may flowers!

april showers did bring may flowers.  i don't even know how to sum up this very emotional and exhausting month.  but i'm going to try...

• we moved into our new home and couldn't be more content and happy.
• my parents moved to lincoln.  i can't begin to tell you how happy this has made us.  we made a trip with mimi to lincoln children's museum to celebrate!
• we took a trip to south dakota to visit my grandma cooper over mother's day (see previous post).
• we took the girls to storybook land in aberdeen, south dakota.  this is a major childhood memory for me as my grandparents took me every year.  i'm thankful the girls get to have this memory with their mimi & papa as well!
• evie went bowling for the first time when celebrating a classmate's birthday.
• we have gone to the haymarket farmers market twice this month.  love that lincoln has committed to this!
• evie finished swimming lessons for this session and is a little fish now.
• my brother.in.law jason graduated from medical school!
• we went and watched my sister.in.law kinsey direct her final choir concert!
• keller turned two (more later)!
• grandma cooper went home to heaven (see previous post).
• we spent many hours outside playing, swinging, sliding, and swimming!

so here are some captured moments from our crazy month...

spring catch all

i can't believe it has been three months since i last blogged.  so much has happened i'm not sure where to start...i basically missed all of spring.

march 2014

my best friend came to visit us!  evie & keller love aunt mel and blake so much!

 

mimi and papa came to visit!

evie started swimming lessons!  she learned to love the water!

keller rocked her annual ultrasound.  her liver appears to be doing very well.  thanking God that he continues to protect little keller.

april 2014

we made a family trip up to the omaha zoo! 

and then keller got sick...again...but this was the worst sickness this year.  high fever for six days,  coughing like a seal, puking...absolutely horrible. three visits to the doctor.  a chest xray, blood draw, and 2 lbs lost.  she finally started to perk up after almost one week.

here's a pic of the first smile we (daddy) got after one week of being sick...

i received the CEHS staff award at work.  i work with awesome people and am lucky to enjoy what i do everyday.  my hubby came to join in on the fun too!

got to snuggle little man will for a night out.  love him.

got to celebrate this lady and her birthday.  love her.

we celebrated easter with the hustad clan and had a wonderful afternoon together despite the rain. 

oh, then we bought a house and moved.  and we are in love with our new home!  after moving 6 times in 6 years..never again.

Sickies

January. I'm so glad you are gone. The entire month was filled with sickness. Pukes. Colds. Ear infections. Sinus infections. KG had two rounds of antibiotics. Feeling like we are finally on the mend. Oofta. 

Star of the week!

Miss Evie was the star of the week at school. I spent time in her classroom at lunch an sure enjoyed sitting around the table with all of her friends. Thankful for a great preschool for her!

I spent last weekend with a bunch of amazing people. It's the start of a year long journey to find some rest and quiet. Loved my time with these amazing people.
