Spring Happenings
What is spring in Minnesota without a few surprise snowstorms?
Katie turned 17 on April 4! Kyle and Ella were at our house that day, and they were happy to help celebrate.
I think this was when they were helping Mom wrap Katie's presents. See, there's a good reason I insist on saving all those boxes!
We also got to take care of Lyndi again for a day - such a sweetheart!
Our church is sending a team of people to Bangladesh in November to minister to missionaries there at a conference. Mom is helping raise funding and support for the team, and one of the things they did was put on a fundraising meal with traditional Bengali food.
I had a bunch of fun cooking up these really thin tortilla-kinda things.
Only in Minnesota can Easter be the latest it's been in years and still have snow piles.
This was Easter morning (the picture got put on out of order and I didn't take the time to reload it). We figured we were past due for an updated picture of the three of us.
Some of the cousins after the Easter egg hunt at Grandpa and Grandma's. Amy and Katie are in the back, left to right in the front are Taylor, Carson, Hannah's boyfriend Addison, and Hannah.
We had the choir finale at our church.
Pies for dessert after the concert!
Dad doesn't often make it on the blog, mostly because he rolls his eyes and gives us "the look" every time we try to take a picture of him, but he didn't mind getting his picture taken on this particular day. I couldn't tell you what kind it is (Amy could though, if you really need to know), but he's pretty excited about it. He's ridden it to work every day since he got it last weekend, and I think he's going to until he gets icicles on his beard during the ride over.
Katie went to Alternative Prom at the Hampton Inn. Doesn't she look beautiful?
