Easter

During the weeks before Easter, husband decided to do a "little" remodel on the kitchen cooktop and island... This was supposed to be a weekend project, but ended up taking a couple of weekends. Anyway, the G6 came over the day before Easter for the Daddies to try to finish the job, and the kids and Mommies to hang out.Here are the Daddies working hard installing the cooktop and fan.

Thank you so much G6!!! Because we had no cooktop, the G6 brought some hard boiled eggs for the kids to decorate.
They turned out really cute!
But my girls decided not to use any tools and just use their hands to hold the eggs in the dye.

Their hands were stained for days!
The Easter Bunny came and hid eggs all over the house. (Each of the girls has their own color of eggs to find).
Then we headed over to the L4's house for a yummy Easter brunch. We always have the kids decorate a cake or cookies after. This year they did cookies.

Thanks L4 for working so hard on those adorable cookies for the kids to decorate!

Our "baby" is 4!

Happy Birthday, big girl!! (sniff, sniff)

It's hard to believe that my youngest child is 4 yrs old! But I can not escape reality and I have to accept it (sigh).
It was no surprise that she requested one of Auntie Robin's famous barbie cakes! My oldest and star cake decorator, decorated it again with baby sisters color choices (purple, blue, & green). I know what your thinking....."what...no pink?".

Here she is making a wish and blowin' out her candles.

I had to throw in a picture of the cake swiper. She started with one piece, then swiped her Moms, then Dad's, then started eating off of her neighbors plate!

All the kiddos getting ready to open presents. What's so funny cousin Luc??

Miss Pay got buckets of Lego's for her bday. Big sis and friends couldn't wait to start building...

Neither could Daddy! He of course had to get involved. He could hardly wait to build "the biggest house ever" according to the kids! (That's his hand in the pic)
Here is the inside.

Since then the Lego's have stayed out on the coffee table and been played with everyday.

Primary Concert

The theme.Her class represented Africa & Hawaii (her music teacher sewed the costume).

They did a traditional African dance. (Yes she really is that much smaller than most of her classmates!) With cousin Luc and another friend from class.

With BFF. (Grandma gave her flowers!)

Cousin Luc as one of the Narrator's.

This was one of the best "concerts" I've seen done by the kiddos.

The music teacher did a really good job!
