Happy Spring

We are so glad that Spring has finally arrived in Indiana.

The snow boots and parkas have been put away and Spring clothes have made their debut.

And with Spring comes extra trips to the park.












What a great afternoon!

John Knox Easter Festival

Each year the Sparkles enjoy visiting the Easter festival at Nana's church.

Here are a few highlights of their adventures...


The girls enjoyed decorating their crosses


And re-enacting the Easter Story (Lillian loved being the Angel at the Tomb)
 It is always fun to play the games...
Cooper enjoyed the bean bag toss
 While Lillian liked the game with buckets
 And there is always time for shooting a few hoops
Another successful adventure

Hunting Eggs

Easter would not be complete without an Easter Egg hunt!

Due to the weather... the Sparkles hunted their eggs in Papa's apartment.


Lillian and Cooper were to hunt in Living Room and Dining Room



 While Madison was to hunt in the kitchen

 Cooper had to take frequent cereal breaks... He was a hungry boy!
 Checking out the collected loot.... 56 more eggs to find :)


 McDonalds coupons in their Easter baskets
 Inventory of the Loot... Reese eggs, Starburst jelly beans, M&M's, chocolate eggs, hair ties and more.
 Easter Basket surprises :)

We had a wonderful Easter together...

Our beautiful Sparkles
 Just a few pictures at Papa's church before the service

Our first of many attempts to capture the 3 Sparkles together...


 Two smiling...
 One unhappy Easter princess
 Now a silly faced Easter princess
 Finally a smile

 Mama's Sparkles... all together and happy






Christ is Risen... He is Risen Indeed!

We are blessed!
