In the middle of March, the girls and I drove up to my parents' house on a Friday evening to visit with my brother, Fr. Brian. As you may recall, he is currently serving as a chaplain in the Air Force. Last July through January, he was deployed to Qatar, and I had not had the chance to see him since he got back to his home base in Omaha. Not long after he came back from Qatar, he received new orders: he was being moved to Germany and he was to report there April 1st. So I was glad the girls and I were able to see him before he left.

| On Saturday, we had a big meal together. All of my siblings and their families were there. |
 |
| While the bigger kids went off exploring, the little girls got Fr. Brian to play with them. |
 |
| I found out they were playing "Zombie." |
 |
| Run, girls, run! |

| Game over, the girls went to play on the see-saw. |
