My brother-in-law returned from Iraq last week. Tonight we had him, my sister and their three kiddos over for dinner and egg dying. By the end the kids had lost interest and the adults were all trying to see what we could do with a few wax crayons, rubber bands and some creativity. For dinner we ate his favorite penne pasta meal with homemade tomato sauce and parmesan-ish fried chicken, homemade focaccia bread and brownie sundaes. When he left over a year ago I promised him this meal upon his return - I think he earned it.

Dinner sounds yummy! Props to your b-i-l, my husband spent 7 months in Iraq in 2004/05, so I know that gig.

Please tell him, "Welcome home. And thank you."

I hope you have a beautiful Easter together.
