Abby's Dance Recital

Abby had her dance recital this past Friday night. She was kinda nervous about being on stage, but she did great. We were very proud of her and she seemed to enjoy herself a lot! We'll see if she wants to continue dance class, she keeps telling us she wants to be on a swim team, so we're looking for that...

Much Love,

15 Months

Allison is 15 months old! She continues to be a happy, sweet girl. For these pictures we were pleasantly surprised that she sat down and smiled for the first picture, then she got up to look at it on the display. She didn't see to like it so she went back sat down and waited for us to take another picture. This repeated 4 times before she was satisfied! This kid knows what she wants!

Florida Trip!

This past week we took our annual trip to AMI, Florida. This time we rented a beach house with Kurt & Sarah. We were so excited to see Pop & Mumzie and spend some time with the kids at the beach. Abigail has been working on her swimming and she and Sally Kate finally mastered it during our trip! They were such good motivators for each other, the parents didn't have to do anything! We also headed to the aquarium. It was Allison's first time to really enjoy it. Her favorite part was the shark tank, she absolutely did not want to leave.

We also celebrated Sally Kate and Abby's upcoming birthdays on the last night we were there with cake and presents. We had a really great trip and enjoyed time with the family.

Leadership Fort Smith - Graduation

This past year Moises has been involved in a program called Leadership Fort Smith. The program selects approximately 30 members of the community to learn about all the sectors of the Fort Smith community and its operations.  It was a wonderful learning experience for Moises and very interesting meeting different members of the community. Last night the LFS class of 2016 was celebrated in a commencement ceremony. We had a great time and it was very special recognizing Moises for all his work over the last year.

Mother's Day 2016

What a wonderful mother's day this year! We got up early to head to church and then had a nice and relaxing breakfast. We went to visit BB and work in the garden in the afternoon. We had a hail storm here last week and it demolished the beautiful onions so we decided it was time to harvest those. They were very delicious, but none liked the onions better than Allison! She enjoyed gnawing on the bulb and swinging it around. It was a great mother's day! Happy mother's day to all the wonderful mother's in our life!

Much Love,

9th Annual D.C. Lind III Bug Boil

Saturday we drove up to Fayetteville for the 9th Annual Bug Boil. This was the first year that Abigail understood the meaning behind the bug boil and what it means to mommy. One night before bed time we told her we would be going to the bug boil and she began asking questions. Mommy still has a hard time talking about D.C. even after all these year so daddy explained who D.C. was and that this is a celebration of his life. She told mommy that she was so sad she never got to meet D.C., but that he is an angel now so we shouldn't be sad about that...tear jerker!!

Anyway, we headed up on Saturday morning and as soon as we got there we didn't see Abigail until we left! She found a group of kids and played all afternoon! The only picture we got of the girls together is as we were leaving and it's obvious neither one of them were happy about leaving! We had a great time and as usual enjoyed the food and good company. Allison particularly enjoyed the live band!

IC Carnival

Each year a school near our office holds a spring carnival, which includes food, games and bounce houses. We have not been in a couple years and decided it would be a fun Friday night for the girls. We arrived right as the carnival kicked off and the girls had a great time. Abby bounced in the bounce house and got her face painted and Allie enjoyed walking all over the carnival. They definitely did not want to leave!

Much Love,
