Happenings in Denton



Nathan had district science fair on April 10th. He went and talked with the judges and then the UNT physics team came in and did an awesome presentation for the kids. I was amazed by everything they did. Nathan didn't win, but he did get a pretty big ribbon for making it to district level.
We had a pretty good Easter weekend. On Saturday we dyed eggs. Then later the Easter Bunny came and hid them in our backyard along with some other goodies. Allison and Justin came over with their boys and everyone had fun searching the yard for eggs. Amy and Hyrum were so excited to see the eggs outside of the kids' bedroom window that they climbed out of the window and started grabbing the treats they saw.

Lucy was so excited about the eggs and candy she found. She would get so excited about one thing that she would forget to keep looking through the yard to find more.

Nathan did a great job finding things and letting the littler kids find the easy items. He was happy with his findings.





These were some of the eggs we dyed. Everyone was impressed with Amy's egg (the one in the middle). I am not sure how she made it look that way, but it was really awesome. It looked like a marble egg.





Everyone dying eggs.




During Spring Break, we were not able to go camping. The kids were a bit sad, so Steve set up the tent in their room and let them have a slumber party in there. They had the portable DVD player in there, along with popcorn, and games. I think they may have liked it better than when we actually go camping-- there were no complaints about being too cold.

That's fun! Maybe we'll have to try the tent thing. It still isn't warm enough for us to go, and i'm getting cabin fever. :)

Good for him for doing such a great job!
