Our First Slumber Party!

A few weeks ago the girls asked if Mia & Eisley could come over & spend the night. So.... without any hesitation we said why not! They had the time of their lives! They felt like such big girls. I honestly can't remember when my last "slumber party" was, but I do remember not really being a big fan of sleepovers. These girls reminded me why I usually passed on the sleepovers. The 3 big girls stayed up talking until 12 am talking & laughing about who know what (they are almost 5, what could they possibly have to talk about) while Eisley finally fell asleep around 11:30 pm. We are looking forward to many more slumber parties with these sweet cousins!

Happy Easter!

We had the most wonderful Easter this year! I'm not sure what made it so much different than past years, but it was! Maybe the fact that it was the first holiday in our new house or because we have really seen the "Resurrection" power of the Lord! We celebrated Easter with my family at my Mom & Dad's house (which we do every year) with my sister & her family, my brother & his wife (who is 39 weeks pregnant with their first baby girl), & our friend Kim. We weren't sure what this Easter was going to look like since my mom was in the middle of her 4th cycle of chemo & Leah was ready to pop at any minute, but God was so good to allow us to have a fantastic day. We are so honored to have family to celebrate the Resurrection with. God is sooooo good!

It was the sweetest thing ever! They sang a song about the books of the bible (New & Old Testament) & "Mighty To Save" which they had sign language for. I can remember the first time they sang in church a couple of years ago. It is unreal how quickly time goes by!! What a fabulous way to end Easter!!

Easter Eggs!!

The girls were more than excited to decorate their easter eggs this year. This is the first year we decorated eggs at our own house & to make it even more special it was our first easter in our new house! We had so much fun!! Enjoy the pictures!

An Early Easter & Birthday Party

On Saturday we went over to Johnathan's Grandparent's house to celebrate Easter & Dustin's Birthday. We had the most delicious brisket for lunch & strawberry cake that was out of this world!! It is always so much fun to get together with everyone! Enjoy the pictures!
