We said goodbye to 545 Indian Creek Drive this past weekend. It was bittersweet. While we are ready for a bigger house and want to settle into the community where we want our kids to grow up, we were sentimental about leaving the house where we had made so many special memories. The girls came over for one last indoor picnic after everything was moved out.
It was a long month of packing. I think Brent and I were relieved this part of the move was behind us. We were emotional the last day, reminiscing about all the renovations we had made and bringing home Abby and Caroline when they were born. It was a fast seven years! Seems like we moved in yesterday.
I am happy to report we are settled in at our temporary housing (Thanks, Nonnie, Pops and Little Bubba!) and we are anxiously waiting for that house with the Anderson name on it to pop up on the market!

Andrews' Annual Easter Egg Hunt
Presley and Dylan Andrews are the same age as Abby and Caroline. We went to their annual Easter Egg hunt last Sunday afternoon.
Jumping in the Bounce HouseCaroline really liked this little playhouse.
Abby did more jumping at this party than she has in her whole life.
Caroline and Dylan eating a snack.
Abby finally took a break from all that jumping to eat.
The Hunt
Palm Sunday
Another attempt at pictures in front of the flowers at church.
The girls were so excited all morning to see the animals walk into the sanctuary at our Palm Sunday service. It took a lot of patience. They didn't come in until after the sermon and Caroline fell asleep waiting.
They were both really good during the service and we woke Caroline when the procession began.We saw the animals close up after the service.
The church served a delicious brunch after the service. It was a neat morning.

Easter "Eggstravaganza"
This Saturday, our church had an Easter "Eggstravaganza." It started with an egg hunt.
Caroline met the brother of Abby's best little friend at school.
Hunting for Eggs
Daddy and Abby race off to find another spot.
The girls would not cooperate for a picture in front of these gorgeous flowers.
Craft Time
Everyone had to help with this project.
Lots of fun little games were set up everywhere. The girls loved picking out their prizes.
A Strike!

Krogering
These days, our favorite grocery store is Kroger. It has little carts for Abby and Caroline drives the car. Everyone participates.
We usuallly make a list together, which Abby takes in a little purse. She is very interested in writing and is serious about getting every item on her list. She doesn't need much help and can identify the brands we buy.
Caroline stays busy navigating our way down the aisles and is happy to hold any item her sister allows her to hold.
Nonnie and Momo were with us on this trip, so she had some time shopping with the little cart.
The highlight of our grocery shopping is the self check station. Abby scans almost every item. She locates the barcode, scans the food and bags it. It won't belong until I can just drop her off to get our groceries.
