Spring Break #2 ~ Parkville

We took a little bit of a second Spring Break to Parkville, Mo. It was freezing cold but a fun trip to the North!

Adam enjoyed his big yummy steak!

Our friend Leah turned 30 and we enjoyed celebrating with her!

Linda made this beautiful runner

My roommate Karilee and I went out to dinner with Adam and had a good time catching up!

The Renos have been faithful supporters of Adam's concerts - He played in KC and with Washburn University this Spring so lots of great music!

The White Sox came in town for the first time and we were of course there to support:-)

Another night on the town to listen this time to the KC symphony and afterward Adam got his birthday pie - Only 6 months late but it took a good bit of motivation for me to make it from scratch! He said it was worth waiting for! We are still waiting for some warm weather and hoping it comes our way soon!

March Madness

So not the basketball March Madness but plenty more snow and a trip to CA to see our beautiful new niece!! Below you can see the crazy bunch. The girls took to Adam right away and proceeding to climb and kiss on him every chance they got! No more shyness from the Smith clan! Caraline the newest addition was 3 weeks old so we were so glad to get to be there around the time of her birth. Dad was in town for a bit of the time we were there so that made us one big happy family:-)

And a crazy family:-)

Caraline really seems to be a great baby and she is well loved! Below is the 3 sisters and their spouses/soon to be spouses. Gail gets married this summer to Ben on the far left. Their wedding is the day before our one year anniversary so we are excited to spend our anniversary in the same place that Adam proposed!

The girls LOVED to watch Adam play super mario brothers and Olivia LOVED to attack him. She had us all in stitches and left Adam a slobbered on but very happy Uncle.

We had a shower for Gail and her friends in Davis and I got to see Mom for the first time that trip. Dad says we look like twins:)

This is the shower crew! I got to see my good friend Abigail from Kansas City with her two kids who now lives in Sacramento. Cousin Marcelle came up and Gma was able to come so lots of fun faces. I think Caraline really enjoyed her first real outing!

Adam and I got her the ridiculous bow she is sporting above. We loved it when we went shopping with Liz and just had to buy it. You can see below how much my mom likes being near to the new baby!

There were quite a few rainy days and Kathy Dean, a good friend of the family, let us come hang in her basement. The kids had plenty of toys and the big kids loved getting to play some pool.

Back and the homestead - Adam and Caraline - He is already a natural with the baby and computer!

We miss our neices and can't wait to see them again this summer - check out Lynn's blog at http://www.thecaliforniasmiths.blogspot.com/
