Days with the Dorans

  Happy Easter!!! It was a bit different (obviously). We did church on the computer and got to see Mike! The kids opened their Easter Baskets (and had a hunt- see video below). Marty got to see his cousin on facetime! AND WE SAW THE DRAPALS IN PERSON!!!  (outside in their garage)

My folks do an egg hunt and each kid has their own color egg and all the stuff in their buckets are the same color too! My kids have their same "Santa" colors and Maddy gets purple and TZ gets orange!
