Annie turned SEVEN!

This sweet girl had a birthday!

I love the drama and enthusiasm inside my Annie Girl.

She is the most tender hearted 1st-grader I know.

Annie is constantly leaving notes and homemade gifts for us.

Reading, water skiing, hiking, dancing, painting, and riding her bike, are just a few of Annie's favorite things.

She is willing to try new things and I love that about her!

It was Annie's year to have a "friends party".

She planned every detail and loved every minute.

The "family party" came a few nights later.

Once again, this girl was in HEAVEN.

Happy Birthday Annie Girl!!!

We love you SOO MUCH, your crazy side and all :)

Easter

This Easter we were lucky enough to have Uncle Shaun come and celebrate with us.

The girls painted these eggs while Grant was sleeping. We didn't mess with the dye this year.

While we waited for the eggs to dry, we had an easter egg hunt in our backyard... Keeping it simple :)

The kids loved it.

Easter morning was sweet. 

The kids went through their baskets, ate a yummy breakfast, and headed off to church that afternoon.

I'm grateful for my Savior. 

I'm grateful for His example.

 I know He lived, died, was resurrected, and lives again today!
