A Short Spring Storm

We had a very short storm this evening, but it produced the most beautiful rainbow. It hailed a little, too.

Science Fair

It's amazing to me that my little baby is in elementary school, and able to do more than just walk and talk. The latest evidence that she's not quite so little anymore is that she did a project for the school science fair. She was one of about six in the kindergarten and first grade to do a project. She attempted to make rock candy. I suppose she leaned something about patience, as the crytals still haven't grown much. She made a lovely poster for the fair, though.

The official Easter portrait.



The Easter Egg hunt at church. They held the hunt inside due to the rain. The very tall munchkin is Pierce, one of Alayna's favorite people. He was the high-schooler in charge of the K-2 egg hunt.
Alayna with Papa and Grandma







Alayna and her doll, Isabella. When we went to get Alayna's Easter dress, there were these really beautiful dresses that came with matching doll dresses. Alayna was heart broken when they didn't fit. So I did the next best thing and made Isabella a dress to match.
