Mini RUF retreat
Last weekend we packed up and headed to Virginia and stayed in a cute little house right off the Blue Ridge Parkway for a mini retreat with RUF. There were cows across the street and plenty of trees for our kiddos to climb and play in. We love our students and we were so glad that our whole family was able to come along and spend some quality time with them. Here are a few pics from our weekend complete with a hike.
Little Monkeys
Life on the farm is kind of laid back.
Some would say it's hard to pull off a tough look in osh kosh overalls but I think he's nailed it.
Maggie saw this stump and took the opportunity to play "statue."
A trip down to the "crick."
Is that a bear?
Some kickball...
A couple of Eno's were brought along to relax in but Maggie and Henry enjoyed playing "cocoon"
The whole gang minus our weekend devotional leader Forde.
Our hyper experienced trail guide.

He is Risen!
Easter is such a special time of year. I love purposefully celebrating our risen King. The victory is His, and the whole Easter weekend I feel like I am in the midst of a victory party or a world championship celebration. It is an amazing feeling to know that your Father is the reason for it all and that He did it all for you. I just love it and all the fun that comes with a party!
Our church had a massive Easter egg hunt at Latta Park complete with egg hunt, face painting, balloon animals, friends and picnicking.
Henry wouldn't settle on just picking up Easter eggs he felt the need to pick up a hot chick too.
We decorated Easter eggs with Grandma.
We acted out the resurrection story with our little people and tomb.
And enjoyed beautiful services at Uptown Church on Friday and Sunday.
In our Easter best...

Lately...
It's been three weeks since my last post and while nothing super exciting has happened I thought I should still share some photos. I know I have some Kansas readers eager to see some kiddos, so without further ado I present to you "the latest"...
We enjoy Imaginon (a children's library a few miles from our house) and the dress up clothes they offer along with story time, puppet shows and riding on the "trolley" are truly superior.Arts and crafts are a crowd pleaser.
And being silly is always in fashion ...as is using the potty! This little guy has nailed it. I have even found him going to the bathroom at 5am only to return back to bed for the rest of the "night." He is smokin' and we are so proud of him and all his transitioning as he prepares to leave his baby status and enter into his big brother role!
