Good Friday, Easter & Oma

Last week we drove to Canada for my Oma's 90th Birthday. It was so fun to be back home (it's been a year) and see all of my family and friends there!


This was on the Good Friday walk with my sister and our friends growing up-Robin and Sarah. Now we each have 2 kids! I haven't been back for the good friday breakfast and walk for YEARS! So it was fun to be there for it this year.

my mom was being ridiculous putting this bonnet on Brooklyn haha poor girl
Amber and me after dinner with Russ and Eric at Crabby Joe's
Sierra's easter baskets. I wanted to do something outside for her but it was so cold and rainy that day.
My mom with her granddaughters. Katrina, Brooklyn, Sierra & Talia
Oma with Brooklyn. Funny story. She kept telling everyone that Brooklyn was 'heavy'. We were just like 'I guess so....She's in the 10th percentile, but whatever" lol Later we find out that she was hinting that she was getting tired from holding her. Oops. Sorry Oma. :)
All my cousins on my dad's side. It's so fun to all be together again. We grew up really close and saw eachother all the time. I miss them!
Everyone with Oma, the birthday girl!
Girl cousins (minus Heather) Kimberly, Amber, Joanna, Hilary, Vanessa & Denise my cousin Rob holding Brooklyn



This is my Oma with her niece Mannon who flew all the way from Holland to be at the birthday party and to meet all of her relatives in Canada. It was so cool to meet her and she was so sweet! She brought back presents for EVERYONE!

Looking at these pictures makes me want to go back and visit again already!

Hilary you are gorgeous, seriously did you really just have a baby!!! You look awesome. And your girls are the cutest things ever. You should have 10 kids because they would all be so beautiful. I love The accessories you have on Brooklyn. She is a doll!
