The trees were blooming when I went to Iowa on April 28th
to watch Ari perform in "Alice in Wonderland" at Regis Middle School.

On April 23, Kathy and Jerry's 50th Anniversary,
we took pizza and ice cream cake out to their farm |
 |
This was their "real" anniversary;
family party is coming up on May 14th! |
 |
We flew back to Minneapolis on March 31st
and spent some time at Corey and Ana's.
I think the girls are teaching grampa how to play.... |
 |
Lydia and Cecelia wanted to entertain me
while Mommy and Grampa ran some errands, |
 |
| so they played a few "tunes" before we left for Iowa |
 |
Claire was back from Grampa and Gramma Martin's
when we were returning from Iowa and Wisconsin,
so we exerted a lot of energy in the motel pool in Buffalo |
 |
| Just about ready to quit....the girls slept well that night! |
In between stops at Ana's, we went to Iowa and Wisconsin
 |
Annika and Ariana had gymnastics
the morning of April 2nd |
