This past weekend marked the Goose's very first Easter. My family (minus the Seal) came down for the weekend to join us and Mark's family for all of the fun. This was the first meeting of the cousins so we were anxious to see how they'd react to each other. There was some skepticism on Dom's part and complete obliviousness on Makenna's but all in all they seemed to hit it off just fine. The were set to face off in the egg hunt on Sunday so we joked earlier that week about hiding an egg in her footie to see if she could find it to train for the big event. Although she didn't put up much of a fight (she slept in someone's arms on the couch while Dom cleaned up), she did do some pretty exciting things that weekend - like make it through 99% of her first mass, and. . . well, that's it I guess. If you ask any of the grandparents they'll say they were the first to get her to smile, but without any *credible* witnesses we had to wait to put that one officially on the books until Tuesday.
Some of the goings on:
