Walhof Visit and Easter!!!!

Hailey and Makenna inside Cabot Elementary


It was a long dry spell without visitors for us out on the East coast, but on Tuesday it came to an end with the  Walhofs arriving from NW Iowa.  The kids were so very excited to see their cousins and everyone at school  knew that their cousins from Iowa were coming!
It was difficult for the girls to go to school for the next couple of days, but it was best for us to take Stephanie, Eric and the kids on a a tour of downtown Boston without our kids.
Makenna was up with the girls and walked them to school each day and at the end of the day their cousins were waiting eagerly outside of school for them.



The Public Garden and Freedom Trail tour was on Wednesday.  Thankfully the temps allowed us to take off our coats from time to time.
The second day of the visit Mike took them to the USS Constitution and Harvard Square.
 On Friday, our kids all had school off for Good Friday and so we packed everyone up for an overnight trip to Ogunquit, ME
 The Marginal Way is one of our family's most favorite spots in New England.  The kids love climbing the rocks and exploring the beaches.
 Damon and Carter found a cave in the rocks
 Our hotel was right along side of the Marginal Way with outdoor hot tubs that over looked the Atlantic Ocean.  (We could all use some sun!)

 When in New England, it is essential to have LOBSTER!
 The Atlantic was frigid, but they had to give it a try
 On Easter morning, we celebrated our risen Savior at our church that we have come to love and belong to here: Evangelical Baptist Church.


Thanks a bunch for coming Walhofs!!!!!!!
