April update


It's hard to believe we're heading into the last week of April already. Only two more months until our vacation, I can't wait...can you tell? The weather here is so up and down this time of year and it gets frustrating!

We had a nice Easter weekend, celebrating resurrection day! On saturday we had an easter egg hunt and dinner with the DeLattre side of the family. Joelle found 17 eggs, won the "grand prize" and a total of $13 and lots of candy. Caden found 12 eggs, and Cole got 2. He was more interested in crawling in the grass than picking up eggs. The kids also had a visit from the Easter Bunny, which was a surprise to all of us!

On Sunday morning, they looked for eggs at my parents' house, went to church, then had dinner with the family, including my grandma (the kids call her GiGi), and Aunt Carissa and Tim. We came back home on monday.

On thursday before Easter, Homer drove with my brother to myrtle beach to help him pack up his furniture that was still in his house there. Homer drove back to PA on friday, so he spend lots of time in the car those 2 days!

My scrapbooking night this past weekend was a blast. There were 8 of us...we ate amazing homemade soup, salad, bread, and cheesecake (I made that); we laughed hysterically, and stayed up past 3am scrapping and talking. I wish we could do it once a month instead of once a year.

Mary Kay career conference was fabulous last month. My unit members left with new goals and excitement and have been doing great! I'm excited to have lots of new consultants to work with! I love what I do.

Joelle and Caden have only 2 weeks left of "cubbies" at church for this year. next year Joelle will move up to Sparks. she will be in kindergarten! We registered her for the Alliance Academy, at our church. There are 8 kids registered for her class so far. We are very happy to have this option for her.

Preschool goes through the end of May. Next week I'm going with their class to see a play. Should be fun!

Please pray for my sister Kristen and her husband Jimmy, he leaves for Iraq (again) this Friday.

That's all i can think of right now! Until I find time to write again...
