Nathan likes to stand behind his pulpit and "preach" Psalm 1.

We went to Wisconsin Dells during spring break. We ate at Paul Bunyon's for breakfast one morning. It was delicious! : )

Alyssa had her 1st birthday while we were there.

...uh, Carter???Carter's birthday is two days after Alyssa's. He turned four on March 30th.

The kids enjoyed this indoor amusement park! : )

Joanna lost her first tooth...just as Alyssa is finally getting a few! : )

The kids enjoyed the "Family Fun Festival" at school.

Sweet dreams...

Joanna was in a Christmas concert

at school on Friday night.

Alyssa didn't get to sing, but

she still wanted to match Joanna. ; )
What sweet little angels...
...and this is what it was really like
trying to get them all to smile at the same time!
There she is in the front row! : )
It takes lots of concentration to ring those bells...
especially when you're wearing
an itchy ole' Christmas dress! ; )
