Alicia was home for the weekend. Jim, Sue, Nate, and Helen along with the Brickner family were coming over to celebrate the Lord's resurrection. Here is the table waiting for company to arrive. Dinner is served. The menu included Olive Garden's Zupa Tuscany Soup and deliciously refreshing Peach tea. From the right side: Pat, Alicia, Nancy & Don Brickner, Allison, Sue, Jimmy, Nathan, and Helen.

After dinner we talked in the family room,
challenged one another to pool games, or
played a new card game - Apples.
Clancy greeted all the guest and handed out the Easter baskets. Not really, but isn't he a cute little bunny?

Allison's husband Josh is currently serving in Iraq, his daughter Ashley is a little sweetheart!

The young and the old celebrating together. This is what makes family gatherings so special! Babies reminding us of God's wonderfulness.


And then Clancy shared his ears with Ashley. Alicia would have no parts of wearing them.
Can you tell it was a long day and someone was tired (of the camera being shoved in her face?) I love having the kids, small and tall, home for the holidays!
