 This spring we got 4 new chicks! The kids love them. We got 2 Rhode Island Reds and 2 Buff Orpingtons. Hopefully we can get them raised so we can have us some good eggs.

 We were very fortunate to have Mandy, Zayley, and Cedar come and visit us over spring break. The kids had fun playing and Mandy and I had fun hanging out too.

Fishing with Dad. We caught one!

Zayley and claire decorating Easter Eggs

 Claire drew this picture of a hummingbird. I thought it was pretty good for a first grader. So proud of her!

 Colten, Charles, and Lisa came to visit. We celebrated Colten's birthday while they were here. 

 Claire surprised me one day and said she wanted to cut her hair short.

 Claire told me one day "I look like one of those crazy high school boys. And this is my boy smile." I thought it was pretty funny and probably pretty accurate.

We made slime!

 This is Claire's Christmas ornament that broke. She loves it and wanted me to take a picture of it so she could always remember it.

 Kate decided to cut her hair short too. Don't I have pretty girls?

 First Kate told me that she wanted to grow her hair out long, but after seeing Claire get her hair cut she changed her mind.

Kate's bunny ears she made in preschool.

We made ooblek!

 The kids had fun playing in the mud in the garden, but they didn't have fun getting sprayed off with the cold hose water.

Fun day at the park with Sam, Kate, Claire, Adelaide Dahle, and Berlin Dahle

Sam cut his own hair

Sam was sad when we were all done decorating eggs. All good things must come to an end.

Sam dressed up like a girl. Poor Sam. A life with sisters.

Easter egg hunt 

 Sam did not want to take a nap. He cried and thrashed around in his crib for awhile. When I went to go check on him he had pulled his changing table pad into his crib and fell asleep under it.
