Easter 2014

The kids loved getting their baskets in the morning:

The requisite pictures in Easter Sunday attire:

We spent a lovely morning at Church, and in the late afternoon we headed to our friends for Easter dinner. Andrew was excited to carry the chocolate eggs for our Easter egg hunt:

April: Coloring Easter Eggs

We spent an hour on Good Friday coloring Easter eggs. It is not my favorite holiday tradition, but luckily the kids are getting big enough to do it themselves.

Every year our town does an Easter egg hunt the week before Easter. The weather is usually mild, and the hunt is usually over in 2 minutes, but the bounce houses and petting zoo add to the fun. We always run into friends when we go, whether we plan it or not!

April: Preschool Open House

As the 2013-2014 school year was winding down, Andrew and I went to Maddie's preschool open house. We LOVE the Ark and its fabulous teachers. Maddie enjoyed showing us all she had learned. She definitely got the green light for kindergarten!

March 2014

Here are a bunch of random pictures from things we did in March.

Another edition of "what's in the box."

Andrew did great at the dentist!

Lovely park weather. My friend Eileen pushing all these cute girls.

Grandpoppy came to visit for exactly 6 hours before his meeting in Dallas. Of course the band got back together!

I tried to have a garden this year.

"Spring" Break!

For Spring Break in March, we went up to Chicago to visit Poppa, where we found Winter! Grandma and Grandpa came over from Michigan to see us too.

Despite traveling alone with 3 kids, electronics made it an easy flight!

We celebrated Poppa's birthday a couple of weeks early...

He was surprised!

On our last morning there, we woke up to snow! Luckily it ended early, so we had plenty of time to play and clear it before we had to fly out that night!
