Easter 2014

The girls and I headed to MA Friday night. Saturday morning we had a memorial service for my cousin Randy Pratt that lived in AZ but is buried in Diagonal. It was a beautiful service and he will be missed my many. Today the kids had a egg hunt. It was a beautiful weekend, I think spring is finally here!!  YAY!!!

Shawn Johnson

Hannah's class did reports on famous Iowans a couple weeks ago. She chose Shawn Johnson for her love of gymnastics. Each student wrote a few facts about their person on t-shirts. The shirts were hung up in the classroom.

We woke up this morning to eggs in our yard, so of course we had to head outside to see what it was all about.
