Made with Love by Grandma



We sure were surprised to get this lovely dress from Grandma! It is so beautiful and Emma looks adorable in it! We love everything Grandma knits! The most special things she's made for the kids are their 1st blankets... even Josh still adores his and sleeps with his every night. We sure are lucky to have a Grandma so very talented!

Eric's Birthday


We celebrated Eric's birthday in March. He asked for an ice cream cake. We tried the one from Walmart a few years ago... not bad, but nothing special. This year we stopped by Marble Slab and it was a winner! There was a thin slice of cake on the bottom and the rest was made of this rich sweet cream ice cream with strawberries mixed in! We had to modify the candles so we didn't melt the cake! You may have to take yourself back to grade school to remember this, but... my nephew decided that the 3 candles on the top were in the ten's place and the ones on the bottom were in the one's place... Thirty-Two! Great idea and Eric blew them out with one breath. I hope he got his wish!

Emma had fun taking pictures on her first Easter Day! Everyone was clapping for her and making her smile the whole time. She was eating up all the attention! We even introduced her to Bun Bun, Kori's bunny. Her Easter was then complete... a pretty dress from her friend Autumn, colorful eggs her brother's dyed, and a cute bunny.
