Hot Tub Fun

We really enjoyed the hot tub that was right next to the cabin. Lottie enjoyed singing with Aunty Karen.

Logan and Kayleigh cuddled with Uncle Shane.

Adam hung out with Daddy.

Easter Egg Hunt

Gram and Bapa organized an Easter egg hunt while we were in Fredericksburg. First the kids got to decorate their buckets.

Then it was out the door to hunt the eggs!

There were more eggs hiding in the fence.

Adam helped Kayleigh open her eggs.

The kids had a great time hunting, opening, and eating their eggs. Thanks, Gram and Bapa!

Country Cabins

We really enjoyed staying at these cabins just outside Fredericksburg. Fredericksburg is so small that it was only about a five minute drive from the main street to the cabins. Lots of land, with lots of wildlife. The kids enjoyed the herd of mule deer. Lottie had no fear.

There was also a beautiful field of yellow wildflowers right next to the cabins. Photo shoot!

We were even able to bring the dogs! Adam enjoyed taking Nani for walks.

How to Say Hello in Kansas

Adam's informative nugget of the day:

In Hawaii, we say, "Aloha."

In Japan, we say, "Konichiwa."

In Kansas, we say, "Chanyo." That means "hello."

Fredericksburg

On Sunday (March 28) we headed to Fredericksburg with Gram and Bapa. We met up with the Flachmans once we got to Fredericksburg. On Monday, we had a delicious breakfast at the German bakery, then went to Wildseed Farms to see if the bluebonnets were out. Lottie was all ready to pose for pictures with Bapa.


Lottie, Adam, and Logan posed with some blue bonnets.

Adam and Lottie wanted to pose with Daddy by the beautiful flowering tree.

The wildflower fields were not quite ready. The poppies were starting to bloom, but the bluebonnet field was not even close. But who cares when you have paths and a Daddy to chase you?

We also walked around Fredericksburg's Main Street. And, as always, Adam and Logan had to pose with the candy cutout. I like Lottie peeking around the side. We also had to buy some fudge at that candy shop. Yum!

Weekend Fun

Fun times in Round Rock at the outlets. Adam and Lottie don't like shopping, but they love the motorized rides!

A day at the outlets can really tire a Daddy and doggie out.

Smell the Flowers

You always need to take a little time to stop and smell the flowers. Adam says that these tulips smell like honey!

Future Photographer

We googled "Adam Kiyoshi" today, and found out that there is in fact another Adam Kiyoshi in the US. He is a photographer and actor. Our Adam also loves taking pictures. Here are a few of his best shots from a few weeks ago. Pretty good for a three year old.

Bulbs

Chris and I planted a bunch of tulip and daffodil bulbs in February (late, I know). Even so, they did come up!

Whale

Adam has finally started drawing real things. Identifiable things, instead of his favorite train tracks or monsters. It's a whale!
