Fear the Trees

Sienna's first visit to Stanford is in the books and it was a glorious weekend.  The weather and sights were beautiful and we all enjoyed it immensely. 
 

We enjoyed Westin's fancy bathroom.
 

 
Dinner in the hotel lounge.

 
First day of Splash, walking to check-in.



Memorial Tower, a Stanford landmark.
 


Another landmark, centrally located on campus - the Memorial Church.








 
As you can see I snapped the church from many vantage points.
 
Here are even more sights....
 
 












 


Silly Sienna!
 






 
 Posing on campus.
 





Sienna plays Quidditch, a game created and played in the world of Harry Potter.
 


Stanford has a Quidditch team.  It's a thing.  No kidding.



 
What a great visit!  Can't help but jump for joy!

Happy Easter

It was a rise and shine morning as we attended 9 am Mass, with a departure time of 8:15.  Spenser delayed us a tad but we still made it in time to snag seats for us as well as our friends the Shanahans.

After church we headed to Filiberto's for breakfast burritos and then home for a few photos.



 



 



 
Photos are always fun.
 
Rob spent the rest of the day doing the taxes and I cooked an Easter meal of turkey, potatoes, corn, and rolls.  Thank you Butterball in a bag!

 
Happy Easter!
