Easter  | 
    
This past week was so wonderful. We had 
          a great visit from our friends Jen, Jesse and Anelle. It has been almost 
          a full year since we said goodbye to them in Almaty, Kazakhstan. We 
          had met while we were both adopting our little girls and became lifelong 
          friends as we endured hardships and joys together in a foreign country. 
          Anelle and Katie are just 13 days apart in age and had a wonderful time 
          running around the house, hunting for Easter eggs and going to the park 
          together. The mommies and daddies had a fun time recalling all the fond 
          memories of Kazakhstan and watching our girls play together. Jen and 
          Jesse brought the girls matching dresses so we had to make the most 
          of that photo opportunity. Don't forget to check page two 
          for more fun pictures with the Dresslers plus Katie's first Easter with 
          all her grandparents and two great grandpa's too!  |
