Springtime in Boise

Cecilia is ready for 1 of 3 Easter Eggs hunts this season

But first she must use the clues left by the Easter Bunny to find eggs around our house

The line up before the hunt

Post-hunt fun

Planting sunflower seeds with Gramma

Keeping her brother entertained while mama cooks dinner

Balloons just may be this girl's best friend

Two cute chefs

One cute boy

Two sweet kids

Spending the night at Grama & Grampa's house is the best!

And just for fun...
Cecilia & the BOB in the Bay Area:

people watching on the BART is so much fun

A wander through Chinatown on our way to the Wharf.
Yes, even though we lived in this city and know all of it's greatest nooks we still hit up the tourist hot spots.

 

When living in Boise, one must visit a Trader Joe's before heading home
