Carsten in the bath

Morgen used to do this too with the toy bucket.  I wonder if our next child will too.  It makes for some funny pictures.  

Kitchen

A brief moment where my kitchen is really clean so I took a picture.

Friends

Our friends the Carstensen's came up to visit from Iowa.  They moved there last fall and we have missed them.  Morgen really likes Maggie.  Michelle used to watch Morgen and Carsten on Thursday's while I taught piano.  

Friday night all the girls went out.  Lot's of fun visiting without the kids!

Saturday night everyone came over to our house for dessert.  Here is there new son Jacob.  He looks so much like Sam and Maggie.

Signs of Spring

A couple of weeks ago Morgen planted some flowers.  

Here she is admiring her growing flowers. 

A few days later...

 

Happy Easter!

We have all had the flu and been quite sick,

 so it was a blessing to be able to get to church this Easter morning! 

We made it to the Easter Breakfast at church at 9:00 a.m.

Carsten being Carsten

Morgen and her friends Chloe and Paige

Our tradition is to have their pics taken with the flowers in the church.

We enjoyed the song service, but because I couldn't stop coughing, and the kids couldn't go in the nursery yet, we left early.  We are thankful to have at least been able to worship and celebrate the risen Savior!  Hallelujah!  He is Risen! 

Sunday Best

Morgen and Carsten are dressed for church.
Carsten got a suit a few weeks ago and I wanted to make sure and get a picture of him in it before he grows out of it. They're growing so fast now. It's kind of sad.

Basketball Season

March Madness

Carsten and Eric shot hoops before bed tonight.

Morgen got in on the action as you can see.

Notice her ball is pink and really a soccer ball. : )
