On Saturday, Ashlyn's soccer game was canceled due to projected thunderstorms, so we hit a park since she was anxious to show off her new-found courage and strength in conquering the monkey-bars. Her prowess was obviously inherited from Grandpa Solano.
We then went to my parents house to watch the BYU basketball game, and I went with my mom and Brock's mom to Claim Jumper for lunch, which we just had to wash down with their chocolate motherload cake.
Grandma captured this next picture of Lara who was very happy about her new St. Patty's day get-up. (We owe a debt of gratitude to Grandma Jo for keeping us prepared to celebrate the holidays in style.) Lara cracks us up. She thinks she is so grown up and expresses her opinion quite decidedly for one so young. At night, after we've put them to bed, if we have to open their door for any reason, she'll say, "Hey! Why are you doing that!? I'm not talking." Lately she'll also sing, "Wa-Wa-Wa WAWA War-ren" to the tune of Dora. Next time you see her, try to convince her she is not Lara and she'll put you straight.
I love this next picture too. I don't know who told a joke, but with his three crazy sisters running around, Warren has a lot to laugh about.
See what I mean. Here was a dress-up party with Grandma...no one will be pinching us this year.
On Saturday evening we reinacted Brock's b-day and ate Bday cake #2. A new favorite that I found on allrecipes.com called a Raspberry Walnut Torte. Brock deserved to celebrate a second time since we were all sick around his real birthday this year. As you can see, Claire just wanted to blow-out the candles. It was a wonderful, memorable week-end but the icing on the cake that made it perfect was BYU beating SDSU at basketball.
