Party and Wedding wknd March 08

The last weekend in March was super busy. My parents came into town and we celebrated Maura's 5th Birthday and went to my dear Cousin Jackie's wedding in New Braunfels on the same Saturday.

Our weekend started off eventful as early as Wednesday when my dad's journey, bound for San Antonio, got changed. The only way into Texas was to fly into SA and drive. So, I picked up my mom from the airport, then later that day he took a rental to my home. Several family members from Ohio also were affected by cancellations and flew into Austin instead. I got home from the airport at 1AM Thursday morning with Aunt Kora, Uncle Bud, Aunt Michelle, and cousin Maggie. The next morning Aunt Lucha, Aunt Barbara, and her son Josh drove in to pick them up and take them to San Antonio. What a journey.

It was worth it. Jackie was a beautiful bride. It was a fun wedding and we all enjoyed celebrating and see each other again. Alex had a ball dancing with Cousin Felicia's daughter Ferra who is 4. Aidan, Maura, Brady, and Mark all had fun on the dance floor too!!

Easter Week 08

We had a fun Easter this year. Jeremy's parents were in town the week prior and we went to Longhorn Caverns in Burnet. The boys actually did fairly well through the hour and a half tour. Aidan and Alex did a lot of egg hunting this year. They went to an Easter egg hunt Elizabeth Milburn Park, then they had a hunt at school, then they had a hunt at Kay Radden Park behind our house, then they hunted after church on Easter morning. That added up to too much candy! I think they have been on a sugar rush for over a week straight! Aidan learned a lot about Easter. He learned about the tomb that Jesus was in and His rising to life again. Very big stuff for a 4 year old. Alex just enjoyed dying eggs in the backyard with Poppy and Grandma Julie.
