Earthly Father, Heavenly Father

Ok this is the video I tried to post yesterday, but I guess another one was posted instead.

Grateful

I love this video. It makes me feel so grateful to have such a great husband and father to our children. And it reminds me of my Heavenly Father and how He feels about me.

Easter

We had a very fun Easter, and the weather has been fabulous! I forgot to take pictures of the dinner at Drew's parents house. But it was a blast. I love how much fun Melanie has with her cousins.

We do a lot of crafts in this house. So it's fun to have a theme for the week. This week we also watched a lot of animated movies about the resurrection. But one time I was watching a non animated movie, and one that Mel probably shouldn't see. It was a little too graphic for a two year old, but she sat down with me to watch it, and while Jesus was being beaten she said, "oh no Jesus, are you ok?" and then once he was resurrected she said, "oh phew Jesus you are all better." It was so cute, I had to remember to write it down.

We had an Easter egg hunt at the church. Here's Melanie and her best friend Isabelle.

Drew and I took turns helping Melanie dye some eggs. She drew on them and put on stickers once they were done.

Dad teaching Melanie the art of dying Easter eggs.

The Easter bunny came!

Easter egg hunt in the house

This girl would not smile for a picture when I wanted her to. Believe it or not she loved her new Easter dress.

Impossible to get both of them to sit still, look, and smile at the same time.

We went down to Castle Rock to have brunch with my family. And she got to have yet another hunt.

She loves her cousin Kyla! I didn't get a picture with Brayden, but they all play really well together.

I love tulips!
