What a week! We spent spring break at Hilton Head Island, SC. The weather was great and we enjoyed eating, shopping, bike riding and the beach. With Grace along, it wasn't terribly relaxing, but we did laugh a lot!

We got home Saturday afternoon, saw "Les Mis" in Cleveland that night, and then it was time on Sunday for the big party! Grace was so cute in her Grace shirt and tutu. She loved the cake (and so did we...thanks to Lynn Hackett..she makes the best cake in the world!). Was nice to have family and friends here to celebrate. 3 of Tara's college friends were here...including Lisa's husband who surprised her with an early return from Afghanistan!

Please keep Tara in your prayers...as I type this she is at an Urgent Care. She is really having problems with her Grave's Disease. She isn't sure that her terrible pain is from the disease, her meds, or something else. Any way you put it she is miserable. I am praying for a solution/treatment.
