UCR Botanical Gardens

On April 22 the kids and I went to the UCR Botanical Gardens. We met our friends, the Abbotts, and enjoyed getting out. Porter loved running around but Annie just wanted to sit in the stroller. We saw lots of cacti, which Porter loved, lots of lizards, a hummingbird and we heard the clock tower from the University.

Redlands Temple

While Grandpa and Grandma were here for Annie's birthday we took them to the Redlands Temple. We take the kids once a month, so we decided to go the same weekend.

Annie's 2nd Birthday

Grandpa and Grandma Brooksby decided to come into town for Annie's birthday so we had a little party for her. Annie helped Grandma decorate her cupcakes.





That morning, before the party, we thought of putting treats into balloons and having each kid pop their balloon to get their treats. We found what treats we could around the house and the kids tried their hardest to pop them. Plastic forks were brought out to help with some.


Annie blew out her own candles and enjoyed her cupcake, with a side of fruit snacks.
