What a Wonderful Week We Had

Freya became a modern "pioneer woman" and drove with the four children last Sunday to spend the week with us during Max's spring break. It was a great week and filled with lots of activity. It was fun to introduce Emmy to Westin and Jordy. They spent some "blanket time" together :)
Do you remember seeing a December blog with my three mommies waiting for their babies to be born??? Well here they are....and we are so thankful for three healthy babies. Carly & Westin (born 12/28/11).

Freya and Emmy (born 1/1/12)
Rebecca and Jordy (born 3/12/12)
We went to the Discovery Center Tuesday afternoon and practically had a private party. It was nice the kids could go from activity to activity with no waiting in line. Max was working with the grain and augers.
Henry stayed busy in the wood shop. Check out his tongue :)
Lena stayed up with the big kids!
After a stop at Kohls, we grabbed a bite at McDonalds. The rest of us had ice cream sundaes, but Henry ended up with this huge ice cream cone. Yep.....he ate every bit of it!
Emmy - 3 months old
Check out those million dollar smiles, folks!
A rare quiet time for Henry.
Max spent literally hours bouncing and shooting the basketball.
Check out the photography on this one!!
The scooter.....with helmet.....was a popular toy. Poor Henry's knees; he took some falls.
Great Grandpa and Grandma Varner came up on Friday and saw all the great-grandchildren. Tyler wanted to sit beside Gr Grandpa and share his "de-de" i.e. blanket, with him.
Lots of precious kids.
L to R: Jordy, Joshua, Emmy, Max, Lena, Tyler, Westin, Kayla and Henry
We had a much-anticipated Easter egg hunt after lunch. Get ready, get set, go!
Well, Friday night was our Good Friday Service; then early Sunday morning Freya and the children packed up and headed back to Indiana. What a fun week!
Easter Sunday. We kept Joshua, Kayla and Tyler since Mommy and Daddy had a big morning at church.
