The Zoo!

A little while ago my brother, his wife and my little nephew came for a visit. We visited five different beaches in five days, found tons of different sea shells, went to several different nature centers and somehow found time to go to the zoo. Whew!

The kids loved the zoo and the animals, but their favorite thing was the water fountains.

Backing-up to Easter

We had a great Easter! My parents came down from PA and we got to hang out and have a lot of fun. We had an incredible Easter service at church and an amazing baptism party at the beach - 97 people got baptized on Easter Sunday!

The kids enjoyed painting Easter eggs and of course, getting their Easter baskets. We waited until a couple of days after Easter for the baskets because Caleb has come to the conclusion that if you wait until stuff is 50 - 75% off, you can get a lot more for your money. Smart kid! We normally don't do 'presents' in the Easter baskets, but we found such great deals on different things this year we decided to forgo most of the candy and get other treats.

What A Mess!!!

So I know I haven't posted in a looooong time, but I kind of have a decent excuse or two for it. In addition to out-of-town guests, camping trips and just being crazy busy, a month and a half ago my computer, very unexpected, died. It was determined that the logic board was fried beyond repair and the mourning process of losing a lot of my files took several days. lol

After a couple of visits to the Apple Store and their website, we determined that we were going to have to custom order a new Mac since I needed certain items in the computer to do my job. After several mistakes with the order, I finally got the computer delivered only to have to leave for a job in Atlanta two days later. When I got back a week later, I got it all hooked up, installed more drives and loaded all my software. Whew!

In the mean time, the kids kept growing, playing and acting silly - and I have pictures to prove it! I plan on spending the next week or two catching up on the blog and trying to get myself back in the routine of blogging on a regular basis.

Stay tuned!
