Elyse's Spring Production

On Monday night, Elyse had her preschool's spring production.  She did an amazing job and appears to have so much fun on stage.  There were 65 kids singing for about 15 minutes.  Following the production was an ice cream sandwich social.  I think Elyse summed up the night best when we were in the car, "That was one fabulous night!"

Without further ado, Elyse singing her favorite song:

Even Nana came up to see the star perform.  Thanks, mom!

8 Years


Today marks Nate and my eight year wedding anniversary.   God's journey for us has not always gone the way we would have planned; but I would not have had it any other way. That's because I believe that's the reason our marriage is as strong and everlasting as it is today. I feel so blessed to have Nate as my husband, father to our three beautiful children, provider, spiritual leader and best friend.

Nate, I love you so much and everyday grow to love you more and more. Thank you for all you do for the kids and I. I look forward to celebrating many more blessed years with you. Happy Anniversary, love!!!

CraAZy Hair Night

Tonight at Awana was crazy hair night.  Elyse's wasn't really crazy at all but that's what happens when mom forgets until the last three minutes before leaving and Elyse wants to wear every new hair band she has.  Side note, each pony was sticking straight up, but she was leaning against the wall for the picture.  Hope to do much better next year :)

$10 Well Spent

The summer before Elyse turned one, we can across this slide for $10 on Craig's List.  Without a doubt it is one of the best things we have bought for our kids.

Whole Over Slices

Kallen often grabs my apple during lunch and decides that he would rather have the entire apple over a slice. Silly boy!

Celebrating Easter

Our Easter weekend was simple but busy! 

Saturday: we enjoyed the beautiful weather and decorated Easter eggs.


 
Sunday: after a morning full of serving in different areas at church, we came home to do our Easter traditions.  We read the Easter story with Resurrection eggs, had an Easter egg hunt and opened Easter baskets.     


 
 

Hope you all had a fun, memorable and blessed Easter too!
