Grandparents day at school

Grandad and Nana helping Collin with his flower.

Last Thursday was grandparents day at Collin's school.  Unfortunately, Mimi was out of town and Papa had to work, but luckily Nana and Grandad were able to make it.  Collin was SO excited that they got to come to his school and visit him.  They helped him plant a flower and then played for a while before leaving.  Thanks again Nana and Grandad for coming!  Collin really enjoyed it! 

Rainy Day

Todd and I love this picture with Collin in the background..it's so funny!
Collin wanted to go out and play in the rain with his new umbrella

Still running
He caught her.  Now I see why she was running : )

I can't believe that Easter has already come and gone!  I'm a little late in updating the blog, but I wanted to be sure to include the pics of the kids.  The kids enjoyed all of the Easter egg hunts.  Lily loved finding the eggs and putting them in her basket.  It was so funny - she would put an egg in her basket and then take it out..and then put it back in again.  She wasn't aware that there was anything in the eggs.  Collin, on the other hand, was very aware of the candy inside of them.  They were so cute all dressed up and scrambling for their eggs.  We went to church on Easter Sunday and then over to Mimi and Grandad's house later that day.  One of my favorite memories of Easter this year was to hear Collin tell the story of Easter and how Jesus died for us and now looks after us in heaven.
