We are here, we are here, we are here!!!

Sorry, I couldn't help it. I started typing and it just came out. Too much watching "Horton Hears a Who" I guess!
Sorry, I have been MIA for a while! I think that we are really working on getting into this schedule. Richard has been taking tests non-stop for the past 2 weeks and going to Open Labs and Study Groups. He is doing great! He is always so nervous, but has been doing great! I sure love ya hon! Richard, you are awesome!
First, I wanted to post the long promised picture of the new "Girl Room" at our house! I was nervous to have them all together, but it's great! The girls love it! They are more patient and more kind to each other. The play together a lot more and they are reading to each other more! What a cool thing!
The New Room!
Emma (almost 3yrs), Sarah (6 1/2 yrs) & Rachel (5 yrs)
We have been settling into our new city and trying to see the new things around us. The Zoo is just like 20 mins from us, so since it was opening week and free, we said, "Let's go to the Zoo!!!!". We brought a good friend from the ward with us, Naya, and had a great time. It reminded me so much of going to the zoo with the girls back home!

Sweet little Emma enjoying the really nice day!
In front of the monkeys, we stopped for a quick picture and Rachel had to take a picture of me, taking a picture of her!!! Gotta love it!!!

It's that time of year here and I got to register Rachel for Kindergarten this week! What a blast! It is going to be amazing to have Sarah and Rachel at the same school for the same time. All day Kindergarten. That is a new adventure for us! You are amazing Ms. Rachel!

Now for the Easter pictures! Our first Easter in the Midwest was great! The girls are such cuties and loved doing the Easter Egg Hunt and talking of the resurrection of Jesus Christ. We had Regional Conference that day and we had a BBQ with friends!

Sweet little girls!

Wow! All day kindergarten. That would be strange. I guess Emma will get a lot of one on one time with Mommy. You guys look great. I sure do miss you. Keep up the good work Richard!

They have grown up so much, and what beautiful girls they are! Going to the zoo sounds like a lot of fun!

Super cute Easter pictures!! Wow--Emma looks so much like Rachel in the bedroom picture--she is getting so big--I can't believe it. We are hopefully going to make it to the zoo soon with Julianne--I think she's going to love it.

Take Care!!
