No baskets, but we did bring bags! Each child was limited to finding 4 eggs, which was then turned in for prizes.

Saturday, April 4 was the annual egg hunt sponsored by the city recreation department. A cold, but sunny day brought out the hunters.

Kalanazoo Nature Center
Spring Break was the week of March 30, so we visited the Kalamazoo Nature Center on March 31. We had the place-inside and outside-all to ourselves. It was a cool, but sunny and dry day. We enjoyed the Interpretive Center and a few of the 1000+ acres of land to explore.
My, my, now who can guess what country Papi is pointing to?
Enjoying a few momemts in the tropical rainforest:
Lots of worker bees in there:
Miles of trails and a the roots of a big tree kept us entertained for a while:

The birthday boy with his ever-present Panda: (He's in pjs because we had his cake after a day out - and Momma here forgot the candles...)
Woo-hoo! Lots of gifts to open. This one is a scooter he had his eye on.
With his cousins and godparents Cody and Stephanie:

Fun With Friends
The kids had off for the MLK holiday and we met some friends at Chuck E. Cheese. We had a blast!
Jody and Elly were the only two of our group that sat still long enough for a photo!
On January 25, the Chinese School held a (Chinese) New Year party. Here are some of the Kindergardeners performing...our K girl refused to go on stage. So unlike the singer in the family!
Here's C. with the First Graders: great job! After all the performances were done, it was time to eat. We love our Chinese dishes...

A birthday and the zoo
Oops! Looks like I neglected this blog for a month! Sorry!
Getting assistance with the candles from my two best helpers:
Went to the zoo one Sunday afternoon to see the Winter animals get some treats:
Watching yaks destroy their treat: discarded Christmas trees.
A beautiful Bald Eagle looking regal on this cold day:
