Camera is missing....

So we can't find the camera to save our lives.  So, we have no pictures to share = LAME!!!  

Since our last post we have started  T-ball, Chris and Beki are coaching, Owen is attempting to play and not whine.  Chris finished his class to renew his teaching licence (YEAH!!!!!) and so Tuesdays don't suck as bad as they used to.  Beki just keeps plugging along at the research thing, not much head way being made.  We are keeping quite busy between the three of us.  Owen had his first t-ball game on Saturday and we don't have any pictures of it at all because Chris and Beki are both on the field coaching.  Hopefully we can con a parent into taking some pictures next time.  Owen has really taken to t-ball this year and he is getting quite good a catching, throwing, and batting - but he is still a silly 6-year-old and can drive us crazy when he wants to.  Hopefully we will find the camera this week and we can share the few photos we have managed to take.

Park Outings

During spring break we took some time to visit some parks and enjoy the weather.  






The day after Easter we found a LEGO Chima set on sale and Owen bought it for $1 - he put it together himself!!!!

We also did some kite flying.

A Day at Gettysburg

We have wanted to go to Gettysburg since we moved here.  Finally we made the trip.  Owen was a real trooper and didn't whine at all the whole time.  We did the audio driving tour = FANTASTIC.  Chris had plenty of time to geek out over lots of things.  It was a great day.

Visitor Center and Museum.





It was a blustery day....









Coolest memorial at the site.








We climbed all over rocks at Devil's Den and even used one as a slide.

Original cannon ball hole in the side of the barn from the battle.



Hiding from the Confederates behind the stone wall at "the angle".

We at a the Dobbin House - a really old house in Gettysburg that was converted to a restaurant. 




It was a great outing and we had a wonderful time.

EASTER

Easter fell during Spring Break and there were lost of festivities.  We had our 4th Annual Renberg Easter Egg Extravaganza and had over a few families to hunt eggs and have dinner.  Bellow is a barrage of pictures from the whole weekend.













Easter Sunday morning and the boy's Easter basket!

 





New Easter threads.

Epic game of Pokemon after church with his new cards.

It was a good weekend.  We enjoyed having good friends over and spending time together as a family.
