Beautiful days are here!





Here are a couple of pictures from last weekend. It has been such a nice week that we've been able to spend time doing things outside. Last weekend Evie and Jordan helped Brent in the yard. We got our flower beds looking groomed again. Yesterday, we had a fun cookout with our neighbors. They barbequed ribs on their new grill.
We also had some excitement of another kind this week. The Marines have been on campus training for when they go to Iraq. They've been practicing landing their HUGE helicopters. Yesterday was the big one...they dropped Marines out of the helicopters and had a mock-mission. They raided the old gym and practiced taking the "bad guys". It was really intense. We got to watch it all, but we couldn't take any pictures. We did take a few of the helicopters earlier in the week. One day the cadets were even able to get a look inside them. Hopefully, I'll get those off the camera soon. Hope everyone else is having a beautiful Friday, too. Oh, and a happy belated birthday to my brother!

Happy Easter!

Hope the Easter bunny was good to you! We're enjoying our nice COLD Easter weather. Church was packed. We sang in the choir for both services, and Brent and Alan played cello for the Halleluiah Chorus. We're now waiting to go have lunch, then it'll be a relaxing evening. Dusty will be glad to not have to go into his crate any more after that! Here's our Easter picture for this year:

I PASSED ! ! ! !



Yep, that's right....I just have to shout it out. I FINALLY passed the Praxis II !

I am so relieved, yet it's going to take a while to set in that I don't have to continually worry about it anymore! Hope all is well with you! Enjoy your Thursday.....I'm taking Brent out to dinner tonight to celebrate!
