Happy Easter!

The last couple weeks in our house have been pretty hectic - we have spent 2 weeks passing around the stomach flu, intermingled with way too many Easter egg hunts and candy! It has been fun though (the Easter stuff, not the stomach bug), I think we have finally convinced Luke that Easter is about Jesus - not chocolate bunnies - and here are some pictures.

The first egg hunt at church -

Easter crafts at home while we were homebound being sick :-(

Easter party at Luke's school

Luke's class, they are all so cute!

Easter fun with Grandma and Granddad!

Easter morning - this is what things were really like before church....

Then more Easter fun with Nana's family after church

The kids with all of Vic's cousins children

Fun Weekend

We are trying to take advantage of the last few days of not-yet-boiling weather because it is coming soon! We have spent a lot of time outside, at parks and playing in the water, all my kids' favorite things to do.

Playing with our friend Aaron at the splashpad.....

My kids quickly abandoned the water for snacks instead, this seems to happen a lot

Open House

Last Thursday, Luke's preschool had Open House, and the children all participated in singing songs in front of the parents and then showed us their rooms. We were so proud of Luke - he stood right in the middle of the 3 year olds and sang the songs, did his hand motions and smiled the whole time! If you knew Luke last year as a 2 year old, you would know why we were so proud of him....because this time last year, I could not imagine him following directions or standing still long enough to do this!! He has matured so much this year and is such a sweet and loving boy!

Luke showing us his book of crafts he has made through the year


Luke and his best school buddy Corbin, I am so glad they were in the same class again this year!

Last but not least, Luke's two AMAZING teachers. Luke has adored them and they have done a wonderful job teaching and loving my baby this year :-)
