Bekah's bridal shower

Yesterday I hostessed a bridal shower for one of our Peru team members (the one I took to the beach for pictures). We had a lot of fun. It was my first time to make a 3-tiered cake. It was way more cake than we needed, but an excuse to try this cake.

Such a big helper

Amelia longingly looks out the front door.

I just had to catch Matthew in the act of being a big helper. He loves to help us out, especially outside with daddy.

Easter

I took the kids to a church sponsored community easter egg hunt. They had a lot of fun.

Matthew decides to get his face painted. I had never seen him

sit so still.

He wanted to be a tiger.
Amelia, on the other hand, did not sit still. So all she got was a small flower.
Here are the kids (and my nephew Hunter) at my parents house ready to hunt eggs.
Amelia found an egg.
Matthew was excited with each egg.

Blog feature

You all may know this, but I just learned this. If you double-click on any photo, it will open up a large version of the photo (to see it better). Then just arrow back to get back to the blog.

Matthew and Daddy

Matthew and Daddy were all dressed up for church Sunday, so mommy took pictures of them in their suits. Matthew loves wearing his suit coat.


If Jim looks tired, it's because he was up until 2:00 am working on grad school. How fun!!!

Fun day at the park

I took Matthew and Amelia to the park yesterday and got some great shots.

Mexico team

We had another meeting, so I took some group photos. Jim told them to make their funniest faces for one of them. They are a great group of young people.
