When I\u2019m with my family at Easter, I feel so alive!  Nothing beats family, fun and good food!  Here are the girls in the first picture with cousin Harper and in the second picture, they are cuddling with my grandmother\u2019s sister, Polly (my great aunt who I claim as my very own Granny too!).  The girls adore her and listen to all our phone conversations very intently.  They think she\u2019s a hoot\u2026 and she is!  Love her!<\/p>\n

Yay for cousin time!!!<\/p>\n

Having cousin Amber at the reunion was icing on the cake.  She and I text and email often, and we just get each other.  She\u2019s the best!  Noelle said, \u201cCousin Linda is the coolest lady in all the world!\u201d  Linda coordinates our Easter weekends and out-does herself each year.  We are so grateful for all her hard work and cheerful attitude.  She\u2019s like a kid in a candy store watching the kids with their surprises\u2026 she\u2019s so giving and loving and everyone knows she\u2019s the joy behind it all!<\/p>\n

The girls wanted a picture in front of the Easter egg tree, but you can only see its pretty bow, lol.  Anna Kate and Kay Kay posed in front of the dessert table for you guys to see.  Next year, I need to take a picture of the 10 yard spread of delicious food.  It\u2019s pretty impressive!<\/p>\n

When Aunt Polly arrived, Noelle had been waiting for her with a mosaic Easter egg drawing that she made just for Aunt Polly.  She was so proud!  Aunt Polly was so sweet to admire it so, and she will definitely put it in a special place because I know it meant a lot to her too!<\/p>\n

Cuddles from Poppa and pics with Amber (Amber is Polly\u2019s granddaughter; her dad and my mom are first cousins) and Polly (my mom\u2019s mom\u2019s sister).<\/p>\n

Flashback pic!  Regan is holding Anna Kate this year in the first picture, and I am holding Regan, pregnant with Noelle in 2006.  So crazy how fast they grow!!!<\/p>\n

Aunt Nancy (and Brother Man) are due in June with their second baby girl.  They are keeping the name a secret, and we are so excited and happy for their growing little family!!!  Where ever there is Rara, Anna Kate\u2019s usually pretty close by.  She\u2019s our stick tight\u2026 always likes an adventure, as long as we are not too far away.  <\/p>\n

These pictures make me so happy!  I love our family SO much and miss my sister\u2019s family who live in England right now.  Can\u2019t wait to have them in the Easter mix when they move back to the states.  All 6 girls and Drew (and one more blessed baby on the way) are going to play so hard\u2026 it\u2019s going to be great!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
