Our next great adventure

We just found out some important and incredible news. We were very excited to learn that the Air Force will be be shipping us out to Germany! The AEGD program here ends in July, so we had been anxious to learn where we'd be headed next. We were hoping we would get something Europe-ish, and Germany was our top pick, so this is pretty exciting for our family. We will be near the border of France, Luxembourg and Belgium, Mark's uncle and his family live 2 hours away, Paris-4 hours away, Mark's sister and her husband will be in Hungary all of Fall. We are just so excited to get our travel on! If you were planning on visiting Europe you better do it in the next 3 years because you have a free place to stay at the Olsen home! We are definitely going to miss the good US of A but are super stoked for a big adventure before we settle down. Oh, Mark lived in Germany when he was 3. Sadie and London will also live in Germany when they are 3. I thought that was kind of neat.

Happy 6 months, Lundy!

6 months so soon?
Your laughs are outrageous.
Your sweetness contagious.
Your looks advantageous.
You keep us smiling for ages.
Thank you.

We love you Lundy Loo!

Easter time

More fur people...

I took the girls to this Easter village they had set up in town. Sadie LOVED the Easter bunny. First thing when we walked in she ran over to him. She always gets a little nervous when they hug or hold her but I still can't believe how brave she is with them. I swear she would run away with one of these guys if she could.

Sadie also loved the train ride around the shopping center and of course all the farm animals. She also got to do a little Easter craft and decorate a cookie. I love that she is old enough to get into the holiday stuff now.

So after the Easter village Sadie kept talking about the Easter bunny and how she wanted to go see him again. So the next day we headed over to Bass Pro shop for more Fur Fun.

This was Sadie's face when she saw the bunny...

She was so excited. She kept cutting in line to go see him. They had a little egg hunt but all she wanted to do was go see the bunny.

She is still talking about how she wants to go see the Easter bunny again. She also keeps telling me that it is almost Easter time. I don't have the heart to tell her it's over.

After we went and enjoyed this beautiful weather at the splash pad and play pad at the mall. Sadie was completely soaked in her beautiful dress by the time we left.

Easter egg dying fun... Messier than it should have been.

Just a little lick...

Easter was great! We had a lot of fun just lounging in our jammies watching General Conference all day. First thing the girls did when they found their baskets was break open the chocolate. Even London. Smart girl.

While watching conference Sadie kept pointing to Presedent Monson and saying "It's the prophet of the lord." As you can tell from this picture our children were very obedient and watched the whole thing and even took notes.

We had an Easter egg hunt for the girls in the back yard. Again, I love to see Sadie get into the fun holiday stuff. It really is my biggest joy to see my girls happy and and having fun. I love it!

I love my cute girls!
