Smith Family: Spring Break

We officially kicked off spring break Friday. Anna celebrated with pig tails that morning.

David took a long nap after he piled his stuffed animals up in one corner of the bed.

Singing to Anna before bed.

David is all about helping Cameron with anything he's doing these days. He is his little shadow again. I have been repainting the kids bedroom furniture so he helped Cameron move it to the garage for me.

So glad Daddy is finally home!!

Soccer practice

After school on Thursday, the kids all went to the dentist. This was Anna's first time and she did wonderful! The dentist here is amazing with kids. She sang to Anna while she brushed her teeth. Anna loved every minute of it and is asking to back. The dentist had given us some tools to bring home and practice with Anna to make her more comfortable. The tools totally helped ease her into it and the kids all had fun playing dentist together.

We went to a Going Away Party at a park for one of Presley's friends from school. Anna loves playing with her classmate, Heidi. She is so sweet to Anna and always plays with her.

We went to dinner one night with friends while the guys were out.

David helped hide eggs before Presley's school egg hunt. He loved it! He ran all over the field trying to hide them in the grass.

The dentist

I was so proud of all three of them!! They all did so well and were so grown up.

She kept wanting to play dentist that night.

The Easter event on post.

I was shocked Anna took a picture with the bunny. David wanted no part in it.

We met Cameron at the trailer for a potluck dinner and Anna didn't let him out of her sight.

The next day we had Presley's birthday party at the house with all her friends. She wanted a My Little Pony Rainbow Rock party. The girls painted canvases, decorated hats and microphones, ate some food and cookie cake and played pin the tail on Pinkie Pie. It was a great afternoon!!

David was so sweet at the party. He wanted to help set up everything, pass out all the favors, and took care of Anna. He is such a sweet boy, makes me so proud.

Getting Pony tattoos

Samantha brought the kids Easter gifts.

All the girls painting.

Opening presents. She got so many great presents that she loved. We are so glad we found so many great friends here who came out to celebrate with us.

Opening all her presents that afternoon. She loved all of them!

Love her cake!

The next day was Easter Sunday. The kids were so excited for the bunny to come. The night before Easter I was asking them if they knew the real reason we celebrate. Presley nailed it- she knew it was the day he rose from the dead. David said it's because Jesus' heart hurt and he had to go to Heaven for his dad to fix it. They loved their baskets and we had a fun morning just hanging out before church. We went to church then came home and hung out for a bit before going to a friends' house for dinner.

David has been talking about a nerf gun since Christmas. He loved the one the bunny brought him. Presley got some new sticker earrings and a new palace pet.
