The Good Friday Tornado

Prior to all the Easter activities, we experienced the "Good Friday Tornado," seen hear after crossing Broad Street in Murfreesboro.

Thankfully no damage to our home, but many in town were not so lucky.

More Egg Hunting

Everyone got in on the Easter Egg Hunting.

Rachel & Sara had quite a haul.

The Hunt!

Despite plenty of experience with Easter, Anna was a little timid in her Easter Egg Hunt on Saturday.









Eventually she warmed up to the whole idea, and loaded her "Peep" shaped easter basket.












True to form, there was a "Papa Tax" on all Easter Candy.

Payable only in candy. Preferably non-chocolate.

Easter Eggs!

I'm not sure what the reference to "Papaya" is on the Easter egg...

...but the girls are a little unusual anyway. The egg in question was Sara's.

The girls had a great time on Saturday coloring Easter eggs.

Anna Gets a Haircut

Anna had hair halfway down her back.


But now she just has cute hair. A bob?


The shirt says it all: "This is what cute looks like."

Reading Together?

This is probably not exactly what they meant by having Aletta and Nathan read together.

Good luck at guessing what each of us is reading.

Rachel's Bonnet

Its not every day you can get Rachel to dress up in "girl clothes."

But Rachel looks great wearing a flower bouquet on her head.

Anna goes to School

Anna is enjoying her opportunity to go to pre-school.

She is dressed like one of Dr. Seuss' Things from "The Cat & the Hat Comes Back." She is "Thing 14" to be specific.

Anna loves to get ready for the bus, and Monika does a good job of bundling her up to keep her warm.

Aletta's Piano

Aletta is really working hard at learning the piano. She spent some of her Christmas break from school practicing. Leah has been teaching Aletta now for several months.

Too bad its back to school today!
