Is it spring yet?


Here are the kids with their cousins celebrating Great Grandma's Birthday last weekend, the kids are happy to have her back in town (she spent the winter downstate Michigan).

Last weekend Walter was driving a snowmobile at his friend Jack's house, this weekend is Easter! Only in the Copper Country!





Yesterday the kids had their gang of friends over to decorate eggs and have an egg hunt. Walter was so excited that he only slept 6 hours the night before. The kids had a great time.

Some celebrations!

Sorry I haven't updated in awhile. We've been busy as usual. Anyway here are some of the things we have been up to.

Walter's school has a behavior reward program that allows them to earn super stars and with their super stars they buy things, anyway, he has been quite thoughtful when he spends his super stars because he has been buying things for us as well. So a couple of weeks ago he came home with a bunny Easter cookie cutter for me. So of course we had to make and decorate bunny cookies. Rose E really got into the spirit of it as you can see. She decorated for about an hour! Oh and speaking of bunnies, a couple of weeks ago we where talking about real bunnies and I said one year when I was a little girl I got a real bunny in my Easter basket, Walter replied back with "are you sure there where no screws or batteries underneath it!" Guess who just had a Birthday? Happy Birthday Ariel.
Last weekend we went to Green Bay to celebrate. The kids had a blast.
And the weekend before we went to Wisconsin also to celebrate baby Thea's baptism. I have better pictures of her in her beautiful gown but for some reason our computer has been playing hide-n-seek with our loaded pictures lately and I can't find them on our computer.

These pictures where taken a little while back dressed in Sunday best. Anyway, I had to the post them because Walter made me laugh on that day because he said "why are we dressed like old people?'
I think we are finally moving away from all of that winter gear! The kids enjoyed some sunshine this weekend and it is nice to see that most of our snow is almost gone! Phew it was beginning to feel like it would never come!
