is now at home for 2 weeks, on crutches for 6 and can't drive that whole time! I pretty much have another kid to take care of now! The surgery went really well so hopefully he will be able to live without hip pain from now on.

The kids had an Easter egg hunt at G'ma and G'pa Staffieri's house also!

Last Sunday evening we went for a walk on the pier. It was such a beautiful sunset. We are so lucky to live here!

California Women's Conference Boutique

Lizzy and I did our first boutique this weekend. It was at the Disneyland Hotel. It was a ton of work but we had a lot of fun. Our stuff made a great hit and we were able to sell a lot! Our website should be done in the next couple of weeks. I will keep everyone posted.

Valentine's Day

Matt and I had a great Valentine's Day. We went to Ruth's Chris down at the harbor. It was an amazing dinner, we were there right at sunset, and then got to walk around the harbor after. It was so nice to have Matt all to myself for once!! I am one lucky girl.....

Ski Trip

Nicolas turned 4 last Tuesday, we dropped Davey off with my mom, Ash, and Marie, and we headed off to Utah for our family ski trip. We had a blast, the kids did amazingly well skiing, and it was very relaxing. We missed Davey dearly, but he was well taken care of and got tons of attention! Here are a few pictures of our trip....

Christmas, New Years, and Matt's 30th!

We had a great holiday season! It was very busy, but lots of fun. Matt took some time off work so we enjoyed having him around more. Here is a glimpse of what we have been up to lately.......

And of course a dance party!

Matt turned 30 over the weekend. We had a little surprise party for him. Here are the kids waiting for us to arrive. (In case you look closely, there is a big picture of the kids that is supposed to go on the wall above the couch. First Nicolas broke the glass. Then I got a new one and while we were hanging it it broke! So now I get to go buy my third frame and hope that three's a charm!)

Matt walking through the door

The only shot we got of him blowing out the candles. I ordered a tiramisu from his favorite Italian place instead of cake. He loved it!
