April

Dying Easter eggs! Usually the kids do this at Grandma's so this might be a first to dye them at home.

Nanee and Papa came into town and the kids love hearing Papa's bedtime stories.


Nanee playing "Memory" with Brooke and David

I can't remember the last time I was with my dad on his birthday (probably 2005?) but it was fun to have him here and we had his favorite, strawberry shortcake.

Brooke's 9th birthday party.  Playing "Just Dance" on the Wii with Isabel, Paige, Sarya, Anna, and Paige.

We promoted!

Gabe loves to pack his lunch (random canned vegetables or crackers he pulls from the pantry) and be first in line for the bus stop.  Behind him is Julian, David, Brooke, Ellianna, and Natalie.
