Catch Up...

Hi All,
Just a quick blog to catch you all up! The weekend after Gabriel's birthday party my sister Brigid and her girls, Katherine and Annabelle, came to visit from Michigan. I also had Katie come visit so she could visit with us and of course our nieces. (Katie is the little girl that I used to nanny for a LONG time ago while finishing my teaching credential). I met her when she was 6 months old and now she will be 10 in June! Time flies!

We spent Easter weekend in Grover beach with Casey's side of the family. We had a wonderful time dying eggs, having dinner at the Elk's (where Casey's 92 year old Grandpa is a diligent member), and going to the beach! The Easter bunny came Sunday morning and left Easter baskets for everybody not to mention the eggs stuffed with mula and candy! Noah loved it! Gabriel was a little lost, but I'm sure this time next year he'll be hunting those eggs down too!
