Palm Sunday Fun

The kids were sick last weekend and we decided to do an "in-home" Palm Sunday celebration. We decorated eggs-Cardiff mostly knocked over all the dye , and Brian even came into the family room riding on a rocking horse. I pulled branches off the trees and we shouted "Hosanna!". Then, we told the story of Palm Sunday. I even brought the kids into the kitchen and had them taste vinegar :). All in all, it was a very fun day and I think they learned something. Although, the other day Tallinn said to Brian about Cardiff "I know, maybe we should call him the king of the Jews." Kids!

Big Stander, Funny Faces




Car cracks us up with some of the faces he makes. While we were at the zoo the other day, he was standing for awhile on the grass and showed off some of our favorites.

Prima Ballerina, or Little Gymnast

Addie started gymnastics last week for the first time. We were waiting until she turned three and since she's almost there, she just made it. After watching Tallinn for a few sessions and getting comfortable with the teacher, mostly because the teacher always gave her a stamp, she decided she wanted to do gymnastics, too. Pretty cute! Auntie Alicia gave her her little ballet outfit as a shower gift.
