Overdue Willis Update

So ... we've fallen behind a bit on the blogging front. I began several posts that I never finished. Others I never even started -- although I thought about it. In any case, it is now more than three months since spring break with nary a peep from "The Willis Way."

Today, the situation is rectified, at least somewhat.

Below is a reverse-chronological, mostly pictoral, update of Willis family happenings over the last 3+ months. (Of course, it ends at the 4th of July -- always behind...)

Spring Break

As Easter was early this year, so was the kids' spring break. I worked the entire week (and then some) but Jen managed to fill the days with trips to Butler Ochard's "Bunnyland," the county's one-day "spring break" agricultural fair (both with various cousins), and a metro-ride trip downtown to have lunch and take a stroll with Dad.
