Charity

I have been thinking a lot about this quote lately. I try to read it everyday with the hopes of being a better person. I really do feel this way, but it is easy to let my mind and mouth do otherwise.

" Perhaps the greatest charity comes when we are kind to each other, when we don't judge or categorize someone else, when we simply give each other the benefit of the doubt or remain quiet. Charity is accepting someone's differences, weaknesses, and shortcomings; having patience with someone who has let us down; or resisiting the impulse to become offended.... Charity is refusing to take advantage of another's weakness and be willing to forgive someone who has hurt us. Charity is expecting the best of each other." (author unknown)

Just a little something to think about :-)

TRADITIONS

I love this time of the year. We have established a few traditions in our family. One of those would be the Easter Pageant. We figured out that this was our 16th year of going . (One of our 1st dates was to the pageant.) I love it so much that I have decided that next year me and my girls are going to try out. I am so excited about it! Wish us luck!This is Ashley's bff Karen. She was in the pageant. She was the one sitting on the rock when Jesus was telling the story of the 10 virgins. Pretty cool.

This is Haley's bff Chantel. She also was in the pageant. My girls are blessed with great friends.

Saturday the Easter Bunny comes to our house. After the fun, we go to eat breakfast with the bunny and have a great Easter egg hunt. Mikey wasn't so sure what to think.

Jason is petrified of the bunny. When we were eating breakfast and the bunny came by, Jason headed straight under the table.

Sunday is our day to think about the Resurrection and what Our Savior did for us. We love that day to enjoy church and spending time with our families and of course.....to eat.
Mikey loves both of his Grandmas. He is such a pleasant little guy and full of love. What a joy he is to us. We are all so in love with him.

HAPPY EASTER to all!!!

Craftie Katie

My little girl is a girly girl. I love it. She loves bling, pink, and shoes. Last night she cleaned the kitchen and mop all my wood floor, so I decided to do something nice for her. She has been asking me for a while to go to the ribbon store get stuff to make flowers for her hair. As you can see we did just that. We also made something to hold all her new clips. She has my love of baking. I think all my girls do. Katie just loves to work with her hands. I think she looks pretty cute in her Chefs coat and hat. That's my baby girl!
