Easter

Another year egg hunting. We decided to hide them on a Saturday because the weather was so nice. Easter celebration was meaningful with a nice breakfast before the service.

Bubbles!

Todd wanted to do something fun with the girls one evening so he found a way to make a simple bubble wand with yarn and sticks. The bubbles created were huge! The girls had lots of fun trying to pop them before they popped on their own :)

Butterflies

For our homeschooling unit we grew and studied five Painted Lady butterflies. Ada waited patiently for the caterpillars to change into chrysalides and then finally emerge as butterflies. We enjoyed them indoors for a couple days then set them free. The first one fluttered quickly out of the habitat and away but Ada was able to gently handle the remaining butterflies.

Lots of Ada close-ups and a few iris photos thrown in :)
