and
Here are a few Easter pics. It snowed on Easter too.
The kids enjoyed decorating this bunny house- thank you, G'ma.

I have a sweet Easter story. Usually D is more interested in justice than in mercy for his sister (as in "mommy, do you want ME to put her in time out?"). But the other night, she wouldn't stay in bed & I told her if she got out again, I would put her stuffed puppy in the top of my closet. (Great discipline tip from my sister-in-law... take away toys when ignoring rules & have to "earn" them back by doing something extra). Anyway, D is still awake in bed when I make this threat & responds "Don't worry, if you lose your puppy, I'll do something nice for Mama & get it back for you."
What a sweet illustration of what the Savior did! No matter what the proverbial "puppy" represents for us, we have an older brother who loves us and has given us hope to have what we truly want returned to us. What a joyful event to celebrate.

D is soo cute. What nice big brother! They all are adorable.
We'd love to be your neighbors. We miss you lots. But we're not jealous of the snow.
If my memory serves me correctly, your birthday is the same day as mine. If so, Happy Birthday! If not, ignore me for being a loon!
Happy Birthday! Hope you had a fun and relaxing day. I can't believe all the snow you are having. We had a pool party at our house last night and I think I got sunburned playing tennis today. Are you jealous?!? NEway, we love looking at your blog. C-ya in a couple weeks.
Look at H's hair. She is getting so big.
