Easter In California

Easter Pinata

Even in Cali, He Is Risen! We had flown and drove down to Modesto for Easter with Diane's family, and the celebration started Saturday night as we went to her sister-in-law's mom's place for a BBQ and Easter egg hunt. Those folks went so far as to give Hannah her own little basket! Then a pinata for the kids to wack at. Much love there, I tell you! Sunday we drove out to a Park for the Gitmed family food-a-thon. It was great to see all of those folks, although Hannah and I had a hard time remembering most of them. Still, the love and family was great! There was an Easter egg hunt by the grandkids, and Hannah found an egg with $10 in it! She was overjoyed. I was just full. Have I mentioned how much food there was? After this was over, we went to Michaela's dad's, Mike's, place for what turned out to be an impromptu street-football game. Michaela's team won due to injuries to her dad, step-mom, and step-uncle. hmmm... remember that next time you play football with Michaela! More Easter baskets for Hannah & Michaela got a new purse/bag filled with loot. Really, a wonderful time! I say, the family down there really is; Family, as much as they can be, even to those of us not directly related or recently married into the fam'. Thanks y'all!
