Balloons! Maddie went with an Easter theme this year, since her party and her actual birthday were
adjacent to Easter.
Goofing around in the yard:
Will and Valerie:
My brother tries to get his dog,Whitney, to respond to Leah's daughter, Gracie:
Clara joins Will and Valerie:
Hannah and Maddie swinging around:
Gracie and her brother, Rory:
Valerie was busy showing us she could walk down the slide:
Instead of a pinata, we had an Easter egg hunt!
Josh and Rob plotting while all the kids were sequestered in the basement:
Go!
Grandma Kitty helps Hannah and Valerie open their eggs.
Inspecting what everyone got:
Cake time!
Mike found a friend:
Hannah came over to tell Mike the rabbit is not his. They got into a counting debate.
He asked her if her birthday was
coming up soon. "Yes, in June." "And you're going to be 4 right?" "No!" "Yes, it goes 1-2-3-4-5-6-4."
Poor kid never figured
out he was joking. Exasperated, she counted all the way to 100 to show him that it always goes 1-2-3-4-5-6-7. Mike was convinced, she was vindicated.
