Easter, etc.


We hope everyone had a lovely Easter. My tulips bloomed just in time to celebrate the resurrection of our Savior.


First things first. I made E's Easter dress this year. Yes, I am proud. But really it was simple and fun. I even used extra fabric to cover a headband to match.


Our morning started out at a brunch at church. Don't you love the look I'm getting from my daughter?


How handsome is my V?



The picture doesn't really do it justice, but I put flowers on the cross in front of the church and I was really pleased with how it turned out.


J and his buddy Wes.


V was ticked with the the bunny he got from Grandma Linda.




We colored eggs Friday night.


Saturday was pouring, and friends invited us to go bowling. Let it be known that i still suck at it. Only twice, when I threw the ball did I NOT get a gutter ball.

But the kids loved it.
V has taken up singing with our microphone. It cracks me up that he know what to do with it, because there are no batteries in it.
One sunny day we took him outside and he just wandered around "talking" the entire time with hand gestures. It must have been something important.

One not so sunny day we had hail. This was one of the bigger pieces that Den heroically ran out to get for us.
