HAPPY EASTER!

The girls before church . . . The girls before the egg hunt at the Brown's house. Thanks to the Brown's for hiding 125 eggs! WE HAVE SO MUCH CANDY!

Maggie looking for eggs.

Molly found an egg . . .

Caroline is on the lookout for a few more eggs.

We had lots of fun and enjoyed the weather . . . when we got home the girls played golf with their new clubs (Christmas gift from Grandma and Grandpa Stock!)

The girls loved their Valentine's from Grandma and Papa!

We painted yesterday afternoon. It has been REALLY cold so we have been looking for new fun things to do INSIDE. The older girls got acryllic paints and canvases for Christmas - they thought they were real artists (with their paper plate palettes). Caroline has not graduated from watercolors yet. Here's Caroline . . .

Earlier in the day, Maggie went to a birthday party where her hair was styled into an updo with a tiara and her nails were painted. That's why her hair is so fancy . . . check out her missing front teeth!
Here's Molly . . . creating her masterpiece. She says she wants Grandma to hang it in her house!!

We love sledding!

We had lots of fun sledding with the Tubergens and Browns.

Merry Christmas!

We had Todd's parents over for Christmas Eve dinner . . . here's the table before dinner. We made our first Prime Rib - that took a little longer than we anticipated to cook . . .

Where's the Beef??? Right here . . . finally!

Here are the girls dressed up for Christmas Eve . . .

Molly . . .

Maggie . . .

Here are the girls with their new scarves (Thanks Mrs. Krebs!) all ready for Christmas Eve church!

Christmas Morning . . . at the top of the stairs waiting to see what Santa brought.

All the stockings were hung by the chimney with care . . .

Here's everyone with their stockings . . .

Meet our new family members . . . Molly's doll Holly.

Happy Halloween!

Happy Halloween from the Stocks!
