Easter pics

Brian's pictures of our outdoor fun from last weekend...

The girls were outside for almost two days straight! And what could you possibly do outside for all that time?

Let's just say we had a lot of laundry to do while we were up at Grandma and Grandpa's :)
They had lots of fun "fishing" in the pond and making mud in the sandbox. It was a great weekend. I had the chance to sing in my dad's choir again this year, along with my mom and sister Kerrieann. In Mary's words, "Ho-zana! De-sus his a-wive!"

Corrie quotes

To Mary after she asked for a banana yet again-
"She's going to turn into a banana! She's getting a little curved."

"I love you as much as God loves you." (hugs me) "I hope I have a baby like you."

To the tune of O Christmas tree, O Christmas Tree-
"O jelly bean, O jelly bean... How tasty are your insides."

spring chickens and art appreciation




Friends kindly let us come spend some time with their baby chicks last week.  I was the one who got pooped on but the girls had a great time.  Corrie liked holding them and Mary tried to feed them straw.

In other news, the girls have been drawing lately.  Special thanks to dad for letting us use his super cool white paper from his 'isolated on white' set-up!  

"rocket ship!" by Corrie (complete with sick guys underneath in bed and... is that pizza to eat?!)
 
 "the cutest smiley guy" by Mary (she LOVES drawing smiley faces.  other favorites include poka-dots and moons!)
 "hand turkey" by Corrie (her papers from church usually have these drawn all over the back.)
 "sun" by Mary
 "upside-down, right-side up smiley guys" by Mary (so sweet!)
