Catching up, and Ketchup

The last few weeks have been pretty quiet, it has been the weekends that are full of activity. Two weekends ago was my grandmother's memorial service that went very well, except for the very rainy weather. It was a little harder than I thought it would be revisiting the cemetery less than a year after my mom's death, but I feel a fresh start now and ready to move forward. That includes enjoying the kids and our family, taking care of my health, continuing to look to God daily for strength!

Last weekend we spent Easter weekend with Kevin's brother in Delaware. It was great to have some one on one time with them, and I look forward to meeting our new niece in the next few months. Traveling with the kids was great for the most part, and we'll really be good to go in another year or so with Noah. We spent an afternoon at the Children's Museum in Wilmington, and the kids loved it.

Noah and Rachel are the same weight, which I can feel every time Noah asks to be picked up.

Daniel got a tent that all the kids enjoyed as a birthday present.
Here Daniel is playing at the water table at the children's museum...he spent most of the time there. I love seeing the concentration on his face.

Noah and Lila are only a month apart. They seemed to have fun with each other, but also knew how to get at each other.
Rachel loved their pets, especial their dog Zoi....maybe a dog will be in our future?
Kristin took some great Easter pictures with her camera, and here is on of the kids from our camera.

The weather is finally turning around. Since moving here we have experienced one of the worst winters, and rainiest Aprils on record. I have some plants started in the back room and am making plans for a garden and doing some more things on the house.

Also, this past Tuesday was the last of the Co-op that we were apart of for the last 8 weeks, and it was great! They have a showcase this Friday night that Daniel is going sing in chorus in, and we look forward to participating in the co-op in the fall. I also look forward to meeting and getting to know some other mom's in the area.

Oh, and Ketchup is one of our favorite condiments (as in the title).
