Easter 2020

-
Spring and has sprung and Easter has arrived, Stay at home orders or not.  We've had fun keeping many of our old Easter traditions and making some new memories as we celebrate the Atonement and Resurrection of our Lord, Jesus Christ.  Happy Easter, Ya'll!

 Easter Basket fun!

John and Diana are enjoying playtime inside boxes, because boxes are the best, of course! John is starting to have fun playdates with friends from the neighborhood.  It's so fun to find good friends who share a love in all things Paw Patrol!
