Early Easter Celebration

Grandma and Grandpa Goodhue came down on Friday. It has been a long time since they have visited and it was a wonderful time had by all. Noelle, Max, Violette, Grandpa, and I all were sick, but starting to be on the mend. Whatever illness we did have seemed to really knock us down.
Here is a little video of Noelle and Max digging into a cool whip container Saturday morning, a typical stunt normally they would not be allowed to do. The joy on their faces is priceless!


Aunt Ceecee and her boyfriend, Mike, also came to join the family fun on Saturday. Uncle Alex was missing due to a spring break trip he was on. We hid Easter eggs for the kids outside and they loved finding them. Noelle was a bit greedy and wanted all the eggs to herself, but Max can hold his own and was quick to grab his fair share.

We had a nice early ham dinner and spent the rest of the day enjoying each other's company. Noelle, Max, and Violette were very tuckered out and all took afternoon naps. Noelle fell asleep on the couch surround by everyone, she looked sweet as can be.

Everyone parted ways in the evening. It was sad to see them go, but we all had a wonderful time. It was great having the room to have all the family over, and three extra dogs!

Noelle and Max have been talking about the family visit all day. Recalling many wonderful memories, and that to me is the best part!
