Sarah applied for a new (another?) job this week at the little daycare/preschool on Main Street which she might be able to use for her new internship.  She continues to tell us that she is "so done with school!" but also continues to go, for which we are grateful.  I did order her graduation robes so we are getting close!  I also continue to pester her about applying for scholarships as is my motherly duty.

Megan ran an 800 in 2:42 at her meet on Friday which was her best time last year and she's already hit it this year!  She worked at Funfinity with Sarah on Saturday and continues to work hard and do great at school.  She loves her seminary teacher and had such a great lesson this week that she floated around the house all day and told us all how much she loved us.  It was pretty awesome!

Mariah ran a mile in 5:48 at the meet on Friday.  Wow!  She continues to work out with the basketball team on B days at school.  She is sick this weekend which isn't surprising since we've had a bug going through the family, and she pushes herself really hard!  She is working with a shooting coach that Kevin found for her and goes to the gym everyday after all her other practices to get some shots in.  She is enjoying it.  She also had a choir concert on Wednesday where she looked and sounded beautiful!

I got to go on a field trip with Cali and Cheyenne this week!  We went to the Clark Planetarium and it was really fun!  We learned constellations and the phases of the moon and all about space stations and shuttles and traveling to Mars!!  Cali and Chey also had their last two Bantam games for March league today.  They won both!  They (and their dad) were very pleased!  They were also both awarded their Faith in God awards for primary in sacrament meeting today.  They worked hard to make sure they could get it done.

 

 

 

Bethany is getting ready for a talent show at school next week.  She's going to play piano even though her teacher is out recovering from having a baby.  Beth continues to play with her friends everyday and be sweet and talkative.  We love her!

Benjamin has started putting words together in his reading MUCH better!  He even likes to label his drawings now with words he sounds out.  AND he can count to 100.  Looks like Kindergarten is doing its job well!

We have been talking about the last week of Jesus's life this week.  On Saturday, we colored eggs!  We needed to do it early in the morning before everyone went different ways and Dad made us a big breakfast.  It was tons of fun!

 

Today, on Sunday, we all wore our matching skirts that Sarah made for us for Christmas.  We even found Ben a matching green sweater!  We had a great Sacrament meeting that included a farewell talk from Faith Atkinson who leaves on her mission this month and songs from the primary and the ward choir.  I also got called as Relief Society President!  Tonight we'll go to Grandma and Grandpa Gazdik's for Easter dinner.  We're so grateful that we know of the love of Christ and can celebrate on this holiest of days!

Happy Easter!  The tomb is empty!  He is risen!
