Happy Easter!

Last Sunday was Easter.  We went to church in the morning with Kevin's parents and brother.  Then we went over to Sara's parents' house for an egg hunt and family dinner.  We were thankful we were able to see both sides of the family on such a special, blessed holiday.  We hope you were so fortunate to spend time with those you love as you celebrated the resurrection of our Lord and Savior.  Happy Easter!

Welcome, Anthony Michael!

Last weekend, we took a drive down to Rochester Hills to visit our good friends, Ben and Kati, and to meet their newest addition, Anthony Michael. What a precious little boy, he is! We all just fell in love with him! Carson adored him, but he did not want to hold him. He wanted to be near him at all times, though. And he told us after we'd left that he "just loves baby Anthony already, but I think he will be lots of fun when he grows bigger and can play with me!". :)

Congratulations to Ben and Kati!! And thank you for sharing your beautiful baby boy with us! We look forward to many fun times and memories ahead with our little families! :)

Rebecca Turns 3!!

A few weeks ago, on April 16th, we made another trip west to Grandville (near Grand Rapids) for our niece's birthday party. This was Rebecca's 3rd birthday, but her first party, so we were very excited to finally celebrate her birthday with the family! She had a Disney princess themed party, complete with her own Disney princess dress with matching bib and bag that her mom (Kevin's sister) made for her.

Mary made another awesome birthday cake to go along with the theme, too.  A tiered cake - the top tier was chocolate and the bottom tier was white.  It looked great and fit the theme perfectly!

These kids are growing up way too fast! I still remember when we met Rebecca for the first time at just a couple days old. It's hard to believe she is already 3!

We had a great time celebrating Rebecca's special day and look forward to more birthday parties in the years to come!  The kids all had a blast playing together, as always.  They even put on a little dress-up fashion show at the end of the party for us all!

Sorry the pictures are all quite dark.  I haven't had a chance to try brightening them up and Kevin didn't change the settings on the camera before shooting them.  :o)

Happy Birthday, Rebecca!!
