The Girls' Dresses

This year, I made these Easter dresses for my daughters. 

Easter

He is Risen!  Our family had a very nice Easter and we hope yours did, as well.  We started off the morning by checking out what treats were left in the girls' baskets.

We had breakfast, got dressed in our finest Easter attire and headed to church to celebrate our risen Savior!

After church, we had lunch at Minnie and Papa's.  Ya-Ya came up to eat with us.  We spent a lot of time outside in the gorgeous weather.

Egg Hunt!

Craig had to work this past Saturday, so Leah and I attended an Easter egg hunt at a local church.  Minnie, Papa, and Meredith were kind enough to keep Anna for the morning so Leah and I could have a mommy/Leah date.

We had a really great time.  Leah found plenty of eggs and each one had a special sweet treat in it.
Our firstborn is growing so quickly.  She surprises me each day with her depth of understanding and knowledge.  Leah is a smart little girl and such a blessing to us!

Easter Egg-stravaganza!

Tonight we helped Leah dye Easter eggs.  She did a really good job!

Anna sat patiently in her high chair.  I asked her for a big smile, and this is what I got...

The finished product...

While the cat's away (at preschool)....

Anna gets to eat her snack on her blanket and watch what she wants on TV!!

Before School

In the mornings before I take Leah to school, the girls play together.  This particular morning they were playing with a small bouncy ball.  Leah would throw it from one end of the living room to the other and both of them would take off running to see who could get it first.

One small problem...it kept rolling under the furniture.

Geraniums for Sale!

Leah's preschool is selling geraniums for their spring fundraiser.  They are $6 per plant and the color choices are red, pink, salmon, white, or fuchsia.  We need to have the order/money turned in by April 26th, so let me know if you'd like some!

P.S.  Leah is also selling $1 raffle tickets for school.  The grand prizes are $100 cash, $100 worth of gas (from Rentz Oil), and a $50 savings bond.  There are other smaller prizes being given away as well.  We need to have all raffle tickets sold by April 11th.  Thanks for your support!!

So sweet...

Anna and Leah hold hands a lot now.  Last night, they were walking around outside together checking things out.

Leah got in trouble for throwing rocks into Bailey's water bucket.  Craig sent her to sit in time out for a few minutes and I snapped this photo as she walked by me....priceless.
