| We went out to Ruby Tuesdays for Lauren's birthday dinner last night. She loves this place. She loves to eat the pasta salad off of the salad bar and the croutons, it's so funny, she scarfs is down. |
 |
| Lauren wanted to wear her birthday hat that she got at school and on our way out she said "Mom, how does everyone know that it's my birthday?" Gee, I wonder how they knew??? |
 |
| Lauren's art work on display at the school |
 |
| Lauren's magic carpet |
 |
| Elise's artwork on display, this was a city. |
 |
| Elise's butterfly, she is such a great artist. I love to see all of the girls art projects because they really put a lot of work into it. |
 |
| My sweet girls. They are growing up way too fast for me. And they were angels in church today. They are never bad but to be able to sit through an hour service without coloring books or something to do was really nice. It made me proud! |
 |
| The girls had fun coloring Easter eggs today. The package we bought was full of glitter and sequence, they thought that was pretty cool. |
 |
| If you write on the egg with a white crayon before you dip it... your desing shows up. |
 |
| Lauren won this HUGE Easter basket. Both of the girls entered a coloring contest at our local grocery store Dahl's and Lauren's name was drawn. They also told us that we won a spiral ham as well for Easter dinner. So Lauren of course was super excited when she saw the basket and Elise was devastated that she didn't win. We tried to explain that it wasn't based on who had the best picture but it was just a drawing and Lauren got lucky. Lauren, being the sweet little sister that she is, shared with Elise (minus the chocolate). |
 |
| We spent a weekend at Joyce and Dicks while Eric went to the Big 10 basketball tournament a few weeks ago. Gavin and Austin were spending their spring break there too so the kids had a blast. The weather was great and the kids were worn out!! As it should be. |
 |
| Lauren and Sadie. Lauren LOVES dogs and she spent every minute she possibly could outside with Sadie... we need to get her a dog. |
 |
| Joyce and Dick brought Austin an alligator skin from their trip to Florida. He thought that was pretty cool. |
 |
| I love all of these photos with Grandma and Grandpa, especially the goofy ones. |
 |
| Charlie was bird watching |
 |
| This was so funny, the girls would lay on the ball and roll off, so then Charlie decided he would roll off of the girls and he would just laugh and laugh. |
 |
| Lauren got a Rapunzel doll from Grandma and Grandpa as an early birthday present. |
