Everyone seemed to enjoy themselves, especially Maya who likes it when there are big girls in the house. 

My mom and dad are here for the Easter weekend and we were joined by Seth, Anna, and Maddie for a sequential egg decorating game. Everyone takes an egg, adds one facial feature and passes the egg to their left. In no time flat you have a bunch of funny looking eggs. 

After work, I was asked to take a team photo for Kyle’s soccer team. A guess you could say this is a good looking team (compared to the muskrat). 

On the way into work this morning, I stopped by Great Meadows with a long lens. The wind was really blowing and it was much colder than I had anticipated. Fortunately, I came across this muskrat before my camera operating digits became inoperable. 

Yesterday it snowed and I had to wait till this morning to get my camera out. Winterscapes are becoming one of my favorite photographic subjects. 

I worked with Nicolai to sell his Roland V-Drums (electronic) on Craig’s List where we also found a complete set of acoustic drums to replace them with. I don’t think Nicolai has ever thanked me so many times in one day. The only down side is that acoustic drums do not come with a volume control. 

Jeanine, not known for being a big clothing shopper, went a little crazy once introduced to the hidden Chinatown boutiques that require friend of a friend introductions and secret maps to find. 

After a late night on the town it was necessary for all participants to purchase new sunglasses to protect their eyes as they took an open air bus tour of the city. 

Jeanine required a massive dose of coffee to sustain her late night activities. She is normally fast asleep by 10pm. 

Jeanine returned late last night from her adventure to NYC where she joined her close friend Monica Frost and Monica’s sister and daughter for three days of entertainment, fine dining, and shopping. 

What day would be complete without Maya climbing on something? Brave Maya lives on! 

The triumphant golfers pose for their father’s benefit. 

For family night, Nicolai decided on miniature golf at Kimball Farm. With Jeanine still in NYC and Kyle at his OWL class, we invited Nico’s friend Kevin to join us. Naturally, golf would be followed by ice cream. 

We also met this little fellow, although I have since forgotten what type. Speaking of owls, Kyle attended his final session of the OWL course at First Parish. This is the same course on human sexuality that I attended when I was growing up in the Unitarian church.
