As is the way of spending time with the Stapps, we had a project or two planned for our distinguished guests to accomplish. Matthew and Megan and even Lucy helped us rake and clean up our entire yard!!
Matthew and Zak had some male bonding of the typical Welch wrestling match- complete with tickling. Zak appearanlty couldn't hack the tickles-it turns out he gets totally furious and threw some almost not playful punches. For a Welch that only makes it more hilarious and fun to tickle again!!
Easter was a blast!! It was fridged freezing- as it should be if you love in Wisconsin-but it was clear skies and no snow on the ground!! Zak and Matthew his the eggs and then gave the boys a briefing on what an Easter egg hunt really is.
The grand prize was this box from grandma sue and a new pair of sandals. But the boys were so focused on eggs that they didn't even see the big boxes!!!
For lunch we went on a real walk around Appleton. It was awesome to be out in the chilly sunshine. We had a picnic on Lawrence university campus and then went to the paper discovery museum.
Gretel was blessed at church right on Easter Sunday. She wore a dress that was made to look like the one that I was blessed in. She was a perfect angel during the blessing and that night even slept 8 hours!! That was almost the biggest highlight if the week!!
We absolute loved having Matthew and Megan and Lucy at our house this week. We learned a lot from them and felt a lot of love together.
