Ice Skating

As a Christmas gift, Nonnie and Grandpa gave Luke and Audrey ice skating lessons.  They started in January and went weekly for 8 weeks.  I was amazed at how much they learned in that short period.  We went for free skate a couple of times, and I had to keep up with them.  They loved ice skating, and can't wait to do it again.  Here are some pics from their lessons.

This girl came to every lesson, and loved watching them skate. "When I bigger, I do it!"

Thanks Nonnie and Grandpa for such a fun gift!  I also included a fun winter night by the fire with our little crew.  Audrey looks about 16 years old!  Nothing better than hanging with my people. =)



Easter

We had a wonderful Easter celebrating with both sides of the family.  We mixed things up a little this year, and went to the lake with the Gibsons.  It was strange not going to church on Easter Sunday, but we had our own service outside.  Luke had prepared an original song, some scripture, a magic trick that resembled Jesus disappearing from the tomb, and much more.  It was a very special Easter we will never forget.  When we got home on Sunday, we headed to Nonnie and Grandpa's house for Easter with the Gahans.  Again, we had special time with people we love.  Here are pics from Easter weekend, and from the girls Easter celebrations at school.

Jesus said to her, "I am the resurrection and the life.  He who believes in me will live, even though he dies; and whoever lives and believes in me will never die.- John 11:25-26
