New post...Finally!

HI Everyone,
I have been having trouble with this website. My posts are not showing up. I think I might have to upgrade soon. When I do, I will let you all know the new address.

So, what have we been up to.

March 15 - Matt's Birthday
We had plans to go to one of our favorite restaurants in Renton "Melrose Grill" but we all got the stomach flu. It was terrible and poor Matt got a sick family for his birthday. He was a trooper though. He took care of all of us and a few days later, got it himself. YUK.

March 28th - Hosted Ladies Night
Every month the ladies in the neighborhood get together to socialize, eat and of course Drink. I hosted a cocktail party with my Mother-in-law Debbie. We had a great time. Drank Mojitos and Cosmos and all the ladies brought appitizers. Then we topped the night off with a game of "The Price is Right". Good times.

April 5th - My Dads birthday
We celebrated at my parents house. He didn't want any attention but we all had a nice time.

April 10th - My Neice Naomi turned 11. She was in California for her birthday and she had a great time. She wanted only books for her birthday. She has read every Harry Potter book 3 times. She is now onto the twilight series. I can't believe what a good reader she is. She started reading early and just hasn't ever stopped.

April 11th - Neighborhood Easter Egg hunt (pictures above)
Every year the neighborhood has a HUGE Easter egg hunt the day before Easter. This year it rained a little but the kids didn't notice, they had a great time. We live in such a great neighborhood. Everyone is so friendly and all of the kids are great friends.

April 12th - Easter Sunday
The Easter bunny left a scavenger hunt for the kids upon my request. They got so much candy the day before I just could imagine them having any more. We're talking more than Halloween. Crazy!!! Anyway, the kids were lead all through the house and found clues hidden inside of the eggs. The last egg led them to their Easter baskets that were filled with their favorite things. The LOVED it. I will be making sure the Easter bunny does that every year for them.
Next we went to my parents for Easter brunch and more egg hunting. The Eggs were filled with change. The kids made out with about $10 a piece. It was great. We still haven't taken the money to the coinstar to exchange for bills but the kids will be able to take their money to the toy store to pick out some new toys.
By the end of the day we were back at our house. Tom and Debbie had just returned from Arizona where they had been for a week. They brought all kids of goodies for us and the kids. They got lunch boxes filled with all kids of treats. We had a great dinner and talked about Tom and Debbie's vacation and what we had done while they were away.
Easter was over and clean up began. Damn you Easter grass.

April 22nd - My Birthday
We celebrated my birthday on Sunday. Debbie made me Moroccan Chicken Pie. My favorite! And we had a good time.

I hope all of you have been doing well. I am so sorry for not posting in a while. I'll let you know if the web address changes.
Take care,
Carolyn
