Finally, having our home set up with a bit more than the boxes in our living room and the backpacks we've lugged 5,000 miles in a few months, we thought it wise to have a gathering.
Dear friends from San Francisco trekked out to Sacramento and our local family wore their Sunday egg hunting best. The kids arrived and promptly tore through the house, finding all but a few eggs in a matter of 20 minutes. The last 4 were hidden insanely well to drive them a little nuts for the ultimate prizes. We had a baby version for Astrid with eggs laying in plain sight. Astrid had practiced all week at home and at daycare, so was primed to fill her basket to the brim and then find a seat to enjoy her goldfish crackers, raisins and a couple of chocolates.
Jen prepared a decadent feast of Greek and American favorites. A giant succulent ham, deviled eggs, spanakopita, baklava, greens, potato salad and plenty of beverages to go around.

It was a wonderful start to our time in Sacramento and we couldn't be happier to have so many wonderful friends nearby.
