Yeah - Awana is over! I'm so glad that my kids have a great place that they enjoy & encourages them to learn God's Word. Hunter and his 3 amigos! I kind of feel bad for him though, because all 3 of these boys are promoting to T&T and he has one more year of Sparks. Anyway, Savannah is about to move into T & T (sniff, sniff!) She got her Sparky plaque and a certificate for extra credit verses (192 verses, including the entire book of Philippians). She will certainly keep those T & T leaders searching for extra work for her, like she did the Sparks leaders. Hunter got a 2nd book ribbon as well as a certificate (and some pins) stating his extra credit verses (111 verses). Dawson got his 1st year cubbie bear award. A Full-size (person in a costume) Cubbie Bear & Sparky were at our awards ceremony for the kids to see & Dawson was scared to death of them. It was really kind of funny. He's such a tough boy normally & then he saw Cubbie & immediatel...

Ella's first swimsuit Yup, had to get a picture of that adorable ruffle-butt! The kids all got new swimsuits & goggles for Easter. They're very excited to use them. So, since we don't have a pool & I think it's a tad bit early for swimming....we made it work.

I just love Easter. Celebrating Christ's resurrection is just so awesome. Praise Jesus! I also thoroughly enjoy getting together with family and counting my many blessings. We got together with my family on Saturday before & as you can see, Ella was a big hit! Volleyball was another hit. We must have played 5+ games. Some of us have a little sunburn to prove it. :-)
