The saga continues






Easter was wonderful. My mom was here and got to participate in our tradition of breaking confetti stuffed eggs over eachother's heads. The Bowers joined in our holiday fun. We got out the blower to clean all the confetti and eggshells off ourselves when we discovered that Kona the killer dog had a strong desire to kill the blower. See top picture.

Still more photos

Jackie lost her first tooth. It was not by the conventional means. Anja and Jackie were doing gymnastics in my living room.(imagine that!) Jackie wanted to "spot" Anja in something Anja can already do. When Anja kicked over out of her bridge her knee smacked Jackie in the mouth. Jackie grabbed her mouth after I heard the all to famous sucking noise a tooth makes when it comes out. We found her tooth on the floor. Her other tooth was separated from it's root but hasn't fallen out yet. The dentist says it's only a matter of time. He also said she will be toothless for atleast 2 years. It's always exciting in the Tschohl home. Mind you, this happened the day after my mom arrived.



Jackie and Anja did a performance at the nursing home with their bible study on Good Friday. They did a hula and sang and danced to several other songs. The sad thing for us is that their gymnastics schedule changed and they will no longer be able to attend this bible study. I am super sad about this because it has been good bible education for them as well as a time for crafts and songs and dance.


I finally learned how to download photos


Meemaw came to visit. We bought her a Boston Cream Pie. She had been wanting one of these for quite some time. No one was able to locate one anywhere until...she came to Hawaii. Lucky for us they sell them at Napolean's Bakery located in every Zippy's restraunt. We celebrated her birthday as soon as we got her home from the airport.





Before Meemaw's visit, Pappy was here. The kids love for him to hide Plastic Easter Eggs. He never seems to tire from hiding them no matter how many times they beg him to do it again.



Soccer season ended with another broken bone for Anja. Therefore there is only a picture of Jackie playing her last game. I forgot to take one of Anja on crutches. She is off from gymnastics for another month. She and Jackie went to the water park with Pete for their birthday present. They weren't there for an hour before going down a family slide all together. Anja's foot went under Pete's bottom and when they went into the water Pete crushed her foot underneath him. They even put in her medical chart that her foot was smashed between her dad's but (yes it did say but) and the bottom of the pool. Funny huh? Luckily they gave them a rain check. Maybe it won't be so dangerous next time.



The kids all went to the ice skating rink for a birthday party. They all loved it but I think it was the most fun for Jacob. Now he want to play hockey.
