Happy Easter, Happy Birthday!

Hi All,
We held a dual celebration today, for Easter and my Grandma's birthday (plus all the other family birthdays on or around this time).
So, I guess that makes my first official Easter hosting experience, although we got a lot of help from family members. (Everyone brought food, including my parents' huge and delicious ham.) So, I can't take all the credit. :) All in all, I think it went well. Most importantly, my gram (our guest of honor) said it was perfect and really enjoyed being surrounded by family.

Drew and Bree enjoyed some outside time with the grandparents and some Easter eggs. Thank goodness for the nice day!


Bree, Papa, and the eggs - Papa tossed, Bree retrieved, and they repeated again and again.


And Drew enjoyed some reading time with Aunt Diane.


When it came time for cake, my amazingly talented cousin-in-law Hillary had us covered once again. The cake was beautiful, and tasted incredible (Bavarian creme = delicious!)


The birthday line-up! Once we started looking, we found lots of April/May birthday people in the crowd to join in on the fun.


Our family shot for the day; many of us were pretty worn out by the time we took this picture.


And the last picture of the day; yes, the kids were officially done at this point. At least my parents are still smiling!
