Easter Weekend

I'm so behind on blogging so things might be out of order but I want to make sure I document what's been going on since the Spring.

We had a wonderful Easter weekend.  We spent Saturday morning at the Sumner/May house at their annual Easter egg hunt.  Jackson had a blast and can't wait till next year.  

Then in the afternoon, we headed down to Tacoma and had a great time on Ruston Way.  We went to the Japanese Garden and then walked around the waterfront.  The day ended with the best fish and chips around.

Then the Easter Bunny came on Sunday before church!  Here are some of the highlights:

We also had a very nice mellow Easter dinner with my mom and my sister, Michelle.  Overall, it was a great weekend!

Playing Fish with Grandma

My mom has been a huge help while I've been recovering from neck surgery.

They enjoyed fishing together!

January Birthdays!

We had so much fun celebrating Stevens, Clints and my birthday all together in January!  It's always fun to get together with family!

Thanks to Mom and Wendy for making wonderful dinner and dessert!

Here are a few pics of our get together:

My Dad

Today it's been 8 years that my Dad passed away.

I miss him so much.  I keep thinking it's going to get easier each year but it sure hasn't.  It feels like it was yesterday.

I'm so grateful to know that I will see him again. 

I wish he was here to see how happy I am, to meet my wonderful husband, for Jackson to know his Grandpa.  Days like these are hard....

I love you Dad!

Snow/Ice Storm

We got dumped on during January..

Jackson had fun being home from Montessori School for a whole week. He enjoyed playing in the snow and staying warm inside watching lots of movies while mom tried to get her work done.. It proved to be challenging...

We lost power for about 24 hours. We were very grateful to only be out for 24 hours. Some of our friends were out for 2-3 days. Buying a generator is on my wishlist this year...

I'm so bad at blogging!

I'm so bad at blogging. It always gets put on the back burner but I'm going to try to do a better job this year.

I figured while I'm recovering from neck surgery, I'd try to get caught up and stay current.

I haven't blogged since summer so a bunch of my posts might be out of order so bear with me as I work on getting caught up!
