Easter 2012

We spent the weekend visiting Corey's parents in Kenmare, ND (about three hours northwest of here). Kya was a perfect traveler in the car ... I didn't hear a peep from her on the way there or home. Corey's parents are the best hosts: delicious food, fun activities, great company. It was cold and very windy outside (it snowed!) but we were more than content enjoying the company inside.


If I could sum up our Easter weekend in two words, they would be "giggle" and "bonnie"


Giggle: Kya was giggling for about 80 percent of the weekend visit. We all had so much fun baking, eating, making silly faces, coloring eggs, painting, eating, watching the Master's golf tournament, making silly faces, celebrating Matthew's birthday, going to Mass Saturday night, eating, making silly faces, and playing cards. Many great memories.

Bonnie: Kya is in love with the Hager's mini-dachshund Bonnie/Brownie. We often herd (at full yell) "Bonnie!!! BONNIE!!!" from Kya. I'm not sure the dog is as thrilled with the relationship as Kya is, but she doesn't seem to mind the attention.

Kya's shirt says "my aunt spoils me," ... so true.


More puppy love.
