Easter weekend
Erin's birthday dinner, a trip to St. Louis, Lauren's shower, Easter......it was a packed weekend!

My mom made such a yummy meal for Erin's birthday- lasagna for dinner and lemon cake for dessert. We had such a nice time hanging out with Erin, Chad, Addison, Galen, Lyn, Mom and Dad on Friday night.

Drew and Aunt Bridgi

Gracie put on quite a performance for Erin on Friday evening! Here she is wearing one of Erin's old dance recital costumes that my parents recently found in the attic. There were many costume changes invloved with her show! :)

Gram and Addi

Poor Millie got chased around by Gracie and the camera for quite a while at Lauren's shower on Saturday. Isn't she adorable?

This picture just makes me smile. I assume this is Gracie being really proud of her new sandals and pedicure?

Gracie told me a couple of times how pretty she thought Lauren looked, so we made sure to get a picture of them together. Side story- Gracie's suitcase got left in Indiana somehow, and she was pretty disappointed since it had a new dress inside of it especially picked out for the trip to St. Louis. We made her very happy with a quick trip to Old Navy on Saturday morning for a new dress. She was even more happy when she walked into Ric and Elaine's house and saw that she was dressed like Lauren!
Highlights for each of us-
Drew: lots of cuddle time with people that love him, showing off his first tooth, celebrating his first Easter
Luke: playing Ghostbusters with Uncle Brian, flying kites and searching for eggs at Faye and Bob's, jumping on the trampoline with Joe, Will, Brian, and Bridget
Gracie: getting Mommy and Daddy all to herself for the day on Saturday for our trip to St. Louis, putting on a birthday show for Aunt Erin, eating at Sweet Tomatoes with Kelly on Saturday, Lauren's shower, playing with her cousins
Leslie: wonderful and relaxed time with our family, catching up with June and Carrie on Saturday morning and Kelly on Saturday afternoon, Thai food and chai gelato with Dave and Rebecca (soooo yummy!), lots of fun time with Ben
Ben: ( I am speaking for him...could be totally off...) a three and a half day weekend, great food all weekend long, seeing I Love You, Man, bowling with Patti, Bryan, and the kids, hanging out and drinking beer with his St. Louis relatives on Saturday, a great day with family on Easter
Lots of pictures taken this weekend! To share just a few........
