Snow on the plum blossoms....It's been awhile...and I apologize for those of you who follow faithfully. If you're not on facebook, then consider joining, as I do post a blip or two there every few days. The lengthy stuff (and of course pictures) is always here though!
February 21st--we headed to the O'Hara's after church to celebrate Kim & Declan's birthday. It was a great time of fellowship, as we really miss our get togethers now that we are back to work & school. Makes getting together difficult. It was extra fun, being that they rented a cotton candy maker, and the kids (OK..we adults too) loved it!February 27& 28th took the kids to a Winter Youth Retreat with our church Youth Group. They used the newly (still in progress) Calvary Creekside, and both had a really good time.
Bill & I spent Friday night getting pizza with Charlie and watched "Down Periscope" one of our favorites. Saturday morning I had to work, and Bill & I had a date as it was my bosses 50th birthday party. We had a really nice dinner at Oregon Electric Station, enjoyed Nate & Katie's company as well, and headed home for a quiet evening.March 6th & 7th--This last week has been filled with lots of organizing, and for Bill, finishing projects for school, lots of homework, and getting ready for finals next week. We did take a break and meet with Harry & Flo for lunch. It was great visiting with them--we've missed seeing them at Washburne, but they are loving being retired. They miss the park, but not the politics that went with being park hosts. Ugh, took the camera, and didn't take one picture! Our plan was to take our time coming home, and stop along the way since it was such a beautiful day, but homework was calling, Ryan & Hunter wanted to get home to hang out (they were bored) and for some reason, being on a ride with Mom & Dad is no longer fun!
This next week will be filled with lots to do, as we get ready to head to Michigan...as well as get things lined up for the kids, who will have Jenny here with them. Thankfully, she consented to staying with them, so we didn't have to ship the three dogs off anywhere. The kids can stay in their normal routine, and take care of the dogs. It's not that easy to find someone to watch THREE BIG GERMAN SHEPHERDS!! Really looking forward to a trip with just Bill & I...been a long time. If you're in MI...and have the 20th open...feel free to stop by Bill's folks new place in Ypsi anytime after 2pm to say hi. I know we won't get to see everyone in the short time we're there, but hoping to catch a lot of you this way...as we will also be heading to OHIO to see my grandparents and family there. Call either of us on our cell's....
Until next update.....enjoy the pics of our snowy morning. Sixty five on Saturday, and snow today! It is now 48 and all the snow is gone, but it was pretty this morning!
