Easter

Easter was a pretty big day for us. Aunt Heather, Uncle Brian, Gabbie and Cassidy got to come to Indianola for the weekend so we got to spend a lot of time with them. It started out by seeing the new Hannah Montana movie. It was pretty cute and the girls really enjoyed it. After that we we had a grill out to celebrate Uncle Brians birthday at the Werling household.
The next day was Easter. This is my favorite holiday!! There are no big expectations that are attached to it and the meaning of Easter is absolutely amazing. Jesus carried our sins for us and beat death. Oh how much he must love us!!
We started off the morning by looking for the eggs that the Easter bunny hid around our house. After that we went to church to celebrate with our friends. When we got home Grandpa Werling, Aunt Heather and Uncle Brian had hid tons of eggs in our backyard for all of the cousins to find plus Michael and Sophie from my side of the family. It was a lot of fun but way to much candy!!! The worst part of the whole thing was that we didn't get any chocolate from the Easter Bunny. :( After our huge Easter egg hunt we went to Grandma and Grandpa Blue House's (Werling) house and ate chicken and broccolli fettucine alfredo. Not your typical Easter dinner but it was Aunt Heather's birthday celebration and that's what she likes. Overall it was a wonderful day with a lot of celebrating the resurrection of our Lord and Savior!!

It's been a long time!

It's been forever since I last wrote anything about the kids. We've been pretty busy with school and everything so I'm going to try to catch everybody up in the next few days. I think the first thing that happened was Hayden losing her first tooth.

The crazy thing was that Christian lost his second tooth on the same day.
I think it's so funny that they are both so excited when they find out their tooth is out but once they see the blood they both start screaming bloody murder but kind of laughing while doing it. It's pretty comical!

After the teeth fell out Ryan decided that he really wanted to get some camouflaged pants. I'm not sure why he all of a sudden became passionate about this but he did so we got some. After that I told him that the boys both had the same pants as their daddy. Well a picture just had to be taken then!














The last thing I'll talk about is our very ambitious endeavor with the parks in Indianola. During spring break we had beautiful weather for most of the week. Because of this weather we decided one day that each kid would get to pick a park that they wanted to play at. We played 20 minutes at each park, had a picnic at one of them and overall had a pretty successful day.











Grandma, Sophia and Michael (cousins) were brave enough to go on most of this adventure with us. It turned out to be a really good day!! Be expecting to hear a lot more real soon!
