SPRING AND SUNSHINE

Well we just had the most georgeous weekend. Temps in the 80's and sunshine. It was perfect. We got some yard work done, I sat in the sun and read. The kids were at there grandma's so things were nice and quite on Saturday. I'm getting a good start on my tan. Today is just as beautiful so I am going to take the kids to the park. Eliza is on a school field trip to the zoo today. What a perfect day she got. I just hope it lasts. Weather in Ohio is very tricky. It looks to be a good week, even with rain, but that doesn't mean that next week we don't drop down to freezing again. So I'm enjoying what we have and praying that it sticks around.
Can't believe we are coming to the end of the school year already. What a quick year it has been. My kids last day of school is June 10th. They have a few make up days due to bad weather. I am taking a trip to Utah for a long weekend on June 4th thru the 8th and I am looking forward to that. I miss my family and I miss Utah! Hope everyone is enjoying their spring.

HAPPY EASTER

We hope everyone had a happy Easter today. We had a very nice day here and a good dinner. Sacrament meeting was also nice. I enjoy having the meeting centered around the Savior. Scriptures were read and songs were song, it was full of the spirit. I am thankful for the knowledge of the resurrection. As with tradition in my family the girls had new dresses and Isaac new clothes as well. In the past Grammy Marcia had always sent them their clothes so going out and buying them this year just gave us one more reason to miss her. Although I think the girls enjoyed picking their dresses. But I know I have a great appreciation for all that mom did for me and the kids. Anyway I just wanted to post some pictures of the kids looking their Easter best! Enjoy.
PS As of today Eviee is officially walking!

Making the Big Time

So last month David got a call from the school board saying that they were putting up a billboard for the month of April promoting the school district and out of all the pictures they had been through the one they wanted to use was one of Eliza with a couple of her friends at a basketball game they went to as a field trip. Did they have our permission to put her on the billboard. Heck yeah I said, how fun will that be. So today I finally learned where the billboard is located and went and had a look. Of course I took pictures to share with all if you. My baby up in lights!! (okay so there's no lights but still this is a big deal) :)




Also a cute thing happened yesterday morning, the kids were home from school for Good Friday and the start of spring break. I was getting out of the shower and Elana told me that Eviee had soaked through her diaper so she had to change her! Well I chuckled to myself because Elana has never changed a diaper before. Then she told me she didn't find any of Eviee's diapers so she had to use Isaac's. As I came out of the bathroom and saw Eviee crawling towards me, with most of her backside showing. But I think that Elana did a great first time job and here is Eviee to prove it!
