Change

When we moved into this house, our backyard was great.  However, living through a winter here has emphasized how much we need to finish it.  So this winter we hatched a plant to get rid of the "clay" and make room for the play (maybe even a dog! We will see.).  We planned to finish the yard this spring so that no more mud would be tracked into our home.  Here are are some before and after pictures....

But that isn't it.....

We have the during pictures and a few others too, enjoy....

J filling her shopping cart with Granola Bars.

That's pretty much it on the backyard.  They love it. 

Also, we have a Jocelyn that loves her purse and hats....

Liam and I put together a Resurrection egg "project" so that we could start introducing the true meaning of Easter to him. The eggs are supposed to have something inside each egg. Liam heard "crown" and "head" and this is what he did instead.

Love that kid.

Hope you all experienced the joy and peace of the Easter Story this year.  It came to life for me in a different way than ever before.

The last of our BIG news. Charlie changed jobs.  He will be working for Round Table as a Manager now.  He has the option for growth and medical.  We are so excited.  He started today and it looks promising.  Mostly it looks like the change that he needed from working as a Lineman in the wind, rain, and snow at all hours of the day, to utilizing his talents as a Manager in the food service industry.  We are so grateful for this change!
