Yesterday the weather was sooo nice! We started our day by going to our ward service project. After that we headed to Rita's for a free water ice (1st day of Spring every year they give away free water ices. Mmmmm). We will definitely miss water ice when we move. 
We got our food and ate a picnic at the park. The park was busy, but the weather was so nice that everyone there seemed to be in good spirits and the busyness wasn't a factor. We stayed until 5:30ish and then decided we needed to get the kids cleaned for church the next day and then to bed.
While the kids played, Colson slept.
We love daylight savings (longer days now) and we love 11am church. We actually have time to do things as a family after church now. the kids were being silly and trying on these costume glasses. I got a kick out of Garrett with them on.
In The Friend (a magazine our church puts out) they have a section called "Friends in the News". Maelie and Garrett like looking at the kids and asked why these kids get to be in the magazine. So we wrote a few things and took this picture to submit to The Friend. We'll see if it gets published. If not, here it is:
Sterling (2), Garrett (4), Maelie (6) and Colson (5 mo), Pennsylvania, love living in Philadelphia. They enjoy reading The Friend, going to church, and participating in Family Home Evening every Monday night. They like to drive to Washington DC to see the beautiful temple. Maelie and Garrett are trying to do missionary work by being good examples and inviting their friends to church. Sterling loves to sing songs in nursery. His favorite songs are "I am a child of God", "Twinkle, Twinkle Little star" and "Jesus wants me for a sunbeam".
