A Lovely Weekend!

We had such a lovely weekend! It started with a nice visit from Mark's folks Friday afternoon and evening. They stayed overnight and then we were joined by other family members for lunch and an afternoon visit on Saturday. We gathered to celebrate Paula, Alan, & Glenna's birthdays and Paula & Alan's anniversary--and to visit and enjoy each other's company on a nice Spring afternoon!

We were delighted that so many folks could make it. We missed Tim & Britni (nephew & niece-in-law), but hope they were enjoying their weekend activities too! It is always nice when we get to visit with parents, siblings, and nieces & nephews. Of course, the littlest ones (Ruthie & Riley) steal the show--but we enjoy the grown-up ones just as much! (Did I mention that we just love being 'aunt' (or 'Nanny') and 'Uncle'!)

Mark enjoyed getting to hold Ruthie for a good long time and I enjoyed playing with Riley. Riley seemed to enjoy Oscar, who was a pret
ty well-behaved dog overall. He barked too much--as usual, but he did provide some fairly good entertainment by hunting lizards all afternoon. This social stuff does wear Oscar out and he crashed just after everyone left. He has continued to nap most of today too!

We wrapped up the weekend with a lovely Palm Sunday service this morning. We hope you had a lovely weekend too!

Have a good week ahead. Thanks for reading!
