Communication & Media Week

I realize this blog is generally all Evelyn and Sydney, all the time, but I decided to post a few photos from Communication & Media Week. I co-advise our department's student group (Communication & Media Society) and we just finished sponsoring 4 events this past week. On Tuesday night my friend from high school came to screen his most recent documentary "The China Question" which has been airing on CNBC this past year.

Me, Brook and Gregg Bray (the other co-advisor of the student group)

Gardening Glory

Spring has sprung at the blue house. The girls are getting excited about their impending May birthdays. Evelyn is learning new tricks (like peeing on the toilet!) and Sydney continues to dazzle us with new expressions. We told her we were giving Sadie a bath because she (Sadie) was a dirt ball. After the bath Sydney proclaimed, now she's a clean ball! Here are some photos of some of the gardening efforts.

Easter

We enjoyed a visit from Team Walsh for Easter weekend.

The Walsh girls (There was consensus among the parents that it was simultaneously amusing and horrifying to see the girls driving each other around...a glimpse of the future no one is in a hurry to reach)

Easter Morning with our little bunny

 

 Easter Baskets!

Easter Egg Hunt at Church - Sydney and Evelyn divided and conquered and then exchanged eggs to ensure they had an array of colors!

The hunting continued in our backyard. Joshua asked the girls if they could see the last egg...can you see it?

A final snuggle before the Walshes departed
