A Few Things

Why are kids in dentist chairs so cute? We switched to a new pediatric dentist, and I'm so glad we did. I loved this place!

Awards night at Awana! We are so proud of these two for all of their hard work memorizing verses and finishing their books! Carsten finished his first year of Cubbies and Tyler finished his first year of Sparks!

Carsten's class singing the Cubbie's song and saying their Key Verse from the year.

Carsten and his teachers! :-)

Tyler and his class up for their awards.

I had to buy 400 candles for MOPS at Ikea. It wasn't exactly fun and exciting for the kids. But they were great sports and we stopped next door at the Mall of America afterwards.

Carsten earned a trip to Chuck E Cheese so we had a fun family day there.

Chuck E Cheese threw tickets up in the air over our heads. Tyler loved collecting them all. :-)

They loved this because it was like the Pup Pup Boogie in Paw Patrol!

What Is It About Baskets?

These are just a few of the random baskets I have found my kids in. And these are all just from the month of April!

I can only imagine the fun they're going to have with moving boxes in the next month. :-)

Easter 2017

It's no secret that I love celebrating holidays with my family. But I especially love the meaning of Easter and watching our kids learn about Christ's deep love for them. And we love having fun with it too.

Our weekend was very full, but also pretty laid back and we had so much fun.

My little mini baker helped me make some Easter cupcakes.

Of course they got to add their own sprinkles.

I think she liked it.

On Saturday we went to an Easter egg hunt at some friends' house. They did an amazing job with it. There were literally thousands of eggs hidden, prizes and treats. It was such a fun day.

They found just a few. :-)

On Sunday after church we decorated eggs!

These two little actors made their own costumes and acted out the Easter story.

And then we did a little scavenger hunt for Easter baskets!

There was lots of excitement!

And we tried. Really hard. To get a good picture of these monkeys in their Easter clothes.
