Ellie had a very special day last Saturday. She took a special step as a member of the Catholic Church and now receives Communion. She even carried the gifts up to the front of the church with the help of her mom and Godmother. Ellie is excited about being able to take Communion each week and being more involved in her church. She has signed her family up to bring the gifts to the front of the church at regular mass sometimes too. We are so proud of our little girl- even if this is another reminder our baby girl is growing up!

Easter Continued
We had a wonder Easter with some of my dad's side of the family this year. The kids and I posed with Grandma- sorry Grandpa you were watching TV and I had to catch Sam while he would smile. Sam and Ellie were so excited to see the Easter Bunny when we stopped for gas. Sam said, I think he came to our house in the dark and hopped here in the morning. I'm sure he is right. We fit a family photo in before a delicious dinner. Sam entertained all, Ellie had fun with "Jelly Belly" beans, and it simply was a lovely day!
Easter Eggs and Easter Morning
Easter Egg Coloring- Writing with crayon and putting on egg wraps was the excitement this year.
Easter Morning-
The bunny hid baskets and left a note about an egg hung too!

It was so fun to have last Thursday and Friday off from school. Thursday was the first hot day of spring. We had fun doing many things outside including dad grilling us supper and eating on the porch.
