We have some lovely friend who took us to the local Eric carle museum on a Rainy day during during school vaca week.
Purple and pink
I'm so grateful that Olivia can pick out her own clothes and get herself deessed. What a huge help! Before the weather changes and she outgrows these clothes I wanted to try and document some of her favorite outfits.

Worms!
Today at the family center there was a special guest who brought real love worms!!! Isaac enjoyed looking at it with the telescope but didn't want to touch it. He even got to bring one home... Fun stuff as a mom!!! Hahaha...

Men/women's retreat
Saturday April 12 was the men and women's retreat days for our Umass students. The men headed to breakfast at a local sugar shack and then off to pray at the haystack revival monument. Isaac got to join them and loved it!
Meanwhile four women students headed east to Worcester to our good friend Anika and Nathan Smith's house for the day. They showed such hospitality to our group! Anika led us through time in the word and served delicious food. We tried to teach cross stitch but it was probably a bit too ambitious for such a short time. And we got to head outside for a hike in the beautiful weather!!! We had lovely time together.
Samuel 7 months
Yesterday Samuel turned 7 months old. He is closer to one than not and looks like he could already be one in size! He cut two teeth this month- the bottom two front ones. More may have more on the way. He loves to eat! He has had pears, apples, peaches, peas, bananas, babymums, avocado and more. He can sit up pretty well on his own. He wants to stand but can't just yet. He still doesn't get much tummy time- and when he does, he usually rolls over. Still doesn't sleep through the night but is maybe sleeping for longer stretches. Might just be my wishful thinking:) He has started sharing a room with his siblings though! He smiles often and is generally a very happy baby. We love him!
Olivia and her sister friend Inez giving Sam some love.

My little brother got married!!!
On Saturday my brother tied the knot, I got a wonderful sister in law and my daughter was a beautiful flower girl. I didn't take many photos on my phone but there will be plenty on Facebook I am sure if you are interested. Liz and I celebrated with Jocelyn Thursday night with bowling and dinner. Sam joined my mom and me for pretty nails Friday morning. Friday night was the practice run which we were smart enough to get childcare for the boys for. And Saturday was the big day. It was a sunny, chilly day but the bride and groom smiled the whole day! Olivia did great- dancing the night away even! Sam and Isaac mostly slept after the ceremony and pictures. Sunday Olivia slept till almost ten! And Nate finally got to see frozen. We are all slowly recovering as we return to "normal" life around here. Congrats Matt and Jocelyn!!! 
On the way to the wedding the kids playing with teddy and puppy- so excited!
The morning after...
At the rehersal dinner with the groom.
