Spring Break Fun & Easter...

The kids Spring Break was fairly uneventful until the end of the week. The enjoyed playing with the kiddos I watch M-Th but we were house bound b/c our vehicle cannot accommodate us all. Cathy had Friday off so Rob took the day off and we went to play. We went to an indoor water park with our good friends where it was warm and wet. We had TONS of fun!

Here are just a few photos of the kiddos!

Rob gives the green light to once again go wet and wild!

Christy and Carlee enjoy the splashing!

What must Alec be saying in the background???

Easter has been fun! Last night we dyed eggs and got ready for our Easter festivities the next day. The kids awoke this morning to their Easter buckets filled with toys and treats! Nothing like a solid chocolate bunny to start the day!

After a light breakfast we were off to brunch at Sam and Christy's. The food was awesome, the company also as wonderful, and the game about the reason for Easter perfect. The kids had a great time playing, eating, searching for eggs and then playing the game where they taught me (the pretend Easter Bunny) about the reason we celebrate Easter. The Easter Bunny was shocked to hear that it wasn't about eggs and chocolate bunnies, ha ha ha!

We also managed to get a family photo at Sam and Christy's before we all headed off to church. I am SOOOO glad we did this before church...an outfit was ruined by throw up while at church! BUMMER!!!

Aren't I cute? NO!

As many of you know we recently welcomed a little one to our home, at least for a time. We have struggled with not putting this wonderful angels pictures here for all to see. BUT...until this baby's fate is decided....we feel it necessary to protect this baby's identity. We adore this little one more than words can say and there is no doubt that this little one belongs with us. We can't wait to show you this glorious angel of ours....one day soon we hope!

Happy Easter to you all! We hope that you have a magnificent day and that you are surrounded by family and those you love. We pray you especially feel the love of our Savior Jesus Christ as we celebrate His resurrection.

He lives....He is risen!
