Old buddies

The Pochops came back for a visit and we reconvened old buddies. We miss them so much!

It's Spring the Northwest today - rainy and 50-something. Amazingly we had a small taste of summer last weekend when my Mom came for a visit. Easter Sunday was bright, warm, and glorious for eggs hunts (multiple of course), gardening, and even eating alfresco. Lily took to the egg hunts like a professional, insisting on carrying her own egg-laden basket and getting downright competitive with her sister. They loved having Mimi here and kept her very busy with tea parties. My mom and I had a shopping extravagenza at the new Green Eileen store that just opened in the neighborhood and the grown-ups had a yummy dinner out at La Medusa.
