Slacker

So I've been a major slacker this past month or so when it comes to blogging. My bad. Here is a brief overview of the last month:

- Amy is getting 3 new teeth... MOLARS! AHHH! That's been a new adventure because it didn't really phase her when her front teeth came in, but boy does it hurt her now. She has gone to random crying spats where there is no distracting or calming her for a little bit. Poor baby.

- Mike is deep into his first class for his Master's degree. He is getting his degree through ASU in Electrical Engineering. He just finished his first test and it was a tough one. We're glad that's gone and that we get him back now!

- I had my first Bunco game with a new group this month at my house! What a blast! I absolutely love Bunco and it's fun to get together with the girls more regularly so that we can have an adult night without kids!

- I'm super bummed that Easter is in March again... I think there's something seriously wrong with that. Easter is supposed to be in April. That's just the way it's supposed to be. Regardless, we have been putting up decorations and looking forward to some of the activities this weekend. We're going to the Easter Pageant on Friday, so if anyone wants to come along, let me know! We were hoping the Goodyear Spring Carnival-thingy would be this weekend too, but it's not until April (but they're still doing a Easter egg hunt 3 weeks after Easter... we thought that was odd). So we may go over to Avondale or Buckeye for one of their activities. Then we're off to Gilbert on Sunday for Easter dinner with my family. Aside from the activities, we're trying to make a special point to spend more time in the scriptures this week and reading conference talks and this month's special Easter Ensign. Inspired by my mother-in-law, we pulled all the pictures from Jesus' last week and resurrection from the Church artwork folder she gave us to hang around the house to remind us why we are celebrating Easter.

Well, that's about it. Other than that it's about the same ol' thing around here. I don't have any pictures from any of this, but I'll be sure to put some up after this week's festivities.

I can't spell so I had to delete my last comment. Sorry! I was about to call you about the slacking. I check your site daily. I'm glad Bunko was fun.

Hey there, its about time you slacker. J/k I love the post. I hear ya on the early easter thing....its just weird. I guess like only people in their 80's can say they've ever seen easter this early (or something like that). Anyway. Glad your back to blogging.

YEAHhhhhhhhhhhh...I missed you...even though I talk/see you every other day or so!!:) The blogging world has missed you! NOW...we want PICTURES! I agree about Easter...what the heck. All this time I thought some government entity chose the holiday dates...apparently Easter is chosen by the equinox or something?! Weird...but yeah for hunting for eggs in 3 weeks!!:) It'll be like a DELAYED Easter! First, we can focus on Christ and next we can hunt for the eggs!!:)
