Our Easter

This Easter was a little different for us this year. Joel's maternal grandma became very sick the week before Easter and was admitted to the inpatient Hospice facility near Defiance. She had been sick with Alzheimer's for over ten years and unfortunately just recently developed breast cancer. We ended up having our Bailey Easter at the facility on Saturday and she passed away while we were there. That night ended up being a very long one and it didn't help that Gavin woke up about every two hours complaining that his foot and leg hurt (growing pains). Needless to say we woke up later than we wanted on Sunday and with my back out it just wasn't going to happen for us to go to church. I felt horrible since it was Easter but I figured that God would forgive us. :) So I have no pictures of the boys dressed up for Easter this year....there's always next year! Oh, my niece finally had her little boy on Friday the 21st....she was due on Monday the 17th. She was so ready to have him! Well, that is all that's been happening in our lives lately. I would say that we're ready for it to calm down just a little this next week.
