Lindsey Kindergarten Registration

Geez...another one is heading to Kindergarten.  This time it's our baby.  Yep, Lindsey is registered for Kindergarten.  It's so hard to believe, but at the same time feels right.  She's ready to be at school with her big sister!  So excited for her to grow and mature and learn, to see what is going to make her tick.  But until then I'm going to soak in the time with her.

Whitney Field Trip

1st Grade field trip to Imagine It to learn about sound!  And other fun things!

Family Fun Day

Geocaching!

Easter

We had some sweet friends from Charlotte come stay with us to visit and celebrate Easter.  They got in Thursday.  By Sunday, Easter morning, most of us weren't feeling too great.  So, me, Lindsey and Ben all stayed home from church, Whitney went with some friends and our friends decided to head back to Charlotte early.  Love how God can just make you slow down sometimes.  I actually needed it and it was a very relaxing Easter considering I slept most of it. :)  Even being sick, we could still rejoice in our risen Savior!

Pre-yak

Feeling much better a couple hours later...just chillin' with a bucket on her head???

So, here is our family Easter picture this year...wait for it...

This girl has an immune system that needs to be researched.  She like, NEVER, catches a bug.  Never.

Dying Eggs

Fun coloring Easter eggs!  Very serious business.

Lindsey's 5th Birthday

Lindsey got celebrated a lot on her big 5th birthday!  Hard to believe she's five.  Growing so fast.  She loves stuffed animals, I mean, her room is starting to be overtaken by them.  But she cares for each of them and has a name for all of them.  She usually always has one in her hand or close by.  She's such a sweet girl and tells us she loves us ("as much as all the universe") and hugs us at least 50 times a day.  I'll take it!

It all started the night before

Big 5 year old!  Heart pancakes, sausage and scrambled eggs for breakfast, McDonald's for lunch and Pizza for dinner at Grandma and Grandpa Lykowski's!

Spring Break in Ohio

We headed back to Ohio for Spring Break.  We hung out with lots of family, played with some pigs, celebrated birthdays, even took in the Ohio State Spring Game and visited with some old friends.  Great week!

This is how we travel...zoned out.

Uncle CJ's pigs are always a hit with Whitney.

Lindsey still wasn't so sure

Meet Honey...she's a big mama!

We celebrated my mom's 60th birthday a little early with a girls day/overnight.  Our first stop was a tea house.  The girls loved having their own hot chocolate tea pot!

Then headed to do a little shopping

Then headed to the hotel to rest up and celebrate the girls birthdays with Faythe

And try out their new purchases!

Then dinner

Other days we played with cousins

Daddy helped haul corn to the ethanol plant in the semi with some co-pilots
