We hope that everyone had a joyous Easter celebrating the resurrection of our Savior. We began our Easter by meeting with our ABF class at church and then we had an amazing time of worship. I am so thankful for and so undeserving of Christ's death and resurrection. As we were teaching Julianne why we celebrate Easter, she started saying "Jees Alie" (Jesus Alive). Her language development has really taken off the last several weeks and she is now starting to use several words together and even sentences. After church we came home and attempted to take some pictures of Julianne in her Easter dress. I've included the best ones, but she was not interested in posing or staying still. Our good friends, Lee and Charity (or "Dee" and "Chuh-Chuh" as Julianne calls them), came over for lunch and we ate until we were stuffed. We played a new, fun card game called Rage and just hung out for the rest of the afternoon. After they went home Stephen, Julianne, and I went on a walk and as we were coming home a sweet little puppy trotted over to us to greet Abby. The puppy didn't have any tags and after taking him around our neighborhood to see if anyone was looking for him, we took him home to decide what to do with him. Julianne and the neighborhood kids played and played with him. One of our neighbors knew of someone who had a farm and might want a dog, so after several phone calls the puppy, who we named Larry, found a good home. It was a fun day!

Still on the move


There was a moving truck in her line of vision so she had no interest in looking at the camera

The hat was not original to the outfit, but matches pretty well (she picked it out herself)
