Easter Sunday

We spent Easter Day with Grandma D and the D's - Check out the pic's!

Cousins.....

Mike came over with Lila's cousin Tyler last week for play day. It was cute to see both kids get to a development status where they could: 1) recognize someone else their age that's "been around" before 2) Understood that by playing together with their toys they could collectively have some fun! And they did, Jill and Mike took them to the park, they went swinging, and of course played around in our family room. Enjoy.

Visiting the Sunshine State

I had a conference in Orlando last week and instead of sitting in the hotel room by myself we decided to turn the event into a family trip. Six days in Orlando in 85 degree weather proved to be the perfect tonic for the April winter blues. We had a blast by the pool swimming and taking long walks with Lila. The funny thing was we had a special guest at Disney. Former Illinois governor Rod Blagojevich and his family were vacationing at the same resort, and wouldn't you know that he got indicted during the week - the good news was the indictment didn't ruin his fun and was spotted daily at the pool swimming, relaxing, and taking pictures. It was a hoot and I think Jill might have a crush on the former governor. It's currently snowing and 25 degrees so it's safe to say that we have been shocked back into reality. Enjoy the pictures.
