Sunday, March 31, 2013. Easter Sunday, March 31. When we got home the kids were excited to find that the Easter Bunny had come while we were gone. He always brings our baskets the day before Easter at our house, so we can think about Jesus and more spiritual things on Easter. Zach loves to have his picture taken lately, can you tell?

Texas Strongs: Piano Lessons
http://texasstrongs.blogspot.com/2013/10/piano-lessons.html
Tuesday, October 22, 2013. We decided to start Savannah in formal piano lessons mid-September. She is taking from a friend of mine, Sara Millett, and loving it so far. She had her first piano party, which was a Halloween theme. She LOVED playing her song for the other kids and playing music games. I'm really happy we decided to have her take lessons from someone other than me, because she is progressing so much faster. Posted by Strong Family -.

Texas Strongs: Grandma's Birthday
http://texasstrongs.blogspot.com/2013/10/grandmas-birthday.html
Saturday, October 19, 2013. We spent the weekend relaxing and celebrating Grandma's birthday. It was fun to have my mom here actually on her birthday and spend time with her. Landon was excited about the Wall-E bedspread I found for him at a yard sale. All the kids' favorite spot on the couch is right next to (or on top of) Grandma and Grandpa. The "men" watching a ball game or something. UNO and reading books. We love you Grandma! Posted by Strong Family -. THANK YOU for the wonderful birthday! 8/21/13 ...

Texas Strongs: Ice Skating
http://texasstrongs.blogspot.com/2013/10/ice-skating.html
Saturday, October 12, 2013. Connor was invited to a birthday party at the ice skating rink. None of my kids had ever been before, so I decided to take them all (except Landon) and pay to do the free skate while he was participating in the party. My awesome friend Jessica (birthday girl's mom) called to say that there was plenty of room available in the party lessons, so all of my kids got a lesson as well. The sweet birthday girl. Zach stayed near the railing the whole day, but after 3 hours he still did...
