Oh, how we love to get our imagination going! These girls had a BLAST making a trap for a leprechaun. They painted it and put a rainbow and gold inside, and then tried to trick him with the grassy stuff. Then they set it out on the porch to catch him on March 17th. Needless to say, he got the gold and got away! Maybe next year!
Millie's leprechaun from school
Paul's Marathon
Paul, Brock and Mark all ran the marathon in Moab. They enjoyed training for it, and had a great time together. We cheered them on...from home. Here's Grace's picture of them winning, but also reminding them that there are other types of races.
Hollywood Connections
Our Pass of All Passes got a lot better when it added Hollywood Connections! Who needs Lagoon or Disneyland when you can go there? (Well, um...that's what we told our kids anyway)
Easter
Coloring Easter eggs gets more fun each year! We found a few different occasions to have an easter egg hunt. You can't have too many of those.
Here are some notes to the Easter Bunny:

Early Planting
There's nothing like it when the weather starts to warm up and we can see our grass and garden again. And there's nothing quite like a fresh, clean bed of dirt to begin anew. Paul always loves this day! This is the part of gardening we are really good at! The rest, not so much this year!
We found a great activity for Millie when she is off-track. She begged for one of these and has just loved making it. She is a writer, and I've loved seeing her create this book.
Joyschool
Claire's joyschool group was so much fun! We had Serah, Crew, Jane, Claire, and Henry. I loved teaching them!
Playdates
These little friends of ours get us through the winter! We were so glad to have Lauren join our preschool, and it's always fun when Grace can have Kylie over. And of course, we always love when Jane makes her way over to our house!
A Sick Sunday
Grace has to stay home from church one Sunday, but she was sure to hold her very own primary. She just loves doing this! Can you tell?
Mommy's Wedding Dress
Every once in a while, the girls remember about my beautiful wedding dress hanging in the closet, and they beg to see me in it! Of course, they tell me how beautiful I am in it, and we surprise Daddy. I'm just glad I still fit in it! I had lost some of my baby weight while doing the Candida diet, so it was actually fun to try it on!
Ivie's New Teeth
She is almost 1 year old! And she is crawling all over the place. This little one is loved and adored by so many!
