We've Got The Spirit! Yeah! Yeah!






Today Stella had her very first soccer game! She looked so adorable in her little uniform! Isn't that what it's all about anyways? We had a heck of a time trying to find the spot we were suppose to be at. There were three fields with so many different games going. We were a few minutes late, but finally found it. The coach let Stella join the game as soon as we got there. At first she just kind of stood there and looked around. The next time she was put in the coach let her kick the ball to start the game, so that was pretty exciting! She did that a few times and even kicked the ball once while running down the field! Half way thru the game she was given a dandelion and wouldn't put it down the rest of the time, so she is standing in the middle of the field smelling a weed instead of running with her team. Such a Stella thing to do! Our first practice was cancelled due to rain so she did surprisingly well for never playing soccer before. I am looking forward to watching her over the next couple of weeks! Go Stella!!! (The music I put with this post would be better if I could download the real action off my camcorder. Just use your imagination!)

Easter


We had a great time this weekend with our families! We dyed eggs Friday night together. Then on Saturday we headed down to Shaun and Mistee's for the day. We were there to celebrate Lukes 6th birthday, but had a little Easter egg hunt while the weather was decent. The kids all had fun looking for eggs and the older girls were helpful in making sure the little ones found their eggs first. Glenwood is always a nice little get-away! We all had fun playing games and pigging out. It's what us Robbins' love to do!


Sunday I awoke to Stella's huge eyes and excitement that the Easter Bunny had come and left a basket full of goodies! Tristan woke just a minute later so we were able to see what was left for them. After church we relaxed a bit before going to the Duffin's. There we did another egg hunt and ate some more. Yum! I love Easter time! It is a reminder that even though it had snowed last week, Spring is somewhere around the corner. Spring is the perfect time to remember the Savior and the whole reason behind Easter - the Atonement. We had a great weekend together and with everyone else! Happy Easter!

Miracles Never Cease To Happen

That's right everyone, we have finally joined the rest of society and got high speed internet! It only took two years of nagging Bill for him to finally cave. All it took to convince him was getting a new computer that he likes to play on. It's nice to get on, find what I need, and go about my day. So this is proof that miracles never cease to happen!
