Easter, Fashion and Duct Tape




Making ressurection rolls the night before Easter. Dough wrapped around a marshmallow with butter and brown sugar!
Bake 'em, open them up and the marshmallow has disappeared just like Jesus when he rose from the grave.


One of Anna's loves... marshmallows




 We have entered the world of legos. Small pieces here, there and everywhere. I have added another element to my Mommy resume as the lego finder and fixer.

Clara was thrilled with the new "hip" shirt she picked out herself. Jon's comment.. "Is that a peacoke pattern on her 70's shirt?"
Duct tape boats that the kids created after watching the Myth Busters episode of "Duct Tape Survival" with Daddy where Jamie and Adam had to make a boat of Duct tape to get off a desserted island. I was so proud of myselt because I came up with the original design for the boat...stretching my Mommy brain.

Breakfast, Ballerinas and Preachers

Owen's breakfast of champions.. peanut butter toast, sausage and ceasar salad! He's the only kid I know that asks for salad and cooked carrots for breakfast.

All dressed up for "Grown Up" night at Awana

This is how we do home improvement projects at our house. Everyone wants to be part of the action while Daddy puts up a new shelf for Clara's books.

Anna's first real haircut at Bella and Max in Country Village. She loved watching Elmo on t.v. and playing with the dollies in the basket.

Look at my pretty braid

Rompin' in my blue rain boots

Anna's new job around the house.. sorting silverware

Checking out how I look as a pretty ballerina in my tutu


Owen  the streaker underneath that blanket 

One day Owen decided he was going to lead chapel. He grabbed an old baby toy to use as a microphone and got up on top of the cushions he stacked up. Then he said, "Here is the wine and the bread. It's real wine. The wine is Jesus' blood and the bread is His heart. Your children can stay in here if they have snot. We have tissues in the chapel." So that just about covers it. Communion and a children's announcement.
