Easter Day

Peter Cottontail visited our house this year.The faces say it all :)

The girls in their Easter dresses.
The Easter Bunny also came to Grandma and Grandpa's.





We sure love "Grampa!"



The kids look forward to Grandma and Grandpa's annual Easter egg hunt.



The kiddos couldn't get enough. They kept hollering, "Eggs! Eggs! Eggs!"
The smiles on their faces may be caused by all the candy they are looking forward to eating; but when I look at them, I'm reminded of the joy I feel at this time of year and of the gratitude I have for our Savior. Wishing you a very Happy Easter!

Coloring Eggs

The girls colored some masterpiece eggs this year over at Bubba's.



Our hands were just about as colorful as the eggs.

And what were the boys doing during all this? Setting up a new swing set in Bubba's backyard. The girls were so excited! Swinging and sliding is always fun, even in the dark!

A Hairy Adventure

The other day, I had one of those moments when I realized things were just a little too quiet. Upon investigation, I discovered that Big Sis had gotten a hold of the kid scissors and taken them into her room. She must have been channeling an 80s punk rocker, because she had cut her pants apart....
....And she had also cut her hair. I had to bite my lip to keep from crying as she handed me clump after clump of her long, beautiful hair.
Although the mullet was very nice, we decided it had to go.
Big Sis is now sporting a short bob that she proudly says looks "just like Dora!"
She couldn't be happier with her new 'do. It turned out very cute in the end, but we will be keeping the scissors under lock and key from now on :)

Let's Go Fly A Kite






The girls are growing up
