Maine Maple Sunday

Easter was also Maine Maple Sunday.  Because we had already had an Easter dinner with Logan's mom the Sunday before, we got McDonalds and then headed to Goranson Farm to enjoy the festivities there.  A truly fun afternoon!  Followed by a nap at home!  Lovely day. :)

When we got home Sunday afternoon, the boys disappeared for awhile and then called us outside to see their tableau they had created.  Amazing. :)

We've had lots of bed crashers lately.  Lots of snuggles but very little rest for mommy and daddy!

Grandma's Visit

We had a lovely and perfectly-timed visit from Grandma! I was in production week of Iolanthe and Logan was in need of extra help with the kids.  She was a tremendous help!

 

We celebrated a belated birthday with her on Tuesday when she arrived:

 

Josiah took Friday off from school so that he could have some quality time with Grandma.  He was extra snuggly with her the whole week!

We had many of our Easter festivities a week early to include Grandma.  She gave the kids Easter baskets Sunday morning:

Grandma made a bunny cake with the kids:

We had an egg hunt:

 

And the kids decorated eggs:

The week flew by!  It was sad to say goodbye.  We couldn't have fared so well without Grandma's help.  Thank you!  We love you!
