Last Sunday, after I got dressed for church, Amelia comes in and says she wants to match me. I'll take it as long as I can!
After church (and a church meeting we forgot about), we headed out for a quick hike. Amelia said she wanted to match me again! I
don't know what was going on, but I like it!
All of the rain we got last week has turned everything green! It's a great change from the dead, brown we see all of the time.
When we got home, we played in the yard for awhile and then made a fire. Caleb wanted to learn to chop wood.
Monday, the kids received three different packages for Easter. It was like Christmas! Thank you!!
Caleb got a camping knife.
The rest of the week, we ran errands and saw Peter Rabbit...which was so good by the way!!
Yesterday, we finally used our gift certificates (from Christmas) from Great Aunt Trina to DojoBoom. Kevin Bull, the American Ninja Warrior, opened a trampoline place. It was awesome! Our neighbors met us there and they had a great time!
If you look behind Caleb, the man standing there is Kevin Bull. I can't believe he was actually there working!
Later that afternoon, the street was filled with neighborhood kids playing. There were some trying to play baseball across the street that some were riding scooters and bikes. It was inevitable that someone was going to get hurt. That someone was Amelia. She scraped up her shoulder pretty bad, her hip and her elbow. We will be going out today to get bigger bandaids and gauze to keep this clean.
(Don't pay attention to the other two bandaids in the picture. Those were past injuries).
We had planned a trip to the beach today, but I don't think ocean water would help her heal. We plan on coloring Easter eggs tonight and then tomorrow we're meeting our friend, The Plots, in a little Dutch town, Solvang, that's about 1.5 hours north of us. That will probably be the last time we see them for the next three years.
