I love to tell the Story...

Here's one of the sweet cleaning ladies that works around our apartment! We love to talk with her and she's always up for a story!
We had a PRECIOUS time celebrating this past week with our friends, teachers, and classmates! Val taught us how to make these yummy cookies from scratch!We had a party for some friends, who got to hear all about the Easter story! We played games, read stories, and ATE...just having a really good time!
I got to demo for everyone how to throw back a PIXY STIX! Thanks so much for sending them Jenny & Kaci...they were such a hit!
We spent some time dying eggs, which our friends loved! So I just recently made a connection in my brain...the egg symbolizes a New Life!

The egg hunt was also a BLAST!

So many reasons to CELEBRATE!

So many sweet reasons to celebrate this week! Here a few you may not know about...

Oh...how I love my Mama! She's my best friend, my role model, my encourager, my confidant...and she's TEACHER OF THE YEAR!!! "Many women do noble things, but you surpass them all!"


The same way Morgan's show us who's boss in this picture is the same way she keeps her precious little residents under control...they love her SO much they named her "STAFF MEMBER OF THE MONTH!"
2 in a ROW! The GATORS once again take the title of National Champs this year in Basketball!

The ZOO!

An exciting little trip to the zoo w/ lots of "firsts"!My 1st time to see a panda!
Ice Cream BREAK! My 1st time to try this really yummy ice cream I always see everyone eating!
1st time I've looked at an animal and thought "Bless...what in the world is that?" I'm still wondering the same thing!
And my 1st time to feed a monkey! We bought little cereal like snacks to feed the bears...but the bears were no where to be found. So I got to use my stretch-armstrong arms to reach across the railing and stick food through the cage to feed the monkeys!


Pure Country!

We got to spend some retreat time this month out in the COUNTRY!
3 little pigs went to market!
Aint he cute!


No, I didn't bungee jump...and yes, those are monkeys!
