Springtime Fun

May 12, 2009 at the church building: (Maren is in front) Maren has been taking a dance class from a lady in our ward one night a week.

These pictures are from the second to last class. She is now finnished for the summer.

She loves the pretty clothes and hair, the music, the sparkles, and following the teacher. She has a lot of fun.

May 18, 2009 at the quad cities zoo:

Feeding the goats and smelling the flowers.

May 20, 2009 at home:

These are are tomatos. I hope we get to eat at least one before the coons get them.

Eliza found that there is something about sticks and rocks that make for timeless toys.

Cute Eliza splashing in the puddle and having the time of her life.

Maren found a bug and became completely distracted.
We had a lot of fun outside in the good weather.

March, April, May

March ended with a chance to fly the kite Santa left in Maren's stocking. We had a lot of fun creating some of our own wind. Marn enjoyed it and still talks about it. Eliza just like the running around.

Easter came and went. It was fun to have Easter egg hunt with The Hundertmarks and Suzie and Erin at Papa's.

It was nice to see all the siblings even

if it was for a funeral. Maren Loves going out in the rain. Good thing it's spring.

Hey Beth, Maren loves the "princess hair style" you introduced to her. Too bad the master at getting her to hold still doesn't live nearby. Then just this Month Maren started to show a bit of interest in climbing trees. Here are some pictures of her in the tree by our back door.We hope all you mother's have a great Mother's Day!
