Happy Easter!
We had a great weekend! Natalie and her family came out from Fernley, NV with her 4 children and we had a great time! I should say Savanna had a great time. She had someone to play with for the last 4 days. She was really sad to see them go home today. I think she finally caught up on her sleep today. She played so hard while they were here. You can see that Savanna was a little exhausted during her play time as well!

I wanted to show off their Easter dresses. I did attempt to sew this year. I didn't sew them all by myself however. I got as far as cutting them out and sewing the bodices, but that's about as far as I got before I got too frustrated. My mom was kind enough to help me by sewing the rest of the dresses for me! They turned out beautiful of course! It's funny that I love to dress my girls alike and I really didn't care for being dressed them same as my sister while we were growing up. Oh well, they're not old enough to not like it. I'll keep it up until they can talk me out of it!

Hip, Hip, Hooray! Yes, we finally decided to buy a house! Actually, it's a townhouse. It's brand new and it's got lots of room. (about 1830 sq ft with a garage.) We're not giving up on our land, but we also can't live at grandma and grandpa's house forever. The townhouse is in the process of being built right now and should be done by the beginning of May. With our luck, it may be later, but at least we know it's going to be built.
We took some time last Saturday to take a little "hike". We went up to the "DIXIE" and hiked around there. We had a great time. Savanna is a great little hiker. She crawled around in the little "caves" and climbed up and down the rocks. She didn't want to leave because she was having such a great time! She took her little back pack and filled it with books and her water canteen and other things. She felt like she was very prepared for this hike! Of course, you know who carried it around most of the time! Anyway, we got some great pictures and just had a great family day!
