Nathanael's soccer season finally started and he was able to play in his first two soccer games for the Lone Peak freshmen team. The very first game was against Pleasant Grove and his coach was unable to be there -so he asked Travis to coach that first game. It was cold and rainy but they came home victorious! I think that it will be a great memory for both of them.
Lindsay has been working on her Personal Progress goal to help plan meals, help at the grocery store, and then cook dinner for the family for two weeks. She has done a fabulous job and I am sad that it is now over. I enjoyed having a break from making dinner all the time! Cooking is definitely not my favorite things list!
Ethan's soccer season has also started. He is a good little player on defense. In his first game, Ethan got hit in the face and came home with his nose a tiny bit swollen on the tip. He said that he was tough and was able to keep playing even though he got hurt. Poor Ethan! He is always getting hit in sports. One year he was quite a ball magnet by getting hit with the soccer ball (more than once), the baseball, a baketball, etc. It did not matter what he played, the ball seemed to be attracted to his face!
Clarissa has been totally looking forward to Easter! She wrote a letter to the Easter bunny asking him to bring a brother and sister for Jenny in her Loving Family dollhouse family. Jenny is the only one with red hair and she specifically asked that the brother and sister also have red hair. The Easter bunny left an older "cousin" and her horse in Clarissa's Easter basket with a note. It explained that the Easter bunny had a little hole in the bottom of his bag and that he would send the dolls by post (it kinda rhymed with lost)-anyway, that seemed to please her and she is excited to receive a package!
Zachary loved Easter this year! We learned that he loves jelly beans and that anytime he sees a plastic egg, he thinks that there is candy in it! He also enjoyed moving all the eggs out of the basket and putting them back in over and over! It was fun to watch!
My "moment of joy" this week was when we were driving back from my mom's house after doing some fun Easter traditions. Travis put on the group, They Might Be Giants, and all of us started singing along to "Make A Little Birdhouse In Your Soul". It was fun and it was the end of a great day!

We love to hear the news. Maybe the next time Lindsay has a personal progress project to cook she can come to our house! =)
