Lots of fun!

We've been busy since Haakon was born so I wasn't able to post all of the Peterson happenings. Here are some pics of the other things we've been up to. Lots of babies have been born these past 3 months, so Haakon's been meeting lots of new friends and Mac and Brekk have had there fill of holding babies. :) To catch you up on everything: Brekk had his first haircut and looks like such a big boy, every nice day is spent outside playing...thank goodness for spring :), we spent a weekend at Heath and Loraine's house for Cooper's dedication, Haakon is such a smiley baby and "talks" all the time, we put in new carpet and a kitchen floor, lots of parties, and on a sad note...we sold one of our dogs.

Brekk and Mac after he had his big boy haircut.

Mackena and her friend Ellie wearing their matching "CHATTER BOX" shirts.

Ellie decided to dress Brekk up. :)

Haakon and Avalee meet! They were due on the same day but Haakon wanted out early. Avalee on the other hand waited and was born on her due date...March 4th.

Zeke is the one we sold but he went to an amazing new home! :)

EASTER!

As I promised weeks ago...here's our Easter update. We had a WONDERFUL Easter! Mackena sang and played the bells (or was supposed to but decided to just stand there instead) at church, Pastor Jay gave a great message reminding us why we celebrate Easter and to grow our relationship with Christ, there were a couple baptisms after the service which was amazing to be a part of, we came home and had a simple lunch, nap time, an Easter egg hunt outside, and then I made a nice Easter dinner (ham and all!). It was SO nice to not have to be running here and there...that gets tiring and it's not really "fun" for the kids either. It just gets to be lots of riding in a vehicle and not much time playing and having fun which is what they should get to do on a holiday. Easter Sunday was a very relaxing day as our own little family which was exactly what we needed! Here are some pics from our lovely day.
