Chloe loved the tire swing at Grandpa & Grandma's house. All the kids did! The kiddos had fun with their cousins, Uncle Gordon, Aunt Di, Grandpa Tom, Grandma Kris & Great Grandma Marge. Eli really liked the egg hunt & so did Chloe. Chloe & Hope decorated some carrot cup cakes with green coconut & jelly bellies!:) Enjoy this slide show!
Our church hosted a community easter celebration. There was food, crafts, bounce houses, face painting, balloon animals, egg hunts, etc. We had a great time! Tomorrow we will be off to Grandpa Tom & Grandma Kris's house after church for more family fun. We are so blessed to celebrate the resurrection of Jesus Christ with most of our family & friends (& we miss you & are thinking & praying for those we are not with this year). And, we are happy to shout, "HE HAS RISEN, INDEED!"
We have been enjoying this spring-like weather (see the photos I posted below of stuff we have been doing over the last couple of weeks). I signed the kids & I up for a yoga class & it started last week. It is "angel bear" yoga (designed especially for little ones). Eli is a bit too young to get a lot out of it so he will be staying home with daddy while Chloe & I attend the class & have mommy/daughter time. It was fun fun & we look forward to next week! A quick update on Nate: He is out on patrol!! He has been out since mid-January & has completed all training & has been enjoying this new assignment (& boy does he come home with some wild stories!!) He works swings, Sat.-Tues, 3pm-1am. We like this sched because Nate is home in the mornings, can still attend Church with us on Sunday mornings & lead worship for Children's Church, & has Wed off (a big Church nite), Thurs off (bible study nite at our home) & Friday's he is off & we have turned them into our family day. So, thanks for all your thoughts & prayers for him & our family & please keep 'em comin'!! Eliot at the duck pond...ya gotta love the drool & chapped, runny nose!! (he has a cold & is teething in this photo...poor mister!!) Daddy fishing...the fishin' is good right now! Mommy & Chloe at the snow (we stopped to play in the snow on our trip to Reno). Here we are at Cabela's in Reno
