a happy Easter to you

We hope everyone is enjoying today, being with family and friends.

A glimpse into our little celebration...

We hope y'all have a great week!

spring break in Kansas

I'll warn you, this post contains a LOT of pictures. But how else can we show how much fun we had visiting our family and friends back in Kansas?

We saw so many familiar faces, it was so nice to see everyone! It was also nice to experience some spring-like weather...

RIP Island park playground :(
It burned down a few days after our visit...for the 2nd time in 5 years

We were even able to have the opportunity to visit the zoo...

Made us miss the beach...

The [real] animals were in a photo-ready mood...

And these two decided to lounge around [not really]...

should i just drop them off? they fit right in...

seriously, if  looks could talk? or rather, if monkeys could talk...

We were also lucky enough to meet up with some family friends...

who could resist a puppy at the park?

Proud dads with their kids...

Thanks for a great visit, and many more memories to keep us warm til the next time :)

Ps...we were able to meet our new niece/cousin, baby Addison...isn't she adorable?!
