Amalfi Coast Anniversary

The world's best husband surprised me with a getaway to the Amalfi Coast to celebrate our 11th anniversary.  We left the kids with our super friend, Kelly, and headed south on Saturday morning.
We began hiking the Path of the Gods right outside Positano. Chris hiked the entire trail in May of '11 and we took the kids along part of the other end of the trail in September '11.  Chris talked about "the steps" for a long time after his hike and I was ready for a challenge.

Here we go!

Out of breath and sweating like crazy already.  It was a gorgeous 70 degree day!

Taking a rest and enjoying the view of Positano down below.

We found this little water fall and decided to stop for a snack break before heading back down.

Cheers to 11 years!

I could eat breakfast here EVERY morning!

The best time to drive along the Amalfi coast - early Sunday morning.  Not much traffic and only a few cyclists to maneuver around.

Our next pitstop was for lunch and a little ceramic shopping in Vietri.

What a way to celebrate! Thanks for a wonderful weekend, honey!

Imagination Movers

The Imagination Movers came to Naples!  Their show on the Disney Channel was Emma's favorite to watch when she was in pre-school.  Navy Entertainment and MWR hosted this rockin' concert at the elementary school on Thursday afternoon.

Here's Emma getting a high 5 from her favorite mover, Scott.

 Dancin' up a storm!

 We waited around after the show and got a picture with the Movers.

 Camden was the luckiest fan - drummer Kyle gave him his drumstick!

Happy Easter 2013

Happy Easter!  The kids were up early and ready to see what Easter Bunny surprises were waiting for them.  

 Searching for all the hidden eggs.

Busy putting together new Legos from Grandpa and Nana.

 Dressed in our Easter finest and ready for church.

 Our parish's beautiful new San Damiano cross arrived on Good Friday. 

I had the privilege of seeing the original San Damiano cross in Assisi last month. :)

 The Easter celebration continued at the Klassen's brunch.  

Cheers to our wonderful hostess, Judi!

 Egg hunt time!

 A girl on a mission!

 Here is one of Emma's eggs with a blue sticker.

 Cheering on the egg hunters. 

One of these years we're going to have a sunny warm Italian Easter!

 Orion and Emma :)

 Still searching for those red sticker eggs.

 A golden egg!

As soon as we got home from the Eggstravaganza on Saturday, Emma dumped out all her candy onto the dining room table.  She sorted and tallied all her loot. :)

After lunch, it was time to dye eggs!
