Easter and other fun times

April 11th, this girl kept begging me to cut her hair like mine. So I finally did. I LOVE her curly loose ringlets. They are my absolute favorite, so it was hard for me to cut them off...but I think she still has some curl remaining. What a Beauty and a personality to match!


She wanted to surprise her daddy with her haircut and put a bag over her hair before he could see her.



Preschool arts and crafts













We spent Easter at Arimo. We love to go to the small community Easter Egg hunt where each kids is allowed to find a specific amount of eggs. It's so fun for the kids to find candy and possibly a paper with a prize!















We were able to go visit Uncle Kevin working the fields with the tractor and disc/harrow. It was their first time in a tractor. They had a ball!!







Coloring Easter Eggs with cousins at Grandma's house











These are one of the things I made for Easter Dinner


Hunting for our Easter baskets that the Easter Bunny hid...sneaky!

Firestation Day with Preschool

I was able to go with the kids to their preschool field trip to the Firestation in Nampa. And I will be honest! I was thinking it might be boring, but they blew me away! The men were so interactive and made it very interesting. Addie really has blossomed and grown out of her shell. She participated and didn't hold back at all. It was fun to watch her get in there and hold the fire hose. So fun!!

Now JoJo, it must be a stage....because he was the one that held back and was reserved this time. But that's ok. He will figure things out and be involved again soon. He would only go up in the fire truck if I helped him up and went through with him. But I was just fine with that! It was very interesting. I also went up the "ladder" that went up 100 ft. with their Teacher Miss Marianne and another girl. It was a blast! I will be honest. In the past I always held back and missed out because I was so concerned about my weight and how much room I took up. I still have a ways to go, but loosing this weight had really helped me to do the things that I have always wanted to do. It is very liberating!






















































Addie says that she wants to be a fireman when she grows up! And JoJo wants to be a police officer.
