The Decemberists...and Friends

We had the opportunity to see one of our favorite bands play in Grand Rapids. We got into town and headed to Old Boys Brewery where we met up with old friends and enjoyed good food and company.

Heather and Ben are always awesome with my kids!

Our long table filled with friends - it was great to see everyone!

Concert time!

We did a "Carys" pose.:)

Lead singer for The Decemberists

The Decemberists
We had a great time! They were amazing!

Shopping the next day...
Auntie Heather was very popular!

Of course we had to get some reading time in!

Auntie Heather's cats were a HUGE hit with my kids!!!

It was fun to get away for a couple days!

Saturday with Friends

We spent a lovely Saturday hanging out with friends, eating, egg hunting, egg dying, making egg rice krispie treats and dancing to a Wii game. The kids had a blast, as did their mama!:)

And they're off!






Carys is rehiding the eggs she found.



Elie










Carys was more into crushing the egg than dying it... everyone kept telling her to eat it (she eats hard boiled eggs often), but she gave her brother quite the look and then proceeded to mash it
and dump it.






I believe this was "Who Let the Dogs Out." The kids were really into dancing...okay, so we mothers had just as much fun.:)







Good times had by all!!!

Piggy Back Rides

We were getting ready for bed and got distracted..

.so yes, Carys is diaperless and Caedmon pantless.

Rockin' Buddies

(notice the hat on Carys - her infant hat from the hospital)

Dancing

My kids love to dance, especially Carys.

Spring Day at the Park

Love this time of year and getting back to the park again!

Ben came up to visit and the really good pics are one he took.:)
