Easter Sunday

The grandchildren are hunting Easter eggs in the backyard. Noah and Morgan have a little help from their parents. K.K. dashes from place to place to get as many eggs as possible.

See all the eggs.

The children get a special present from their great-grandmother.

Morgan and K.K. play with their Barbies.

Happy Easter!

Three generations: Grandpa, Noah and Dad.

Spring Opener

Eighty-seven bikers came out on a blustery day to participate in the Cincinnnati Cycle Club's Annual Spring Opener bicycle ride. Even though the temperature was 40 degrees, the wind blowing from the north made the temperature feel like 21 degrees!

Here is part of the group of 55 riders that rode the 50 mile route. Even though 'short-cuts' were built into the route, this hearty group rode the entire route! In the background is the renovated Hughes Barn.

The Barry Rosenfeld Memorial quilt was hung inside the Hughes Barn. Standing next to the quilt are the seamstresses and the artist who designed twelve of the panels.

Eating and sharing stories after the ride.

Upon their return, riders said that they were hoping for hills to break the wind.

The twins...

Here are Phil and JoAnn's twins; born on February 25. Thomas Edward is on the left; Rose Catherine is on the right. Thomas weighed in at six pounds, twelve ounces (19.5 inches long) and Rose weighed in at seven pounds, nine ounces (20.5 inches long). Rose was born at 9:02 a.m.; Thomas was born a minute later. Thomas looks a lot like his dad in this picture...
Check out the crocheted baby blankets in the background. Where have we seen those before? :-)
