Alone

Paul and I are in Atlanta, by ourselves! We are attending "A Weekend to Remember" by Familylife. It is a marriage conference and we are looking forward to it and the time away. The kids are staying with some good friends of ours, and are having as much fun there as we are here. (Nana and Poppy are out of town so they couldn't watch them this weekend). This conference gets over Sunday afternoon then we are headed to the North Georgia Mountains for 2 days. We are so looking forward to this get away.

The Annual Easter Egg Hunt



















Easter Sunday Morning

Sam looked so handsome in his suit and tie. He was so proud to look "like dad".
My 4 youngest children. The oldest were already at church.
Ben, being cooperative again!
Ellie had the whole ensemble- new dress, new shoes, new hat, new gloves.
Anna looking so grown up in her new dress.






Zachary playing the prelude before the service.

Walking down to meet dad at the end of the service.
Ben just started taking this walk a few weeks ago, and now, when he hears the Doxology being played, he's ready to go meet dad.

My children.
Dad with his sons
Dad and the little boys

Me and the girls.
It won't be long before Anna is as tall as me.

Cooperation (NOT)






Yep, that's about all the pictures we got of Ben. He was having none of it.

Anna




Ellie's New Bike

Ellie saved up her money from her birthday and was able to buy a brand new bike that had been marked down. She is loving it. Nothing says fun to a 10 year old like a new bike!
