it started with a cold... then a cough... then I got better... then the boys did not...the boys ears hurt... they cried... my ears hurt because they cried... i cried Henry perked up watching Daddy and Mr. Dillman be the funny guys again, though- Linko dropped his morning nap... here he is looking for it on the floor while Mommy makes lunch- Mr. and Mrs. Furman were here!!! And they brought a little Furman too! Yep... Jesus is still risen! I checked the tomb again this year... With the closest restaurants an hour away, sandwiches at the firetower make a fun alternative-

As usual we start off fairly strong (palm branches would have been our downfall had we saved them for the end)

This is my Daddy!

Overall I'm pretty excited about them... I just worried the night I found out I needed them that my friends wouldn't recognize me. What do you think? Please pray with us that the transition goes well... they're only half strength, can't get my full prescription for another 6 mos. to let my eyes adjust.

Trips to town are long...
We try to enjoy the scenery

Field trips are fun...

Wherever we go or whatever we're doing... I'm drawing and writing notes... My stick figures have t-shirts nowadays.

Sorry Boone folks... it seems we skipped winter here this year!

Henry held a lamb... I held a lamb...

Lincoln's proud of his teeth, I guess... this is his prefered choice of smiles lately ... we can't get enough of it!

pretty typical moment in our home...

sandbox hasn't had a break this winter...

Ahhhhh, friends... God truly heard my mommy's requests!

Mommy turned old... seems to happen about once a year

It was with us for about a week before Mommy tired of fishing styrofoam from Linko's mouth- then we watched some youtube videos on demolition and went at it. It was a good house.
