Keddi's New Do

I like Keddi's hair this length. (1st picture) But it gets all stringy and unless I blow dry it (which she doesn't like,) it doesn't look good for very long after brushing it. She wanted an extreme cut. I asked the hairdresser to not cut it quite so short as Keddi wanted. It's cute and she loves it.

Easter Dresses

Only Tersa got a new dress this year. Because of the purchases of new ones every year, the younger girls now have too many to justify a new one for this Easter. 

Unfortunately for the younger girls, that will probably be the case for many years to come.

More Easter

Joel's favorite hiding place. A maintenance hole in the ground. Mardi wouldn't reach in to get it because there were spiders down there. (Smart girl. It was probably black widows!) So, Keddi reached in to retrieve the egg.

Easter Egg Hunt

Since we moved into this house, we have always done our Sat. Easter Egg Hunt at the "park" at the back of our neighborhood. But Joel had to clean up after way too many dogs last year and the thought of it was rather disgusting. So we decided to go our old church building. Kris came to help Joel hide the eggs. Joel is still sick and because of the double ear infections he had, his balance was a little off. 

After the egg hunt, the girls inspected their baskets and most of the kids played with the bubbles the little girls got in their baskets. I've decided to post more of those tomorrow since I got some cute shots and this post has plenty of pictures already.

Springs Preserve

On our last day of Spring Break we went to the Springs Preserve with Wilson's. They have building with exhibits and the grounds have desert plants and trails. We did a lot of walking and were quite tired when we left.

This exhibit was a Las Vegas land auction. I took a picture of each of the girls with a different statue.

There was a play area with cliffs, and fossil bones 

to climb. There was a train and water works. This was fun.

The little girls are building Vegas. We enjoyed the animals that we got to see. The bats were difficult to see but we sure enjoyed some of the lizards they had. And I took lots of pictures of the flowers they had out.
