Happy Easter!

Family Easter picture time!

Kaleb and Blake... neither would be still, or quiet, or smile long enough to get a good shot of both, but this one is the best we got!

The Kilgore cousins...Anna, Ian, Kaleb and Blake... super cute!!!!

Aww, Les and Jus... Can you see us?... We can't see you, the sun is too bright!

Let's go hunt some eggs!!!

Kaleb and Novalee saw this egg at the same time and both came running....oh no...

Blake saw this egg, but was a little timid about sticking his hand in Nana's bushes....

Got it!

Kaleb found lots of eggs... brother had to come see!

Egg Hunt (cont.)

Kaleb is so sweet....

Woohoo, Blake found another one....

And another one... (he's looking at it like there's a bug on it or something???)

Kaleb decided he was done looking and had a seat with his basket out in the road... crazy boy!

March 5th... Lots of learning going on!

Today Kaleb spent a little time with his Daddy learning how to ride his indoor bike...

Then later came to the kitchen to help Mommy cook!

Big brother Blake also loves to help in the kitchen... he's a good mixer!!!!

Little Climber

Kaleb has discovered lots of new ways to get on top of things...

He uses Blake's chair as a means to get on top of the coffee table!

Look at me... Hahhaaaa! (And by the way, these pics are from the beginning of March, so Kaleb is a little over 13 months old here!)

Dustin and Teycee's wedding

Dustin and Teycee were married on February 28, 2011 at Silcox Hut, atop Mt. Hood in Oregon. It was definitely a "once in a life time" experience and I am so thankful to have been a part!!!!

Family, Food, Fun, Snow, Snow and more SNOW!

What an amazing adventure!!!! Dustin and Teycee planned a destination wedding at Silcox Hut atop Mt. Hood in Oregon on February 28, 2011. The night before my aunt Sheila (Dustin's mom) made an awesome rehersal dinner for all 40 or so guests and we enjoyed getting to meet Teycee's family along with her and Dustin's friends. The next morning we started the day off by just kinda relaxing, hanging out, and taking a dip in the hot tub down by the river while it snowed on us...but once we got word that the snow storm was coming (and a possible 3 feet of snow to fall) everyone went into crazy mode! We quickly got showered, grabbed our clothes, and headed up the mountain to Timberline Lodge, which is about half way up the mountain and the farthest point to which you could drive. Driving in those snow conditions was definitely an experience! And when we stepped out of the car the cold and wind took your breath away, not to mention that you sunk in the snow above the knees!!! After taking a few minutes to finish getting ready, we were able to relax again, eat some lunch and venture around inside the beautiful lodge. We were all amazed at the snow... the lodge was 4 stories high and in most places the snow was all the way up to the 3rd floor! Our next step was to ride in a snow cat the rest of the way up the mountain to Silcox Hut, where the wedding and reception took place. Again another once in a lifetime experience! We piled in the snow cats and with no visability headed up! When we arrived at Silcox Hut it was simply beautiful!!! The wedding was absolutely perfect! The reception was great and so very touching! ..... Getting back down the mountain.... oh man, I don't even know that I have words for it... lets just say crazy, scary driving conditions, cars sliding and getting stuck, tree limbs and power lines down... we didn't even go to bed... just packed up and headed straight to the airport so that we didn't get stuck there!!! And I would do it all again tomorrow!!!!
