1 Family x 12 (April)

 

We went back home the weekend after Easter to help with a few projects Dad needed help with and I decided we needed a fun activity - something different.  I did some looking around and found an escape room in Stockton - just 25 minutes or so away from Mom and Dad's.  The girls were SO excited, and Mom and Dad had never done one.  We escaped with just a few minutes to spare.  We needed a few clues from the owner, but overall he said we did really well.  It was a fun way to spend a few hours doing something different!

Easter 2026

 We hosted Easter at our house this year with a small crowd.  Mom and Dad were in the Keys on vacation so we'll see them next weekend.  Erin, Nate and Dan all came out and we made our standard Easter meal - a smoked ham with boxed Au Grain potatoes (next year we'll make 3 boxes...and yes, it seems extreme, and yes, everyone asks for the boxed version...we've all decided they really are the best).

Everyone humored me with a few family photos.

And, of course the Easter Bunny came on Sunday morning.  Stupid Penny found the family basket before we could get to her and she took a big chomp out of the ONE candy the Easter Bunny brought for me (eye roll).  We're only missing 3 eggs somewhere in the house (we think).  I'm sure we'll find them before next Easter.
