March Madness 2008

I know I haven't been very good about blogging lately. But here is a quick month in review....

The kids have been enjoying playing in the backyard in the glorious spring weather. Collin has been teaching Jack to play football... or so he thinks.


The kids enjoyed an easter egg hunt with their cousins, and as usual, got more enjoyment out of the hunt than the eggs themselves.

Jack attended a "Pirate" birthday party for one of his friends and had a delightful time.


Collin earned his "Wolf" in Cub Scouts, along with 3 arrow points. He was thrilled. We are proud of him for working so hard. He takes it very seriously.

I already mentioned that we spent a few days at the cabin for Spring Break (and forgot the camera!).

Let's see.... what else? Jay celebrated his 30-something-th birthday. Collin finished the basketball season and started baseball. Mary learned to ride a 2-wheeler bike and is doing very well. Collin and Mary sang a special musical number in sacrament meeting with a few other children, and did a great job.

And I had an asthma attack! I have never had asthma before, but apparently this was a really bad year for allergies. But after a few weeks on 3 different medications (argh!!!) I'm better and extremely relieved. There is nothing worse than not being able to breathe!

Among other things, I have been keeping busy lately transferring old video tapes to DVD. It has been fun watching footage of when I was a kid. I have been having some good laughs.
