We're Here

yes, we need haircuts badly...maybe now that dad is home, we can get some
E. thinks he looks serious here....he's funny

I know it's been a long time since we posted on our blog. We have lots of great pix that we want to put up on here but our mom's computer is moving really turtle-y slow these days.

This past Friday night, E. and I went on a youth activity with our church youth group. We went up to a place called Laser Flash and it was quite interesting! We were up all night and pretty tired all the next day! It was fun though and we are glad we went. Our youth pastor, Seth, is a cool guy! He arranges some fun activities for the teens!

We had a really nice Easter...Mel, E. and I helped out with an egg hunt for Piper and Levi...we made sure to hide some eggs for our own hunt as well. it was a lot of fun.

Today, I (Will) went to the orthodontist and found out that I need to wear rubber bands for a bit longer then I will be able to get my braces off in about 3 weeks. Then, I will have to wear retainers for pretty much the rest of my life. Maybe I will post some pictures of my lovely teeth and orthodontial experience!

Ok, time for bed. We will try to get back on here sooner this time.

Our trip

In the first picture we were all swimming in our 1st hotel's pool. And in this picture I`m carrying Molly around the pool.
Keeping up with our workout program, even on the road
visit to the Bass Pro Shop/Outdoor World. When we were here Ethan and I bought a $25 bow and arrow!!! Dad paid for most of it though.
Here we are at the Fantastic Caverns... That`s my head in the middle

The picture right above here is one that I took on our way home yesterday...it is in St. Louis and it's the world famous Arch. The picture right above this one is of us in our second hotel...the first one we stayed in was nice, new and clean but it was kinda far from where Dad was working and the rooms were tiny. Dad found this older hotel closer to his job that had two levels in it...a loft up the stairs that had a bathroom and big bed...it had a kitchen, living room area and another sleeping/dining area with another bathroom. I think this is the only sane way for our family to travel in the future. It was really cool! And no one HAD to sleep on the floor.

So that is our trip to Springfield, Missouri. We had such a good time with our Dad. It was sad to leave him yesterday. But he's coming home tonight, for the weekend! Have a good weekend!
