Crazy Hats

Tonight was Crazy Hat Night at our Awana Club.

Thomas Edison used his electrical ingenuity to make his hat.

Pocahontas worked very hard to do all the paper mache on her hat.

Davy Crockett and Leif Erickson had more traditional "crazy" hats.

Christ the Lord is Risen today! Alleluia!

We had a wonderful Easter Sunday. We started the day with our family traditional Easter egg hunt. Then we headed off to church. We drove out of town to our friends' church to celebrate the baptism of their newest baby. He is such a sweet blessing.

After church, we headed off to Dh's aunt's house for her annual Easter potluck dinner. It was a good time with cousins and friends. The children had a fun time playing with bendaroos after eating their fill.

Easter Egg Fun

We had a great time dyeing eggs. Thomas Edison came up with a new technique and the eggs looked great.

Leif Erickson did not remember last Easter, so this was a whole new activity for him.

He loved it!

The trick: Loosely wrap masking tape around the egg before dying.

Tie-dyed eggs are the results.

Davy Crockett Turns 7

Today was Davy Crockett's 7th birthday. It is hard to belive that he is 7 years old. He had a fun morning playing with his new Lego kits.

It was a beautiful spring day and the first day of Soccer for Fun. Davy Crockett enjoyed his turn as goalie.

Welcome to My Blog!

I have been contemplating starting a blog for a long time. Today I am beginning a blog about our family's adventures and ordinary days. I am hoping it will be a good way to keep our memoirs and allow our friends and family to keep up with the happenings of our life.
