Easter

Rehm and Charlotte dyed Easter eggs with Grandma on Saturday before Rehm's baseball game. They did a really nice job with them and didn't make too big of a mess. Of course Ruby and Eliza Claire are oblivious to the fact that easter egg dyeing happens - poor neglected children. Rehm and Charlotte were dyeing eggs by the time they were the twins age but I just wasn't willing to tackle it with all four this year - maybe next year. We'll see.

Sunday we got up and got everyone ready for Easter church. We were only 5-10 minutes late for the 8:00 am service. I think that is doing pretty good since we had to get everyone up and dressed, see what the Easter Bunny brought, take pictures, eat breakfast and get in the car by 7:40.

They sure look cute, but I'm still not sure you can tell I ironed their clothes...

Happy Easter,
Jenn

Beautiful kids, beautiful family - hope you had a beautiful day!
(And don't worry about not letting the twins dye eggs - I managed to put it off ofr 8.5 years with Brenna!); 4:35 PM

Our Cast

This is what happens when two math geeks marry and have four kids!

Jenn
I work part time at my church as an Interim Office Assistant. I am having weight loss surgery on 12/31/18 (gastric sleeve). I love to quilt, sew, craft, blog and read. Sometimes I love to cook, sometimes I hate it. I hate doing laundry and dishes. I love a good novel, but am not much of a non-fiction or literature reader . I love animals and rescue. In addition to our four two-legged kids, we also have three four-legged kids. Having a foster dog or two is not that unusual for us as I am a sucker for an animal in need. I love my kids and being a mom, except for when I want to run away from it all. In my next life I would like a clean house.

Michael
Our crazy leader. He loves all things Texas A&M (whoop!), college football, good beer, coaching kids sports, and his family. He even loves his wife enough to put up with all her crazy ideas, pets, and foster pets.

Sam-I-Am
Our firstborn Samuel Frank who died at birth in 1999. He was our gorgeous, curly, red-headed baby boy. He may not be with us on earth but he is still a big part of our family. We miss every day and love him very much.

Le President
Our oldest son Rehm. He is my walking encyclopedia. He loves politics, band, scouts, friends, school, learning, debating, leadership, and being right about everything, even when he's not. We affectionately call him Captain Oblivious because if there is something happening that he is not the center of he is completely clueless. He is currently waiting for college acceptances and planning the next step in his life. He only likes to read non-fiction, which I really don't understand.

Latte
Our oldest daughter. She is the most empathetic girl I know. She loves school, dancing, performing, and all things social. She is loud and dramatic, mostly in a good way. She is rocking her first year of high school and learning to drive. She hates riding long distances in the car. She is as stubborn as her mother, especially when dealing with her mother.

Rubylicious
Our feisty second daughter. She is very dramatic. Her world is one of extremes. There is never any doubt about how Ruby feels about something or someone. She loves cheerleading at her middle school, tumbling, reading, friends, arts and crafts, making a mess, and her pets.

Dirt
Our cautious third daughter. She is very sensitive and likes to do things in her own way and own time. She loves to play sports. She is currently playing softball with an American Freedom Team and basketball at her middle school. She dislikes change of any kind for any reason.
