Time Flies...

April 6, 2010

April already!  Where has this year gone? It's been almost a whole week since my last post.
Let's see...what have we done around here?
Baseball game last Thursday: Tommy took a ball to the face as catcher.  He stood up spitting blood and I FREAKED out.  Turns out he was OK.  By Saturday it was so swollen he looked like he had a mouthful of sunflower seeds.  He also had a great looking bruise. 
Friday the kids were home from school.  I had a porch party Friday afternoon.  As always, it turned into a mini-block party.  Fun.  I made my now famous White Sangria.  Yum. 
Saturday was another free day.  No sporting events!  We went to dinner at ACC.  The Club was getting ready for the Sunday Easter Brunch and had the most amazing flower arrangements I have ever seen.  They were about 4 feet tall.  Seriously. 
We went to Easter Vigil service at St. Barnabas.  I decided that I am definitely an Episcopalian.  I felt right there.  Now if that church wasn't so gi-normous, I'd be completely happy. 
Easter Sunday: brunh & egg hunt at Kathy & Poppy's.  A nap.  Great supper with the Halters, Hahnenkratts, and Bettins. (more on that later...with pictures).
Monday another day with no regularly scheduled events.  How'd that happen?  This was the first post-lent day, which meant SHOPPING!  New shoes for Grace and I.  One for her and one for us to share ...yes we can now share shoes. 
Tuesday: dentist for the kids.  No cavities.  Yea!  And Tommy didn't damage his teeth in the aforementioned baseball incident.  Another baseball game (won!) without injury this time.  Basketball and drama practice for Grace (as if she needs to practice being dramatic!).
 Now you are up to date with the Halterhome.
