Hi,
Happy Easter to everyone. We had a pretty nice day - the bunny was here to hide a few eggs, drop off some candy and give Hans a PowerRangers T Shirt and Elle a swim suit. Then Elle and I went to church (we still leave Hans at home with daddy when we go...) I'm trying some French recipes for dinner tonight - Chicken with 40 cloves of garlic!, a potato casserole, and made my Grandma Tynne's Pineapple Jello Salad. We actually couldn't bring ourselves to put in the entire cup of mayonaise and heavy whipping cream it called for. I have a feeling it'll be almost as tasty though!
For a little more spring break fun we went to the Houston Aeros game on Friday night. It was a first for all of us but Kev - (Aunt Holly used to take him to the Seattle Thunderbirds, I guess). It was tons of fun. Hans made it through the entire game.
Here are a few Easter Pictures. I tried to get one of Kevin and Hans, but we didn't get a good one, so I'll have to snap one of those later.
Hope your Holiday is happy!
Hans continues to chug along with his Accutane. We've been cleaning up the back yard this weekend, but I had to cut it short yesterday and just bring him in. It was kinda warm, and Hans was getting blotchy red rash spots all over his face. Last night he also said that his arm hurt, but he did manage to sleep okay. Bone pain is listed as one of the top ten side effects of Accutane. Poor little dude - it's nasty stuff. We're just praying that it does its job and keeps relapse away!
Oh - if you're in the mood to buy some really neat original art, or prints, please check out this website www.noelledass.com. My friend Shelley forwarded it to me. Her friend Noelle does animal prints and she gives 15% to the charity of your choice - so buy some art and select Lunch for Life! The artwork is really fun and precious!
Finally - our one and only babysitter and future pediatric Oncologist, Courtney Sweebe, chopped of her goldilocks for Locks of Love this week. I tried to get her to make me a wig of that pretty hair, but I think she thought I was kidding;) This is one sweet kid! Thanks Courtney - Pictures above..
Catch ya later -

Thanks for mentioning Noelle's site. She's an incredible artist, and an even better person, and friend!
Elle and Hans both look so sweet - and ready for candy. Hope your Easter was great.
Love Shelley
Hi! Lara, I hope that root canal was a once in a lifetime experience! The kids look so good! they bring a big smile to our faces. I haven't been on line much lately so, it is good to see your photos. We continue to pray for your family and we are so happy Hans' treatment is going well. Love to all, Cindy
