Easter and Spring break

This past week I put a lot mile in on the car.

Here we Friday the 10th, the day the trip started.

We went to Oakdale Redo parade to see my niece doing a dance

Hughson for My Older Brothers Birthday and Then Modesto Easter.

Then back to My house with my Dad(who I have not seen for 10 years),his dog Molly and my 7yr old niece Alyssa. Plus we spent one very cold windy day in Santa Cruz.

Then back to Modesto for the night and off to Yosmite for a fun filled day with the family!

Dakota 1st snap

She woke up Tue morning (4/7) so excited! "saying look mom loookkk! I can snap!" Great job Dakota, it is really cool learn how to do something you have been wanting to do your years.. I could baerly hear anything but to her it was the loudest snap she had ever heared!

Febuary...where did it go?

I can not believe that it is already March!

We had a very Busy and Fun February. the month stated with the girls both being very sick for about ten day. Dakota had the flu and bad ear infection inner outer just a mess... then Kenzie had croup and some asthma.

After that all the fun started...

Dakota's friend Quinn came over and stayed for a few days for Kota 5th birthday... man did I just say that. Also, her friend Alina came over nail painting lip balm making and a sleep over... she had so much fun.

After dropping the girls off from the sleep over, we went to the airport to pick up Grandma Apple and Grandpa Gorden! They stayed here for about a week. they spoiled us and the girls with gifts, a trip to Monetary Bay Aquarium and help us fix up a lot of stuff around the house.

Happy Valentine day from the Bakke Girls!!

Kindergarten Registration

I just register Kota for Kindergarten... she is growing up. Funny story...During the registration while I was filling out paper work Dakota was coloring and talking with some kids. I over hear her say " NO! I am going to be my mom when I grow up", I am not sure what they were talking about. But boy-oh-boy these words almost made me cry. For now I mean the world to that little girl. I am so proud to be her Mother, she is such a sweet and loving little lady!
