Grandma and Grandpa Larsen are here!!!

Grandma and Grandpa arrived last Thursday night and we are having a great time with them! Andy's keeping Glenn busy helping him build a new dinner table for us, and the kids are keeping both grandparents busy by playing with them and reading to them! Here's a few pictures.....

Sunday fun

On Sunday the kids spent most of the day with A-Ba and A-Mei. They went for a hike with them (and our other friend/neighbor, Amy) after church, and then we went to the ocean with them in the evening. It was a fun Sunday!

School pictures

In July Ike will graduate from Kindergarten. In this culture this is a BIG deal, so they start to prepare for it early. Last week they took their first pictures and even got Ellie dressed up for some of the shots even though she is only in her first year of preschool. Here are a few of the pictures they took (the kids are going to kill me for putting these on the blog when they are older).

Happy Easter!!

We hope that each one of you had a blessed Resurrection Sunday! We started our day at church and I decided that it doesn't matter what language you hear it in, there is joy and hope in the words, "Hallelujah, Zha-su fok faht"..."Hallelujah, Jesus is Risen!"

Here are some pictures from our Easter week....
