The McGuffin

We spent time in Massachusetts for Auntie Shu's funeral right around Easter.  We were so grateful to see lots of family.

If you look closely, you'll see Cecelia and Zan having a little moment on the porch 

The kids were happy to have a chance to visit and read with Memere!

Auntie Kristi found a really cool Empty Tomb Resurrection Cake that they created with the kids!

We had a blast go-carting one afternoon...

Uncle Joe and Cecelia

Kristi and Zoe, Joseph and Wil

Uncle Matt let Fitz do the pedal the whole way around

Seraphina and Daddy cruising here...S did a lot of steering!

Cecelia loved it!

Zoe was old enough to drive on them own! So cool!

Joseph too! And Zan as well!

Woo hoo!

After some lunch we had a chilly walk on the beach.
Me and my sis!

"Who wants to go swimming!?"

Wrestling with Uncle Matt!

Easter Morning brought some new books 

And a hunt for Easter Eggs and candy! (Henri finds one in the tree)

Uncle Don came for Easter Brunch

Greeting Aunt Kathy before the funeral

Auntie Shu's nine nephews and niece were the pallbearers. The great nephews helped too

We visited the gravesite of Pop and Gram who are our kids' namesakes 

Cecelia placed a dandelion

And the kids lined up some rocks

There is just something about this shot that I love

Uncle Andy directed and filmed a movie with the kids in honor of Auntie Shu - they all had such a wonderful time!
