Where oh where have we been!



Wow - Can't believe it's been a whoppin' 23 days since we last met. Way to long, but a lotta fun goin on.

Hmmmm, let's see...we left with Robb's birthday!

We spent Spring Break in the lovely state of Colorado. Visited with Friends and Family and did a lot of firsts. We played tourists for a couple days, played golf a couple of days, took in some skiing for a couple of days (our first time ever with the exception of Robb) and then did a bit of retail therapy. Loved skiing and can't wait to go again and next time I am going to try snow boarding. Great Spring Break was had by all.

Got home just in time for Easter. We were dying eggs at 10:00 PM Easter Eve. Everyone was wired from our long trip home, so we had some fun. Easter day was a quite one for us this year, unpacking, laundry, cleaning, and preparing to get back on track, but we made a nice family dinner and enjoyed each other's company. Oh yea, the Easter Bunny did find us at our new house.

Somewhere along the line, I turned the big 4-0! I went kickin and screamin'. We were in Colorado on the actual day. It was some great fun, surrounded by family and lots and lots of yummy food. I got lots of cards and phone calls from friends back home. Then last weekend went out on date night to celebrate again with lots of friends and their hubbies.....all I can say is.....GREATEST TIME EVER - OMG - We laughed so hard, drank way, way, too much (probably been 10 years since I have seen a room spin), danced anywhere our feet would take us, a little karaoke with our thumbs, and stayed out way, way, too late. Fun times - and can't wait to do it again. With friends like you all, I would do it again in a minute and am looking forward to the next 40 years. Not to bad being 40 - seriously, I have done some great things in 2009 and it's going to be a great year. What's next, maybe a tattoo, a piercing, how about blue hair? Who knows!

Been makin' a lot of changes and doing a lot of firsts in our house and it's been fantastic. Everyone is happier, enjoying life, and even getting some relaxing done. Not takin' things so serious. It's all good.

Jacob is on his first baseball team. He is doing so well and loves it. We went to the batting cages last week for some practice and he did so well. WOW! Where did that little boy go.

Isabella is on a soccer team and can't wait to go. She calls it her baseball practice. We have (2) rain out days, so she doesn't really understand it all as of yet....but she is excited.

Robb is busy working hard at work. He plays on the weekend with his lawn, in his garage, and now his boat. Yep, I said it....BOAT. It's a small family touring boat that his grandfather made in the 80's. New hobby and everyone can't be more excited.

As I mentioned above, I am doing well. Busy, busy, busy, makes me happy, happy, happy.

Stay tuned for all our adventures and firsts coming up.....cool stuff, birthday to celebrate, baseball games, soccer games, and more.
