Signs of Life

What a great way to start off our cousins' visit! Our church Easter brunch yesterday morning, held at a nearby hotel, included live chicks and baby bunnies to cuddle and play with in the courtyard area. Maggi, Gwen, Meredyth and Madelyn could barely be persuaded to eat from the sumptuous buffet, so attached were they to these cuddly critters.
The funny thing was that anyone who wanted to could claim a couple of chicks or a bunny and take them home with them! We had many pleading requests, but I didn't think it would be a good mix with our two cats at home. Good excuse, right? Some families who did claim chicks brought the tiny provided wire cages right into the ballroom where we were eating, so their little peeps could be heard everywhere!
I'm not sure, but I think Maggi might be snuggling this chick a little too tightly...
Scott and I with Jenna and Andrew. Just in the couple days since Jen and Andrew arrived, several people have commented on how much Scott and Jenna look alike.


There was a bounce house for the kids at the brunch- Caleb and Seth and a couple of friends decided to give it a try and found they could dive through the windows in the side... if they were careful to watch for toddlers. :-)
