While Easter isn't usually too hectic of a Holiday for us, this year it turned into a three day event. Friday was actually pretty mellow, G-Mama arrived to stay with us for the weekend and we had a quiet dinner at home with her. Reed was so excited that she was staying with us - he had her reading books, doing puzzles, and trying to follow along with his imagination all weekend. Her stay also meant lots of extra cuddle time with Kieran, who has changed a lot since she met him four months ago.
On Saturday my Mom, Aunt Penny, Auntie M, and I hosted a shower for our cousin Adam's fiancé, Emily. It was great getting to know her better and welcoming her into the family. Aunt Kari brought their daughter Haleigh (5 weeks) to the shower and it was the first time a lot of us had the pleasure of meeting her.

After the shower we decided that since my parents were hosting Easter for 30 people the next day we would have their contingency over for pizza and spare their house the mess. Aunt Laurie, Uncle Peter, Uncle Kyle, Aunt Kari, Annaliese, and Haleigh made the trek with them and we had a nice evening.
