Sunshine

A.J.'s favorite pasttime.

This is for one of the sisters in our ward that I visit teach. (In our church we are assigned two or three or sometimes 4 women to visit and offer support, comfort, and friendship.  It is our way of caring for and meeting needs of church members.  I believe it is an inspired program and I have been greatly blessed by sisters and friends that have visited me over the years.)    I am taking my visiting teachees a Sunshine basket.  With all the rainy cloudy days that we have I hope that it brightens her day.

Spring time happenings

Spring is in the air. This spring we have celebrated by getting a bunk bed for Benjamin's room. He loves it! and the kids certainly enjoy playing around on the top bunk. Mom and Dad love the fact that now Ben will go to bed on his own. The final perk......if needed there is another bed in the house.


Look at this face. He is quite a cutie and seems to either have a smile on his face or can be found shaking his head no. Fortunately the smile is much more prevalent. Here he appears in my mothers moon boots.


The other spring purchase was this dome climber. I decided that the kids climbing on the furniture was making me crazy so, for Easter the Bunny brought this contraption. The kids play on it for hours. It was well worth the wait and the best news is that the furniture halflife just increased!







We have discovered peanut butter and fluff sandwiches. Mom thinks they sound terrible, but the kids love them. The fluff mustache cracks us up.
Lastly we wanted to post some of the Easter Egg hunt pictures. Our neighbor spoiled the children and bought them sand pails that she placed in the yard. Of course they were filled with fun things like a matching plate, bowl, silverware set, plenty of candy, and sandbox stuff. We are centainly lucky to have great neighbors that are so good to the kids.
