Easter & Bowling

Friday night was a wet, rainy night so Farm Grandma thought it would be fun to go bowling. I honestly wasn't sure how we would manage Kate during that time, but she did a great job of entertaining herself and obeying the rules. :) The older three had a blast (and so did the adults).Our little drama queen :)
Jaren did great with a score of 125
This shows the craziness of our group minus Grandpa - Erica lounging on the floor, Bethany making sure the balls go the right way (adult on one side/kid on the other) Jaren & Grandma discussing the scores and Kate coughing. :)
Kate LOVED playing with the hand dryer
Best Friends
Look at that form - too bad I still beat him :)
Now we move on to our blessed Easter day. There were lots of kids running around so full of life and just plain having a great time making memories with their cousins. Looking at the picture below I'm surprised no one was run over with all the ride on toys & scooters.
The kids table
Klayton & Kate enjoyed eating together at the "toddler table"
HAPPY EASTER!

Pine Wood Derby Races

A couple of weeks ago, the kids got to participate in the pine wood derby car races at the mall. A huge thank you to my dad who took the time to cut out each can and get them ready for the races. The kids had a great time painting their cars and also racing them.Giving Grandpa bigs hugs of thanks.
