Gotta love spring!

I love spring! So often, here in AZ, you could stay inside for a day and miss it. But this year, spring keeps coming back to visit! It doesn't make any sense that we had highs in the 90s back in February, and in April we've had some highs in the 60s, and tons of wind. Nonetheless, I'll take it!!!

That said, we had to get our kids signed up for some spring sports. So Allie is doing soccer and Jack is playing baseball. Allie has a great team, made up of her cousin, Hailey, and three friends from her preschool class. And better yet, she has the most handsome coach!
Just got a goal
Allie is cheering after her fellow Care Bear, Sofia, scored a goal. Way to go!

Pep talk
This is the handsome coach I was talking about. He is full of encouragement and high-fives for the girls. They are all having fun, which is the most important thing in soccer, so I would definitely say they are having a winning season!

In the dugout
Jack is really enjoying baseball. He is doing a great job learning how to bat, both when the coach pitches the ball and when it is on the tee. And he is learning the basics of baseball. If you're ever in search of some fun on a Saturday, just come out and watch a game!

Keep your eye on the ballJack is about to hit an inside the park single! (They don't ever run past first base, so that the fielders can work on getting the ball over to first.) Good hit, Jack!

Disney on IceThe girls and I had a special girls day out at Disney on Ice. We brought our good friend, Regan, with us too! They loved seeing all the characters!

Happy Easter
I could post a hundred photos of our four different egg hunts, but I will spare you. Here is our favorite four kiddos at church on Easter morning. While we might have had eggs coming out of our ears by the end of the day, I pray that the kids really rejoiced in their risen savior. O happy day!

Wonderful Wednesday with Jack
It is my turn again to take each of the kids out on Wonderful Wednesdays! Last week, I enjoyed some frozen yogurt with Macy, and this week I got to visit the lego store and puppy store at the mall with Jack. I love the one-on-one time!

Lost her 3rd tooth
With Macy's first bite of dinner this past Wednesday, she loosened a tooth that has been loose for months. It was ready to come out, but it wasn't necessarily going to be easy. We have a neighbor with a knack for pulling teeth, so we paid him a visit, and came away with one less tooth! Macy was a brave girl. Way to go!
