I got put on call tonight for work, which isn't really a bad thing.  I get to stay home and relax since I was up late last night having a blast with some friends here at the house.  We had a fun mini girls night we hope to make a monthly tradition!  I have work Thursday and Friday night.  I hope the weather stays decent so I can plant my garden this week!

It's been a few weeks...

Since I last blogged three weeks ago we have been a little busy which I guess is why there wasn't any time for blogging!  I'll give you a quick run down on what's been happening and what's coming up next in our lives!

  • Celebrated Easter with Matt's family
  • had a nice quiet Easter Sunday at home together
  • i started my training in the O.R and totally love it!
  • had a couple bar-b-que's with some friends
  • worked!
  • cleaned the yard
  • prepped the garden
  • hauled some scrap metal
  • did some shopping
  • i got sick with what we thought was strep but thankfully just a bad sore throat
  • tyler started t-ball
  • kylie started softball
  • took Karissa for pre-school screening, but she is too young and not ready to sit still!
  • i painted my kitchen cabinets
  • got to visit with my sis in from San Fran for a weekend!
  • put up a clothes line
So I'm sure there are things I'm forgetting, but just quickly thinking back that's kind of what we have been up to!  What's coming up?  Well as always...there is work, work and more work!  I've got to decide what class I am going to take this fall.  The kids just have a month of school left to go!  We are making our plans for our summer vacation to Disneyland and Sea World in June.  I'll add some recent pictures later on tonight along with my menu for the coming week!  Hope to hear from everyone soon!

Egg Coloring

Last night we sat down after dinner and colored our eggs!  Kylie and Tyler each got a dozen a piece and Kennedy and Karissa split a dozen between them.  I wasn't overly happy with the color, as they weren't as vibrant as I think they should have been. I used vinegar in some of the colors and lemon juice in others to see if they showed any different, but they all turned out a little too pastel, but anyway it was still fun.  So we have a few dozen hard boiled eggs to gobble up which probably won't take too long at our house!  A few pictures...and Kennedy loves to say cheese anytime we tell her we are taking a picture, so notice her CHEESE face!
