It's been a busy week. We had special meetings at church each night from Monday-Friday. With Bryan driving out from Spokane, he made it home just in time to leave for church. It was hectic, but worthwhile.
On Resurrection Sunday, I didn't take any pictures. We ate with my mom, and I left my iPod at home. She took some nice pictures of the kids though! Maybe I'll have her send me one so I can update this post. (Hi mom...hint....hint....).

A snapshot of our new chicken coop and pig pen. The coop now has a door on the hole that you see. That's a storage area for me to keep bags of feed and scratch in. We are hoping to hear back on piglets this week, and get some growing.
Jeffrey has really been into drawing lately. He's showing off his picture. Unfortunately he moved right as I snapped so his picture is blurry. But he looks cute!
My little girlies getting all spruced up for special meetings. Of course Sydney only kept her rubber bands in as long as it took for me to take the picture. We'll have to work on that!
As part of my focus verse for the year, I'm really trying to pay better attention to season changes and be prepared. In that mindset, I ordered swimwear for the kids who needed it. By ordering early, I made sure that it arrived in time for swimming and splashing in the creek all summer. Owen looks handsome in his new swim shirt and shorts. We're still waiting on Jayme's new suit. We custom ordered one from Stitchin' Times, and it takes a bit longer than just generic ones of the shelf. It should last a long time though! I ordered mine from them in 2008 and it still looks great!

Thanks to Jayme for taking this picture! That's my hand you see. Another new purchase for summer. We ordered 12 silicone Popsicle molds. For their first use, I filled them up with yogurt based smoothies. Simon approves!
Ellie in the swing at the end of a long day. It's been a busy day on the farm--fixing fence, moving cows, buying hardware for the chicken coop and working on the coop. It was nice to relax this evening!
