GG is 94


Our amazing Grandma had quite the birthday celebration this year.  We are so thankful for all that she has done for us over the years that we wanted to take some time out of our busy lives to celebrate her.  Nicole and Victoria flew in for the long weekend to surprise GG...
GG was very surprised when her grandchildren and great grandchildren began coming in to tell her happy birthday.

 Grayson loves his GG...

He especially loved helping her blow out the candles...
We squeezed fresh lemons to make these amazing blueberry lemon mimosas...
The boys were wild and rowdy...


And Victoria was as sweet as can be...
We loved our visit and having most of our family under one roof for a couple of days.  And we loved celebrating one of the special people on earth Maxine, our GG.

Easter 2016

I have been a very bad blogger this winter, I promise I am not giving up on it entirely.  Now that Owen doesn't nap, it is really cutting into my productive alone time.  I will update you all with some pictures and a recap of our chilly winter but first I am going to blog about our Easter.
This year we had several fun Easter egg hunts prior to the actual Easter day celebration.  First we had an Easter egg hunt with Victoria and Luke while GG was visiting (more on that visit in another blog)....


Then it was time to dye our own Easter eggs....


Our next Easter celebration was an egg hunt at Clay Terrace.  We saw the Easter bunny...
Met up with some of our neighbors...
And had an egg hunt...


The next day the Easter bunny brought the boys some goodies...



Then we were off to Ohio to go to church with Mimi and Poppy...

We had such a nice day in Piqua.  The boys had yet another Easter egg hunt after church and we had a lovely lunch filled with family and delicious mimosas!  I must have had so much fun that I didn't take one picture until we got back in the car to come home...

Happy Easter to all!
