The kids riding their scooters to church on Easter!


We had a big easter egg hunt at the Lakso's with the Jambors. There was 1 special egg that contained a ticket for a big prize. Aidan found it and won this chocolate bunny. He carried that box around all day long!



Aidan went to his first twins game with Kevin last weekend. A friend gave us the shirt and he got the Joe Mauer sideburns and bobble head at the game. It was a night to remember!

Thought it was time for an update! We managed to keep plenty busy during the winter with fun activities and are now beginning to enjoy the nice weather. Aidan finished soccer in February and Alaina started shortly after. What a difference in the age groups! Alaina and her teammates seem to get the gist of soccer and stuck with the game for the duration of the class. She will be starting T-Ball this week and is very excited.
Alaina had her birthday at Pump It Up in March and invited all of the kids in her class plus her cousins and some family friends for a total of 24 kids! It went well and she had a lot fun.
We drove to KS during spring break and had fun visiting my dad and Elaine. The kids just love playing in their big back yard and even warmed up to their dog, Pearl, on the last day. They graciously sent Pearl to "camp" for most of our stay since Alaina and Aidan are so afraid of dogs, cats, farm animals...you get the idea. Although this week they have had several interactions with dogs and while they are a little jumpy A/A enjoyed petting the dogs and letting the dogs lick them.
We are getting ready for the MS walk this weekend and will be joined by Kevin's family and some friends. The kids had a lot fun last year riding the light rail to Minnehaha Falls, going for the walk, and eating the free snacks afterwards. It will be a yearly tradition to help raise money for the MS society which has been a great resource for to learn more about MS and find treatments that may help Kevin improve.
Love you all,
Sara
