I trust everyone had a super Easter!! We did! Crazy busy, but so nice! The only downfall was Mike had to work over the weekend. His floater day was on Easter Sunday so after sleeping a little bit, he was able to join us that day. On Saturday, the kids and I met up with my parents, piled in our van, and headed for my brother's house in Charlottesville. My parents went to a memorial service that morning while Paul, Allison and Adella (my brother and his family) joined the kids and me at an egg hunt at Charlottesville High School. There were a few activities to do in addition to the hunt and they all came home with balloons. All four kids had a nice time.
We then returned to Paul and Allison's house to eat our packed lunches, wait for mom and dad to return with my dad's cousins, Martha, John and Linda and then headed out to visit my Grandma Leftwich in Bedford Virginia. While visiting her, we were able to see my Aunt Kathy and Uncle Tim as well. My Grandma Leftwich has Alzhimers so visits are difficult since she really has no idea who many of us are. I think she still knows my dad and my Aunt Kathy, but from day to day you really never know if she even knows them. She has not know
n me for many years.
n me for many years.
After our Bedford visit, we headed for Lynchburg Virginia where my Grandma Parker lives. After visiting at her "home" for a little while, we took her out to dinner at Golden Corral in Lynchburg ("G's Golden Corral" as the kids called it). After returning her to her room 
we left Lynchburg and headed for home. While v
isiting both Grandmothers we took our usual pictures. Can I tell you how difficult it is to get four kids, ages 5, 3, 3 and 2 to all look at the camera and smile all the while telling Grandma to look at the camera:). The best picture we had of the kids . . . all were smiling . . . all looked natural and happy . . . Grandma was talking in the photo. Oh well.

We returned to our house at 10:30 and the kids were passed out from about Madison Heights on. It was such a great, fun day; but a VERY long day!!
