Easter Fun

We spent a wonderful Easter weekend up at my parent's house.  We rounded out my birthday celebration, dyed eggs, went to the Easter Festival for the second year in a row, Jim and my Dad golfed, Jim and I enjoyed a date night out, Ben slept in a big bed for the first time ever, and of course we celebrated Easter on Sunday with baskets, candy, a search for eggs, and a delicious ham lunch.

  Carrot cake for my birthday

Time to try out a real bed!  Just don't get used to that queen size! :)

He was so excited

And he did great - slept like a log - no problem
