Bunny Cake!

I'm not sure how long my mom has been making this bunny cake, but he hopped in for another appearance this year for the grandkids. After dying Easter eggs at grandma's house we were sent home with this sweet little character, and wasted no time in enjoying him! Even our little guy got in on some frosting, with some help from Daddy.
Here comes Peter Cottontail...

Easter!

We had a fun morning hunting for eggs and baskets! The boys got some fun new games! Then we spent most of the day enjoying time with both sides of the family and of course going to Easter Mass, it was a beautiful, blessed day. We thank God for many gifts he has given to us.

Zoo Blooms Part II

We took the boys to the zoo, as a family this time, the day before Easter. There were many more flowers in bloom this time and we took part in a few special Easter celebrations.

Spring is in the air

...And in the garden. The Mary statue and the Snow Fountain Cherry tree in full bloom are both from our garden. Mark has worked very hard on our landscape and I think one of my favorite things is when the Cherry has blossoms covering the entire tree, it doesn't last long, but every year it marks the beginning of many more beautiful plants blooming and sprouting new green foliage. Later this year I'm ecspecially looking forward to the flowers I'll be watching grow in my cutting garden to make into bouquets to bring inside and give as gifts.

Of course we enjoy running around our yard sometimes too. The boys both tried out their brand new kites for their very first kite flying experience. We did get the kites off of the ground, but I think we'll wait for a little windier day to really see what they can do! Let's go fly a kite!

Zoo Blooms Part I

Well, it was a nice day in Cincinnati and they seem to be few and far between these days, we've even had snow in the past week!! So, I took advantage of the beautiful weather and took the three boys to the zoo by myself. Thankfully, they were all well behaved and we took a nice little walk around the zoo and enjoyed both the animals and some of the thousands of spring flowers just beginning to bloom there. We had a great time!

Busy Weekend

We kept moving and were hardly home this weekend. We took all three boys to their first stage production and saw "Charlotte's Web" live at the Taft theatre in Cincinnati. Everyone's favorite character was, of course, Charlotte.

Then, we had two fun birthday parties to attend. The first was for a friend of ours at Chuck E Cheese's first birthday! We ate, played, chatted, and evendid a little drving with the Big Cheese himself.

Our weekend concluded with lots of family celebrating Grandpa's birthday and viewing photos from Grandma & Grandpa's recent trip to Germany.

We kept busy but enjoyed our whole weekend!

Brothers!

I'm not sure if we have any previous blogs with this title, so it may be the first post called "Brothers", but I'm sure it won't be the last. We enjoy our boys, and they enjoy spending time with eachother!

How many little people can you fit into one play gym anyway?
