A couple of weekends ago, we enjoyed seeing our friends, the Hilliards. We haven't been able to see them for quite some time due to Covid and our schedules not cooperating. They were taking a trip to Orlando and flying out of Kansas City. We met them at their hotel the night before their flight. The kids enjoyed swimming at the hotel pool, eating pizza, and playing video games together. Leslie also loved some chess time with Mark, a formidable opponent! So fun to see them even if only for a couple of hours.
Speaking of visitors, Bobby's dad and Ann came for a visit over the weekend! The weather was beautiful. We went for a walk and showed them the creek where the kids like to play. We ate some delicious KC BBQ, chatted and laughed, and of course, Leslie played chess with Papa, another formidable opponent (she's getting good!). Such a fun time!

On Sunday, our neighborhood hosted its annual Easter Egg Hunt. We were happy to see it still happen. The kids wore masks, and loved seeing their friends outside of the school setting. We hiked there and back (about 25 minutes each way). Gotta earn that candy! On the way home, Daniel's friend and neighbor, Shafer, joined us. It's funny to listen to boys just talk and talk - mostly about explosions and how cool they are... sigh. It was nice for Daniel to have a friend to connect with. We've still tried to social distance, but after a year of this, I think we're all ready to have more social and less distance, especially for the kids.
