Easter 2013

Had another good Easter this year!  Went to church, then went to Helen's house for the big Easter dinner, an egg hunt, and Seth's birthday party!  Can't believe he's 10!

 Here's Grant and his silly face, very excited about getting treats and gifts from the Easter Bunny!

 Natalie was also very excited about getting some books, games and of course, a chocolate bunny!

We snapped about 5 pictures of the kids outside of church this year and this one turned out pretty good.  Aren't they so cute in their Easter outfits from Nana?

Family selfie on our way to Helen and Gordie's house!  Kids are sporting their cute Easter rabbit visors!

And of course, we can't forget a picture of the Easter spread!  YUM!

 

Time for the yearly family photo.  We take one of these every year on Easter.  My beautiful family!

Cousins looking all cute on Easter!

 

 Lauren and her two littlest cousins- they all kind of look alike, minus the hair color!

 It's not Easter unless there's birthday festivities for Seth!  Look at Natalie eyeballing that cake! 

Surprise March snowstorm (aka: Saturn)

A few weeks later, March 7-8, we had a "surprise" snowstorm (called "Saturn" by The Weather Channel).  NWS was calling for 4-8" around our area, and we wound up getting 16"!  The storm was centered well south of New England (off of DelMarVa) but some of the wrap around bands of snow really nailed us.  School was cancelled for the kids and Todd stayed home with them, although his work wasn't cancelled.  Mine wasn't cancelled either, so I drove to the train station and then took the train to work.  When I got back at the end of the day, MBTA hadn't plowed the West Natick parking lot, so I couldn't get my car out!  Todd had to pack up the kids and come and get me.  Later, after they had plowed, Todd brought a shovel and shoveled out my car.  It was a much bigger mess than the Blizzard!!!

Here's Natalie trying to catch snowflakes on her tongue.

Here's Grant in the snow... or, at least the top half of him anyway.  It's amazing he can see anything from under that hat!

The kids got to make a snowman with Daddy on their day off!
