Visit to the dentist

 

The girls had another great trip to the dentist.   Both the dentist and her assistant were so impressed with how cooperative the girls were.  

Best part was hearing they are still in the no cavity club.  Good job girls. 

Having fun at Grandma’s house

 

The girls love to be at Grandma’s house and in the spring there is so much to do!

Like feeding the deer corn…..

 

Or taking photos by her tulips…..

This evening we even got to see the Momma deer in the woods.  We think that she has since had her babies and are anxious to see them soon.  

Swimming Lessons

 

The girls have had a blast on Monday evenings at swimming.   Emma is in a class while Norah likes to play around in the shallow area while her sister is in class. 

It has been fun to watch Emma learn to swim and she has even achieved going all the way underwater!  Something she was very apprehensive about for weeks.   

Way to go Emma! 

Springtime!

 

With this being a chilly spring Emma was getting very anxious to plant flowers.    For weeks she would ask and I had to tell her it was still too chilly outside for the flowers.  Finally we decided it would be alright to get the marigolds that Emma had asked for planted.

Emma has done a great job taking care of her flowers this year.  

Picture for Daddy

 

This is for Daddy all the way in China……

 

Love,

Emma

Easter Sunday

 

There is a song by Casting Crowns that I love this year and I feel that it sums up Easter very well.

Living, He loved me
Dying, He saved me
Buried, He carried my sins far away
Rising, He justified freely forever
One day He’s coming
Oh glorious day, oh glorious day

We are really trying to get the girls to understand the true meaning of the day and it was so sweet to hear Emma explain to me this year that her drawing from Sunday showed an empty tomb and that Jesus is alive and he lives in your heart!  Amen Emma. 

After church we had a busy day with family and celebrated Papi’s 60th birthday. 

Easter Baskets

 

I am the first to admit that I can go a little overboard with the girls baskets but I just love how they turn out…..
