One thing I sure do like about on-post living is the plethora of free family activities. On March 20th Monika and I took the kids to Fort Carson's Easter "EGG-stravaganza". Lots of free toys and candy for the kids. Malia even won a goldfish! Unfortunately, the fish only made it a few days.
Abram and Ethan rode in the double stroller most of the time. There were so many people that it was much easier that way...

The girls got to search through Easter eggs, decorate cookies, make princess crowns, go fishing for stuffed animals, and talk to the Easter Bunny.
Here is Malia and Kaela decorating cookies...

The girls feasting on their candy bracelets...

We had actually already left the event, when the girls reminded us that they didn't get their faces painted. I took the boys home and Monika took the girls back for the face painting. Supposedly Malia's is supposed to be a purple bunny...

The girls were pretty pleased with their face art...

It was a fun event for the kids. And as an added bonus, I stopped into housing last Friday and they were having an Easter event! Malia and Abram got pictures with the Easter Bunny (supposedly being emailed to me), went on an Easter egg hunt, and won Easter baskets!
And as far as housing goes.... we are in! I now officially have a house on post. The Elder's Quorum is going to help me move our things from storage on Monday. Works out perfectly, since Monika and I already have plans for this Easter weekend with the kids. I'm SO excited to getting our home set back up. Just one step closer to David coming home!
