Easter

Easter and Spring Break this year was simple and at home!  

 The Easter Bunny wanted the kids to get out and play ball….

 Here are the troops all ready for the Easter church service

 Oliver may have received some tools from my dad…that can actually do some work.  Oliver is more than happy to get outside- unfortunately he likes to dig up existing landscape :/

 Wes had a birthday and we celebrated at home with MiMi (they are all so calm in this picture which is only because they are putting chocolate cake in their mouths). Every moment before and after this involved all three kids hopping and shouting and laughing with excitement.  They LOVE birthday parties!

And just because its an oldie but a goodie…I had this picture framed because it makes me happy (Wes and I at 8 and 5 yrs old). LOVE LOVE LOVE

 During Spring break we went to a spring event at the local greenhouse…Proud of their petunias

 There was plenty of mud this spring too…On this particular day I drove home with Oliver (sans pants, or shoes).

 The boys waiting for Natalie to arrive after school at the bus stop

 Wes is such a good daddy

 And yes…the snow thawed so we HAD to visit the beach.  Run! Run!

 Stratton makes me smile every day.  He is such a people person and has enough words in an hour to fill someone's week :)  On this day, we had some yard work done.  Stratton walked right up to the landscaper and started asking questions…who, what, where, when, why, how…the works.  It was sweet to watch him carry on a conversation.  At one point the landscaper asked Strat, "This is some nice weather we're having, huh?"  Strat is a 5 going on 50 ;)
