Easter 2012

Our family

Last Game of Season

The last game of the season didn't mean anything, but Brian and our friend Craig went to the game in Pittsburgh. An exciting playoff series awaits.

Egg Festivities

This is getting too fun for words. We colored eggs in the morning at my parents' house (Colton colored his hand instead). We also had a fun egg hunt - the kids had a blast and we did too. Colton did a really good job and was so proud of his basket full of eggs. Thanks to my parents for a fantastic Easter celebration with the family.

Making Pancakes with Ma Ma

Colton can't say "Grandma." He says, "Ma Ma" instead. He loved spending time with his Grandma & Grandpa in Pittsburgh. And like my fantastic memories of helping my Nonnie cook while standing on a stool next her, I had to capture Colton doing the same with my mom. We made pancakes and Colton poured the batter and stirred the mixture together. Awesome memories in the making.

Morse Cousins

It was so fun to see Colton so excited to play and spend time with his cousins Alana & Gavin. They spent the days running around the house, playing the piano (performing a 'concert'), and laughing and enjoying each other. Colt looks up to his cousins and Alana & Gavin took good care of him. Gavin said, "I love baby Colton."

Holding Nash & Rose

My best friend Jessie delivered Nash & Rose on October 19th - 10 weeks before their due date. It was a scary process, but now Nash & Rose are almost 6 months old and doing great. We didn't get to hold them when we were in for Christmas, so we were excited to get a chance to formally meet them and connect over Easter. We love them!

Pancake Breakfast

It was the annual Edge Hill volunteer firefighters' pancake breakfast. We have been going for many years to support our good friend Tom - one of the true heroes who puts his life on the line to save others...and for nothing in return. Colton enjoyed his syrup topped with a little bit of pancakes. Tom took us out to see the firetruck and Colton was super excited. He got a little scared sitting up on the truck by himself, but Colton loves firetrucks. He goes on YouTube and watches videos of firetrucks just going down the street. He will watch it for hours.
