HAPPY EASTER/ANNIVERSARY


Greetings everyone. Yes Happy Anniversary to Alex and I. Today makes it twelve years that we have been together. It is hard to believe that we have been together that long. It has been so nice to have him home for an anniversary. We really didn't do much since today is Sunday and also Easter. We went out to dinner last night with the kids. We just had a quiet night tonight with the kids watching movies.


Yesterday the girls had another soccer game. They have been improving so well. The field was really messy and muddy. They were all over the field trying to keep the ball away from the other team. Ashley was able to be the goalie again. She is really good. She was all over that ball. Her favorite thing to do was jump in the mud after the ball. She was a total mess after the game.

Our team lost but we did score a couple of goals.


After the game we had a neighborhood Easter egg hunt. All of the neighborhood kids were there. We had a lot of eggs to find. It was a lot of fun for the kids and some of us decided to make it a BBQ next year.


Alex has been doing well after his surgery. He wasn't able to watch TV or play on the computer. He slept most of the time and the rest of the time he was bugging me. It was really nice having him there to talk to and not have to compete with a game or movie. He still has a hard time seeing clearly but it will get better for him.


Well we hope that all is well with you and your families. We will talk to you all later. Take care.

Greetings

Well hello everyone. Can you believe it. I didn't wait months to update this. We seem to have a pretty good week. Ashley lost three teeth this last week. Two on the bottom and one on top. The tooth fairy around here kept for getting to take her teeth and leave money. Ashley was talking about charging the tooth fairy $20 for being late all the time. Alex finally cleaned out the garage these last two weekends. He even said that he enjoyed being out in the garage working. I was a little shocked about that. Sam is being her normal self. She wanted to put Ashley's last tooth under her pillow since the tooth fairy forgot to take it and also because her sister already got $2 for the last two teeth. I told her that the tooth fairy doesn't like to be tricked.

Ashley had her basketball party tonight. They had it with the older girls too. It was really nice. Ashley got another trophy. Her team tied for 3rd place. I don't know with how many other schools. She also received her team pictures so I guess I have to add that to her scrapbook.

Well it looks like the rest of the month is going to be filled with new adventures. The girls are going to be starting soccer this week. They should be having their first game this Saturday. Next Monday Alex will be having out patient surgery on his eyes so he won't need his glasses anymore. That means I get to have him home for a week while he recovers. At least he won't be on the computer the whole time. The girls and I are planning a trip to mom and dad's for spring break at the end of the month. I can't wait. I just want to see Melanie's kids.

Well we hope that all is well with you. I will try to keep this updated as best as i can. Take care and we love you all.
