Easter weekend

A few highlights from the Klassen household!

Hunting eggs, family around the table, and Monica getting Uncle Harv to slice her freshly baked Paska on the big meat slicer.  It worked but left a lot of icing on the fingers!

seeing Mike and Ros as an engaged couple and watching Harv’s brother juggle his twin grandbabies.

The only downer was watching the Canucks lose but being together with family more than made up for it.

And last but not least, I got to share my excitement over the arrival of our “Mennonite Girls Can Cook” Cookbook by giving each family their own copy.

And most important of all  - the reason we gather together on Easter Sunday:

Christ is risen!  He is risen indeed!

How fun to use your new addition...and your table that eats the multitudes! And how special to have your kids with you for Easter.

I wondered how the twins were doing...and it looks like they are 'just fine'.

I hear our dads have been comparing notes on the cookbook. How fun!
