Easter

We celebrated Easter in Orleans this year and it was a fabulous day of church, food, family, friends and of course eggs!

Tucker and I went early with Grandma Bose to the Presbyterian Church in Orleans. We had great fun exploring the old building while Grandma prepared for communion.

Mason had stayed overnight at the Hamiltons so he got to attend sunrise service in Rep City and then church in Alma at the Berean.

Then we all met up for a feast in Orleans.

Crafty Boys

These boys of ours have a TON of energy and sometimes it takes a lot of creativity to keep them occupied. These are a few examples as of late. And yes, they usually prefer to be in their "comfies".

Muffins with Mom

The 1st Grade class hosted Muffins with Mom and I got to spend a special afternoon with my Baby Boy. Tucker made me a picture book and read it to me.  Then we watched a picture video that Mrs. Schroer and Ms. Schmer made for the entire class. We even had time for a speed round of search and find with all things "mom" related. The class was very proud of their picture backdrop and had fun snappin' pics in front of it.

Thank God I get to be Tucker's mom!

Ortho Day

After eight months of wearing expanders and braces, Mason gets to take a little break from the Orthodontist (Dr. Matt)  until the remainder of his permanent teeth come in.

While they were busy making his retainer, we had lunch at McDonalds and did some shopping at Walmart. It was an exciting day and I so enjoyed the one on one time with my boy. Now I'm taking bets as to how long it will be until the $350 retainer is lost...

Palm Sunday

This Spring, the tulips made their grand debut on Palm Sunday. What pure delight!
