Easter

Our Easter celebrations got started on Thursday night as we headed up to Andrew's parents to see his brother Ben, who was home from Virginia for the week. We had fun catching up with him and hanging out with the rest of the family that could make it home (we missed the rest of you)! Friday we headed out and did some shopping and Saturday the boys went disc golfing all day while Mom Wiese watched Ollie a couple hours for me so I could enjoy shopping alone! Here is a Lego castle that Andrew and Ben spent some time building...
Ollie snuggling with Uncle Kevin and Aunt Melissa...
Dad and Mom Wiese...
Andrew's new look...
The grandchildren and their Easter baskets that Grandpa and Grandma labeled "Praise the Lord Buckets (if i remember correctly?).... so fun!
On Saturday night we headed down to my parents house. Dad and Drew were in St. Louis for the weekend and were suppose to fly back Sunday morning but weren't for sure if they would be able to because of the tornado that hit the St. Louis airport. Andrew and I hung out with Mom and Brock Saturday night and then headed to Easter service Sunday morning with them. Dad and Drew were able to fly out and met us back home for lunch, along with Aaron, Nichole, and the kids! We had a relaxing afternoon that included Easter baskets, an egg hunt, pellet gun shooting, and disc golf in the yard....







Ollie and Jake loved being outside but Jake wanted out of the old playpen Mom got out :) We had a yummy steak dinner. Lindsey, Brock's girlfriend, came for dinner and we got to play some more disc golf afterwards.
We are so thankful for wonderful family and the Reason for the Season! Our Savior is Risen!
