My brother JP and his family also joined us, which meant the kids got lots of COUSIN time! Six cousins!
Our visit included Easter weekend, which of course, is not complete without the making and breaking of cascarones (worthy of its own post, I think) and a visit from the Easter bunny, plus lots and lots of family. My grandparents, along with my aunt Carrie and cousins Albert and Amy also joined the festivities.
Dad with his sister and dad.
Aunt Carrie and Amy, cooking up a tasty zucchini dish!
I caught some snuggle time with baby Leo.
Fiona shared some secrets with my cousin Albert.
Tried to take an epic family photo with my children and their great-grandparents around naptime. It’s still epic.
The twos! Fiona and cousin Lydia (only a 17 days apart) love each other. Dean had fun climbing on top of a little tikes car.
Leo gave many smiles!
There were many movies to be watched! Especially involving princesses and fairies. Fiona had lots of catching up to do with her girl cousins.
One morning Gramps and Leo wore stripes together.
Matthew finally arrived! He didn’t miss a beat holding sweet baby Leo and entertaining/playing with the kids while performing animal exercises (such as the sloth, below) and wii dance.
Finally, the day before we left for Oklahoma, my family celebrated my 34th birthday (!) with a sweet bunny cake and many, many candles (Thanks, Rita and Dad!).
Phew. What an adventure we have had. One of my best birthday months on record.
