Easter

Easter was so fun this year! First, we went to Julia's first birthday party on Saturday. It was so fun! It was for her friend Miles who was turning two. They had an Easter egg hunt set up for the kids and they had so much fun!
Julia filled her bucket with eggs, and then emptied them into this little boys bucket so she had room for more. It took her a while to figure out there was fun toys and yummy treats inside the eggs.
Easter morning. We had to wake her up since we have church at 8:00. That's why she looks so sleepy.

My Grandma and Grandpa Larson (Grandma Larson aka Julia Larson, who Julia is named after) It was so nice b/c they came over for lunch after church, and then we were able to spend the afternoon with them. My Grandpa told stories of when he was in the Marines. It was very interesting. He's such a fun storyteller. Plus I love spending time with them. They're so fun!
All of us in our Easter best! (really only Julia, I'm pretty sure I've had that skirt for like 6 years)

I hope every one else had an awesome Easter! I want you all to know how thankful I am for Jesus Christ and the sacrafice he made for all of us!

Another Triathlon!

Ok, so I'm a little behind on my postings. Last Saturday I completed another triathlon! It was so much fun! I didn't really train for it b/c it was kinda last minute, but I'm so glad I did it! My friend Taya had invited me to do it with her and it was her first one. She did so awesome! I also wanted to give a shout out to my friend Josh who came to watch, and ended up watching Julia :) Thanks, bro, I know you don't like so much one on one with the kiddies, but you did a great job!

Also, Nathan comes home today! Yeaa!
