happenings

A few things we have been up to these days.

Abby finished her spring soccer season. She loved to play goalie and defense and was getting really good. At the beginning she had a hard time because she was the youngest and the smallest on her team and would get pushed around a lot and had a hard time playing with girls twice her size, but by the end of the season she was getting braver and found out that she is a GREAT defense player and wouldn't let anything get past her. She got a trophy (that jonas already destroyed and daddy has to fix...emma would say "ah, little brothers").



We had a simple, but great Easter. The kids woke up to discover their baskets. Once everyone had eaten we colored some eggs. It was so fun to watch Jonas get so excited and say "WHOA" every time an egg was taken out of the coloring. He only had one egg, but just colored it over and over and didn't care. Sorry about Emma being in her underwear she will thank me when she is older for posting it:)





then we had an egg hunt in our back yard.



We also talked about why we really celebrate Easter. then the girls watched conference with us trying to keep track of how many times they said Jesus. Emma didn't last very long, but Abby actually almost made it through the first session. Which was a first for us and it was wonderful to be able to watch it together.

Overall it was a perfect day and so nice to spend together as family without having to worry about anything, but each other.
