It was a very short visit, all we had was the weekend because Brett had to go to school on Monday. We took off at 2am and arrived at his grandma's house around 9:30am. We went to brunch at a really good Greek restaurant, and returned home to prepare for the guests. At 2pm the party started. All of the relatives arrived for our Easter party. The kids had an Easter egg hunt, Chloe had her own little one of course. We made her roll around the floor to locate her eggs filled with animal crackers. 
It was really nice to see April, Randy, Gretchen, Pauline, and Laverne again. But it was even nicer to meet the other members of Brett's family. All of his mom's other brothers and their boys.
The day was well spent with the family.
Easter Sunday we went to church with his Grandma which was nice. It was a good service about who Jesus was and what he meant. Chloe did a really good job sitting through the service and I only had to leave for the last 20 minutes so I could get her to fall asleep without crying and disturbing the congregation.
After church we went to lunch at the Olive Garden, had wonderful food and conversations. When we got back to his Grandma's house, we left Chloe with his Grandma and took off for a walk along the river by her place. It was really nice and peaceful. I guess Chloe did fine with Grandma. When we got back from our walk, Chloe took her nap and that allowed Brett and I to take a nap as well. I didn't get much sleep this trip so the nap felt really good.
Chloe discovered that she really likes dogs, especially when they lick her.
We headed home after dinner and it was a long 6 hour drive and thankfully, like the ride down, Chloe slept the entire time.

Sweet Chloe looks so "spring-y"! Love the bunny ears and pink shoes - so very fashionable! Isn't family wonderful?
Love you all, and can't wait for your next visit.
