| Randy's brother, Dale and his wife Audrey and their daughter Madison came to visit those of us in NY over Easter (March 28 - 31). It was so great to have them here. The first 4 pictures are from our trip to the MOST ( a hands on science museum geared for kids). We spent a lot of their first full day here trying stuff out and looking around. |

 |
| There were a number of fight simulators. All the kids loved having their turn to try them out. Madison is patiently watching Sophia while Dale looks out for Luke. |
 |
| Everyone also took a turn digging for fossils, Henry and Timmy are having a try here. |
 |
| I already posted a couple pictures of all of us celebrating Alex's birthday. After the celebration we dyed Easter eggs. Everyone got involved. (Sophia, Audrey, and Alex) |
 |
| Alex patiently helping his little brother, Timmy. |
 |
| Uncle Dale helping Henry, while Madison and Sophia dye eggs, too. |
 |
| I helped some too. Here I am by Alex helping Tim. |
 |
| Here are our Easter eggs in all their glory!! You can see some are stripped, we put rubber bands on them when dying them, which left white strips. Them some of the eggs were re-dyed to color the strips (An idea from pintrest that worked!). They turned out beautiful! |
 |
| Easter morning, after church with their Easter loot. (Alex got arrows, Sophia a Skylander, Henry got Green Lantern and is also holding his chocolate bar, Max got a Skylander, Timmy got a firetruck, and Luke got baby food. For those of you over 12, skylanders is a video game that requires action figure) |
 |
| Luke checking out his 1st Easter basket. |
 |
| I could not get Luke to smile, apparently he is terrified or very surprised by the whole Easter thing. ( A little side note, these are actually the day after Easter. Monday I realized I hadn't taken any pictures of Luke by himself on his 1st Easter and I felt bad. So I dug his Easter clothes out of the dirty laundry, dressed him up and took some pictures. I was going to keep it a secret but thought, nah, let's be real.) |
