Ally worked on some tongue twisters while doing an art project at our kitchen table (lest you think she always wears a smock while at home). She got the hang of them quickly.
We celebrated the first day of spring with popsicles. March 20th proved to be a warm and sunny day, unlike the rest of the past 90 days. Hopefully spring will come and choose to stay really soon, because I'm tired of having the heater kick on. This is not the North Carolina weather I remember from years past.
Our dear friend Taunja visited, so we took to her to play at City Lake Park in Jamestown. We unknowingly arrived while they were having their annual egg hunt, so the big playground was overrun with children. We made our way to the smaller playground at the back and had it mostly to ourselves. Chris isn't in any of these pics, but he accompanied us on the adventure.
Ally and Cora pretended to go on a seafaring adventure and then ran a few races around and through the play structure. Ally also flipped up-side-down while Cora did what she does best-- eat snacks.
Before she left, Aunt T gave each of the girls a prize from her Primary bag. We can't wait for her to return again. I can always use an excuse to devour more bacon cheese fries from Ham's.
Chris and the girls dyed eggs. They used crayons and a glitter kit with marginal results.
The Easter Bunny came on Sunday morning and filled our baskets. The girls wore their fancy fuchsia dresses to church (more pics in a previous post). Then we drove out to Selma for Easter dinner with Chris' family at Aunt Sarah's house. Ally, Cora, and I moved into Grammy and Grampy's house for a few days to have some spring break fun while Chris returned home to work (more on those adventures in an upcoming post).
Grammy was kind enough to spoil her grand- daughters with more Easter goodies just before bed on that last night in March. Then we tucked them in. When they awoke,
it was April.
