Happy Easter!!!
























































Hey, everybody! What a busy month it's been. Hannah and Milo took in "Sesame Street Live" from the 3rd row center (thanks, Lisa!) and enjoyed Elmo's singing and dancing in person. Riley had her Destination Imagination tournament and her team did an amazing job! We were very proud of our tap dancing turkey. We baked shamrock sugar cookies for St. Paddy's Day but did miss out on corned beef this year. My Dad made up for it by baking some fantastic Irish soda bread. I got a much needed haircut (haven't cut my hair since before we went to China!). Hannah got her first ever haircut from Grandma Ettinger and she looks even cuter! We took Hannah on her first family hike and she did great. Her stamina is unbelievable. Finally, Easter was cold but fun this year. We started the day off with the Easter Pageant at our church which Rob and I directed. All of the kids, including and especially Riley, did a wonderful job and we were once again very proud of them. After the service, Riley went on her 4th egg hunt of the week (there's WAY too much candy in our house right now) and Hannah had her 2nd. This was followed by brunch with Aunt Liz, Uncle Carm and all the grandparents which was wonderful. Then off to Aunt Jean and Uncle Lawrence's for the big Easter Party and yet another egg hunt!! All of the cousins had fun playing together and I ate more desserts than I think I ever have at any holiday party that I've ever attended. Hannah's first Easter with us was joyous as Easter should be! Now if it will just warm up outside, life will be just perfect. As always, enjoy the pix!
