I smocked Rachel's Easter dress. I have to say, this once was actually easier to work on than the Christmas dress. It must just be from practice because it seems like the pattern was more difficult. Anyway, I was very pleased with how it turned out. 
We went to Olivia's first soccer game. They didn't win but it was a close game. Olivia did a great job!
We went to Lisa's son's birthday party. Jaxson turned two! He's such a little miracle. Lisa made his cake and did a wonderful job. There's a story behind this last picture of Rachel. If you'll see all that's on her plate at a birthday party is broccoli. A few years ago we were at a chinese restaurant and everyone was getting ice cream after we had our meal. We asked Rachel if she wanted some and she replied with "No, I'll have more broccoli." She does not like cake or ice cream so she had broccoli at the party. I did, however, get some strange looks from other mothers. They probably thought I was a terrible mother for making my child eat broccoli at a birthday party while I had a big piece of cake and ice cream on my plate.

We went to Gatlinburg last week for about a week and stayed with my parents, along with my grandparents. It rained the whole way up there and the first two days but after that we had nice weather and had a great time. Anytime we left the cabin to go do things, Rachel would say "I want to go back to Gatlinburg" We would tell her we were in Gatlinburg and she would say "no, Gatlinburg with the hot tub" She loved the hot tub! She also became very comfortable there telling us all the things she had there in "her room". We had a great time with everyone. Thanks Mama & Daddy for letting us "crash" your vacation!
Today we went to visit Madelyn and her new baby sister, Aida. We took them to the park and had a great time. After we got back, they played dress up and with baby dolls. 
Rachel told me several months ago that when it snows here, she wants to make a snow angel. I said ok while thinking in my mind that it could be a long time or she may never see enough snow to make a snow angel. Well, who would have thought that on Saturday we had tornado warnings and on Sunday, it snowed! We didnt go out until mid morning and it had already started melting. She did, however, have enough snow to make a snow angel.

The youth at our church competed in the Regional Fine Arts Competition for the Assemblies of God. Fine Arts was held in Montgomery this year. We drove down for the day and watched all of the competitions. Aaron, my brother, competed in large human video, small human video, and praise and worship (he plays the drums). Some of the other youth competed in solo ensembles and wind/brass instrument.
