Summer fun... finally!!



Easter!

I know I am a little late with these pictures, but here they are=)
These pics were taken at the end of service, needless to say they had sat still long enough! The girls were thrilled to wear the beautiful dresses that Great Grandma Freeman gave them- thanks so much for thinking of us!!




We also had a great day with perfect weather (a little teaser, little did I know it would go back to cold rain for a few more months) to have an Easter egg hunt with the kids at Grandpa and Grammie's house. We spend the afternoon dyeing eggs, hiding them, hunting for them, riding the tandem bike and then eventually finding a stinky dyed egg in Paisley's pocket!


I am especially thankful that there is even a reason to celebrate Easter... and so grateful for family to share it with.

Tulip Festival time

A while back I went with the girls down to Woodburn to meet with mom and Elaine. We had a great time- celebrating mom's birthday and getting all of the kids together. The tulip festival was happening and we thought it might be fun!

Getting a group photo at the end of the trip proved to be challenging... but classic.
Jared was hamming it up- we asked all the kids to cry so that the youngest wouldn't be the only ones!






I love this picture- Justin is totally layin' a kiss on Grace!

Jud and Paisley didn't think sitting in a big wooden shoe was all that fun... So don't try this at home.
