I wish it was spring! Since it's not, I'm consoling myself by wearing lots of pink. It's my favorite happy color. I love yellow and tangerine too, but I can't pull that off... In honor of spring I made my first craft from pinterest. Or actually my first craft in years! I'm not that crafty but this looked so easy and festive that I actually went and bought the supplies at Walmart and made it the same day. I am quite proud of myself. Hopefully it will last out the month. When I warned the kids that the Easter Bunny would not bring them any candy if they picked at my centerpiece, Bethany in exasperation said, "Mom you have no control over the Easter Bunny!" To which Carter replied that moms have connections...
It was spirit week at Bethany's school last week. Bethany got to dress up in some way every day. It was a dream come true for her! Cowboy/cowgirl day was her favorite. She was so cute and confident. She had her outfit planned days ahead of time and wore it all weekend. On Sunday when I reminded her to get dressed for Church she announced, "I will, but not until right before, because I look sooo cute!" On Wednesday Bethany got to dress up as her favorite character from a book. She choose to dress up in our egyptian princess costume because to paraphrase Bethany, "Surely there is a book about Cleopatra somewhere." We love that Bethany enjoys dressing up, she is full of fun and sparkle!
