GRADUATION- May 15th, 2010

Here it is- the moment we waited for, graduation! It was a great day! A great time. Jay was so excited! A sigh of relief and a jump for joy from all of us! We have hope for the future. A time for a celebration!

Spring Soccer

Abby had fun picking grass and giving it to grandma
The athletic supporters

We love spring soccer. In our family we have a saying " If you don't play, then be an athletic supporter"! So we support these 2 every Saturday in the spring and fall! Jenna loved having Coach Hassler as her coach for the past several years. We missed him in the fall.

The Zoo

We love the giraffes
Our Friends the Oneils

We love the Zoo! I feel so blessed to live so close to so many great things for my kids to do. We are always busy going somewhere and learning something!

Order of the Engineer

The Guys- These guys have studied and worked on projects together for years! What fun to see them almost at the end!
Josh and Jake - Jake and Jay worked A Lot together this last year. We joke that he is jay's school wife, because he saw jay more than I did!

Jay had a special ring ceremony. It inducted him into the order of engineer's. It was a great night. He received a special ring and they had a light reception afterward. Only a few more weeks of school left at this point!

Spring Adventures

This is Hinckley Ledges. We walked around the whole lake. It's so fun to be outside again!

Spring Break- Every year in the spring we visit Lake Farm Park to see the baby animals and look at the beautiful blossoms! Jenna has rode this horse sunshine since she was 2! We are loving that is was warm enough to wear short and t-shirts!

making Easter babies
Baskets from the Easter Bunny-The Easter Bunny brings baskets to our house on Saturday morning rather than on Sunday so we do not distract from the spirit on Easter morning. The kids don't care and then they can eat their treats while we make our Easter babies ( the bread) and color eggs.

April -2010

Well we did have a warm up this year! Easter was early and we were all afraid it would be snowy, but it was really warm! We had a great Easter egg hunt with family and friends. Then began spring break and a whole lot of fun! We went down to the rocky river nature center and the kids waded in the water. Samuel is happy if it's warm enough to have his shirt off. He does have shirts, he just doesn't want to wear them!

March 2010

March is always fun! It's the beginning of spring and everything begins to thaw! We start going on our favorite Sunday walks and are able to be outside again! It's also our anniversary and the big St. Patrick's day parade!
