Ta da!!!

This is just a phone pic, but I'm sharing it so my mom can see.  Our sweet H won first place at the jazz piano competition last week.  She was so excited.  She said, "This is the first trophy I've ever had in my WHOLE ENTIRE LIFE!"  Congratulations H!  And thank you for all your hard work!  It really paid off!

Rear view...

And Jenny wanted some pictures from behind so they could show off their french braids.  Ha!

Close up...

Yes, those are cupcakes on their dresses even tho' they're for Easter.  lol.  We usually try to avoid anything too specific for the holiday so they can wear them all summer.

Moods...

It always surprises me how quickly their expressions can change.  Love them so much.

Sisters and Secrets...

I always love to do this...ask one to tell a secret.  It's just a fun way to observe some sweet sister moments. 

Hawk at the college....

As we were wandering the college looking for good spots for Easter pics, Kara spotted this hawk in the distance.  As often as I've been to Richland, I have NEVER seen a hawk.  What a beauty.  Kara and I tried to walk around behind him to get a show from a different angle and he swiveled his head around to watch us (almost like an owl).  Amazing...and a little scary.  He even took off in flight for a minute, but circled back around to stand guard in the same stairwell.  Beautiful creature!

Sweetness...

After mini-golf and planting their gardens, we headed to the college to take a few shots in their Easter dresses.  So sweet.
