April Trip to Cincinnati

 In April, when Anna was 2 months old, I took her to Cincinnati to meet the rest of the family.  

She traveled well...she either slept or was awake and happy for most of the flight time.  :)

Anna loved getting to spend some QT with her Nana!  

  

We got the chance to spend some time with "not-so-big" Willie.  He was our cat from around 2003 until we moved to San Diego in January 2000.  Since then he's lived with Mom and Dad.  He's probably pretty old at this point (got him as an adult cat).  He's recently gone blind and is having other health problems, so I was very happy to get to spend some time with him while he's still with us.  

For Easter we went to Jeannie and Frank's house for brunch.  They had an amazing spread and it was fun to watch their daughter, Lia, and June collect easter eggs in the yard.

Really this trip was about spending time with family.  So we got in as much of that as we could.  Even Gogo held Anna!  

Cincinnati in the Spring is beautiful!  We enjoyed an afternoon at the Krohn Conservatory where they were having their annual butterfly show.  This year it featured the butterflies of Costa Rica.  It was awesome!  

Colleen and I also took a quick trip to the zoo on one of our last days.  The tulips were stunning!  We did see a few animals also, but the tulips really stole the show!

On our final night in town we had dinner with Andy, Colleen and June.  Loved getting to spend so much time with these guys.  They are such a fun family!  

Here we attempted a photoshoot of June and Anna wearing the same dress.  Unfortunately we timed it right when Anna was ready to go down for a nap.  :)
