Spring Activities

Well, I haven't posted anything in quite some time so here are some pictures of our recent spring activities.

Everyone dressed up for church on Easter Sunday.



Good stuff from the Easter Bunny:



Grandma Brooks came to visit. She made bunny cake with the girls which is always a much anticipated Easter activity. She seemed not too frazzled with 7 girls around so we figure we'll see how she can handle 10 next time.



Softball season began. Kimmy tried her hand at catcher (aka the girl who gets hit a lot by the pitcher and doesn't really catch anything).



Leah preffered to catch some rays next to the field:



Kimmy and her friend Makena getting ready for the big day:



Kimmy also decided she was going to try a kids triathalon (75 yard swim, 1 mile bike ride and half mile swim). They wore timnig chips and everything so it was very serious. Kimmy was quite nervous. Here she is before the start at the pool. I think all 7-10 year olds have the same nervous finger biting habit before a big event.




















She made it out of the pool and is getting on her bike. Still looking pretty good.
















Rounding the final corner from the run. She was getting pretty tired at this point but she ran all the way through the finish and did a good job. We'll be in Hawaii next year for the ironman I'm sure.

One last funny picture. Kimmy felt the need to try curlers. Of course this lasted only until she put her head on the pillow and realized that it might not be entirely comfortable to sleep in.
