Crosscakes!

 Ross made us cross pancakes on Easter Sunday! He makes the best pancakes and is so good at it, too! 

Easter 2023

We had a nice Easter! We colored Easter eggs on Saturday and played outside because the weather was just beautiful! We went to church on Sunday morning and then took our usual Easter pictures on the front porch. We enjoyed hanging out outside because the weather was beautiful again on Sunday! Lucy played her violin outside and Molly skated in her new roller skates. I enjoyed reading and soaking up the sun! My parents and Trevor came over for Easter dinner and we had fun doing a few Easter egg hunts! I love Easter! It's my favorite holiday! 

Spring Pictures

I decided to take the girls to JC Penny and have some pictures taken. I used to do this ALL the time when they were little but I thin it's been two years since we've been there. I'm so happy with how these pictures turned out! The pictures with the green background are their school spring pictures. 

Goals...

This was in Lucy's backpack one day with some other papers she brought home from school. If you can't read it, here's what it says:  

My goals for 4th quarter or beyond:  I want to be in at least 6 plays and in at least 1 movie by the time I'm 13. 

How I'm going to reach my goals:  Do plays during the school year and get an acting agent.

Who can help me:  My mom.

I love this for so many reasons! She probably did this during counselor time and I'm betting the counselor was more so looking for school-type goals! I love how Lucy says 6 plays and 1 movie by the time she's 13! It's so sweet to me. Lucy has a desire to be famous some day and be an actor!

I love how she says she's going to get an agent! This is something she's asked me about a few times - if she could get an acting agent. And I love, love, love how she says "my mom" will help her reach her goals. Lucy is so sweet! :)

First Friday Drum Line & Succulents

Last week was the first Friday of the month so for PTA we continued on with our First Friday Fun days for teachers! We had Eagleton in the morning carline and we had the Kickapoo Drum Line playing greeting students. Kickapoo is the high school that students who go to our elementary school will go to, so it's fun having them there. We had the drum line at the November First Friday and it was so neat! Everyone loved hearing them in the morning. They woke up the whole neighborhood!

We gave our teachers a little succulent plant as a treat for that day. They plants were so cute and we got lots of compliments and thanks for them. Only one more First Friday left of the school year! This was my idea and I started this fun little thing. I'm glad I did because it has been fun! 

St. Patrick's Day Photos

 The picture below is from St. Patrick's Day 2023 and the picture below it is from St. Patrick's Day 2015! 2015 was Molly's first St. Patrick's Day and I snapped the photo of them together on the couch. Since then I've tried to recreate this picture each year. So far not too bad!
