This is the weather report for Rigby, Idaho on April 8.
And this is the weather report for today at Virginia Beach (we spent the day there). Big difference! It's gonna be a HOT summer!
Here's some pictures of our too-short spring. Did I mention we were sick the last 2 weeks? :(
We painted fingernails on a shut-in-sick day.
I tried so hard to talk Oaklie into a different paint color but she was insistent. I think it looks like she has a nail infection!
Our ward put on an awesome Easter Egg hunt.
Oaklie started throwing up the night before Easter and didn't start feeling better until Wednesday, so it was a pretty chill holiday. We were supposed to have some friends over but we had to quarantine ourselves :(
Our Easter baskets are in storage but the hats worked!
Carissa
Dallas
There was a conversation about this about a week before Easter at our house.
Me: What do you want for Easter?
Dallas: Nothing
Me: Ok, what do you need for Easter? Like church clothes or shoes or something?
Dallas: I don't need anything.
Carissa: You don't even need, like....a belt or something?
Dallas: I could use a belt.
Oaklie had a sad Easter with a sick belly. She cried when I told her she couldn't go to nursery in her new dress. It was so sad.
She tried on her skirt for a minute to take a picture. These guys are big fans of their lambs.
This is picture retake about a week later. Don't worry, the outfits were washed between.
April is Month of the Military Child. They had a carnival on Fort Lee in honor of our military kids and everything was free! Some things I really love about being an Army family.

Dallas had to work at this event, but he took just long enough of a break to get the girls some cotton candy. I love a little girl and her dad!
Our girls are getting so big!
Speaking of Month of the Military Child, an article I wrote about our military kids was featured on Military.com's sister site, "SpouseBuzz". You can check it out here.
We've been riding out bikes a lot. These guys are little speed demons.
I got my haircut the other day. I'm trying to take pictures of my hair as it grows out. The plan is to compile them into one shot of my hair growing back.
Dallas left Sunday morning for field training and was supposed to be gone until Thursday, but got back and surprised us on Tuesday. The first thing Amaya and Oaklie wanted to do when he left was make a calendar. When he got home, Amaya got the calendar down and crossed off the rest of the days.
We took a little trip to Virginia Beach today with some friends and soaked up some sun. When I told Amaya we were going to swim in the ocean she said, "When I move to Kentucky and make new friends I am going to tell my friends, 'Hi, my name is Amaya and guess what? One time I swimmed in the ocean.'"
Oaklie picked out her swimsuit at the store yesterday and it is so her!
There was a nice little playground by the beach.
Oaklie said, "I need to work out," and then just started doing push-ups. She didn't learn that from me!
This picture is for Dad. Originally we planned this trip to keep us busy until Dallas got back in town. When he got home early, I was going to stay home and hang out with him, but he told us we should still go. He works so hard for our family! I'm spoiled that I get to stay home every day with our little munchkins!
The whole group. All of our husbands are here for BOLC (different classes).
Amaya took this picture!
This is kind of a random end to the post but Dallas found a frog outside our front door. He wouldn't let me throw it in the fish tank and watch it and our Beta Fish fight to the death.
Aren't I a lucky lady to be married to this good looking man?
Nobody in our house wanted to give him a kiss. He's hanging out in our bushes in case someone changes their mind.
