Easter Friends

Easter and other "quick" holidays can always be tough when you live far away from family. There is not quite enough time to travel home to be with loved ones, but once the day comes there is always a little sadness. Thankfully most people in DC are not from here and are in the same situation as us. Therefore you quickly find your local "family" to share special times with. And although in a transient area this family changes from time to time, it is always a comfort to be with them. Today we proudly celebrated our 3rd annual Easter with the Greens. We have had other guests each year, but the core group of Chris, Jessica, Joe, Ash AND Grayson have remained strong.

We FEASTED and talked and laughed and played with Grayson's Easter basket toys.

This year we were thrilled to have our friend Kris join us and he fit right in!

And now get ready for cute Easter boy outfits. A member of our Columbia, SC family sent these after hearing that sweet baby church clothes were in short supply up north. Thank you Leah!!!

Cue the Easter photo shoot. Such a breeze with a toddler and newborn.



And the spoils of the photo shoot (Easter outfit off for play time)


Happy Easter everyone!
