Easter and Indiana

We spent Easter in Caldwell with Austin's family and their Easter tradition isn't chocolate and eggs galore, but it's FRUIT!! WONDERFUL FRUIT!!! We woke up Easter morning to this beautiful display on the table and we ate breakfast....fruit. Of course there was some chocolate, but not as much as I have had in Easter's past.

Markie and Paulie, our sister from France. I love these girls!! This was outside on the deck where we ate Easter dinner and started our small egg hunt.
This is the whole family before we took off down the road.

Jeff, me and Austin. Jeff and Austin have been best friends since they have been little boys. I inherited him, too. It's okay, I guess....no really, he is a lot of fun and we are going to miss him a lot.

Jeff has separation anxiety.
Okay, now these are pictures of our apartment in Indiana. We didn't bring a ton of stuff with us, so it's kind of empty. However, I want you to notice the quilt on the bed. My Grannie Oberg made this for us for our wedding. I love it! Of course, it had to be purple...just like the baby blanket she made me MANY years ago.
This is the kitchen/dining room, taken from the doorway of the bathroom.
The living room, taken from the hallway

The hallway, with doorways into the laundry room, bathroom, and bedroom.

It's nothing too exciting, but it's a nice place and it's plenty big. Austin is always gone working, which I'm not complaining about, but it's hard to get pictures of us together in our new place. Hopefully I can get some pictures this weekend and make another post of those next week. All in all, we are loving it here and I'm excited to have a great summer!

Hey Violet. Found you through Aubrey. Love the idea of fruit at Easter. We eat a lot at Easter, but have never done such a neat display. Is Austen selling security systems, or something? I'll be missing your good help.
