The Clarke Family Spot: April 2009

Monday, April 13, 2009

We started another family tradition this year. We are going to have a Rebirth Day Party for our girls on Easter to help them to understand the real meaning of why we all celebrate Easter. We blew up 75 balloons with helium and let them go in the kids room while they were sleeping and when they woke up they we were so excited. Lelia kept saying, "Oooo, Oooo" it was so much fun to watch them both enjoy the balloons. For her reaction check out the video above :)

The Cherry Blossom Festival

We went to DC for the 97th (I think) annual Cherry Blossom Festival with our neighbors, the Harms'. It was a mad house of people who were there for the festival, a marathon and a baseball game. It was a beautiful day but very windy. We ended the day early to Lelia throwing up on the ground in the midst of the crowd :) Overall it was a great day.

Lelia's First Haircut

Lelia got her first haircut this past week. It was a "salon" completely devoted to kids cuts. They cut thier hair in this little car with a steering wheel, give them animal crackers and play movies right in front of them. I couldn't believe how easy it was! I think it was just as much fun for me as it was for her :)
