Jackson's Creativity

These are Jackson's robots.
We are under strict instructions to give him any empty bottles
so that he can transform them into bad-guy-fighting machines!

The other day, Jackson surprised me with this spectacular lunch he had created all by himself.

Tea Party

Flower Girls, our girls club at church, had a tea party at a real tea house. It was fabulous! The girls all got to pick out a hat, and full tea was served. Gram and I also received the privilege to join in. It was very "Girly Fun"! (If you know Sydney, she was in heaven.)

It Begins. . .

As I drove past our neighborhood today, I thought I saw some big machines. Sure enough, they have started digging our basement! It's exciting to know that this is really happening.

We're Moving!

This is just a quick update. My brother and sis-in-law, Adam and Becky, are buying our house April 30! We're moving out May 3. God has provided for us abundantly; we will be moving into Chris's grandma's house for five months until our house is completed. Yes, we are building a new house. It is about 1 1/2 miles from Goddard, so we will finally be closer to work and schools. It is scheduled to be done at the end of September; however, they haven't started yet, so we'll see!

I've been swamped with teaching and now packing, so this is all I have until I can get some pictures loaded. I'll update more soon!

Bowling!

To kick off spring break, we headed to the bowling alley.
The kids loved the shoes!
Raegan said, "I want to keep the shoes."

This was Raegan's first time to actually bowl.
She would say, "I want to do it all by myself."

Sydney was a pro!

Jackson got three spares!

Hide and Seek

One of our favorite games is Hide and Seek.
Raegan likes to count!

Lunch with Sydney

I try to go eat lunch with Sydney every Wednesday,
and it was a treat when "Papa" was able to come along!
We splurged and went to Pizza Hut.
