Easter 2008

Easter came and went in a hurry, but we were able to take some nice photographs to remember the day....everyone looked so wonderful the pictures turned out so nice....

Lukas goes to church!

Lukas wore this little outfit when he went to church for the first time last Sunday....he looks handsome! Obviously takes after his father......

Pictures of Leiya

Leiya wore this little ensemble to church....doesn't she look pretty?

Leiya LOVES to spend time with her little brother and it always ready to help out!

Leiya has now moved out and is living in her own house in the back yard....she pays mommy and daddy rent!

Sometimes, Leiya likes to sneak out of her room at bed time, as this surveillance photograph shows....
