This weekend Grandma and Grandpa DeLuca drove out to Baltimore to spend Easter weekend with us.  It was a lot of fun.  We dyed easter eggs, spent lots of time outside enjoying the beautiful weather, watched a movie,

went shoe shopping for the boys,

and hung out on the porch talking by the fire pit.

 

The boys loved the guacamole that their dad made.  We were all dying laughing watching Anthony “dip” his chips.  He’d put his entire hand into the bowl and his fist came out with more gauc than the chip.  I counted 14 times that he dipped one chip.  He is not aware of the double-dip rule.

At one point Anthony gave up on the chips and just grabbed handfuls of guac.

On Saturday evening Paul drove up with Stacie.  Stacie is also a fraternal twin so we got to hear all about what it’s like growing up as a twin.  It was so nice to see Uncle Paul and meet Stacie.  On Sunday Nathan gave us all a scare when he decided to do a cartwheel down the brick steps from our patio to the yard.  He looked me right in the eye when I said “Nathan, please turn around and do down backwards”.  Then he took a step over the edge.  He is going to be a hand full.

 

He is a trooper though.  He wouldn’t let us hold the frozen peas to his head and cried more about that then he did about the fall.  He got scraped up pretty good and has a nasty bruised bump.

It was a relaxing weekend.  It felt nice not worrying about anything and just enjoying spending time with family.
