Spring '09

I can't believe Easter has already come and gone! We've had a busy couple months. The girls and I flew up to CT to surprise my dad for his birthday. He had no idea we were coming, so it truly was a great surprise. We had a great time with family, but mostly with nana and papa-the girls just can't get enough of them! (Which is great for me, because I always get a nice break when they're around)

Once back from CT we headed to the beach for our friend Lilly's 1st birthday. Becky put on a great party, so great we ended up deciding to spend the night, even though we didn't plan to! The toddler bounce house was a hit with the girls-especially Ella, she loved it! That Sunday we all went to the aquarium, which was a great experience for all! According to Grace her favorite things were the turtles and the fish.

Easter weekend was nice. Nate was able to take Saturday off from work, so we spent the whole weekend together as a family.
I read Grace the story of Jesus in the garden, on the cross, and his ressurection from her children's Bible-kind of a lot for a two year old to take in, but she sat and listened. When Gavin came over Saturday night to babysit, she got her Bible out, climbed up on his lap, and proceeded to tell him the whole story-at least from her perspective! Amazing.
On Sunday the four of us and Gav went to our good friends the Pease's for dinner and an Easter egg hunt! It was nice to have a big dinner and relax with friends.
