Last Ski of the Season

This was our last time at Sierra. Rylee did a great job and even did a couple of runs with minimal help from Jon. No more strangling with the ski poles! Brody always wants to be out there so this time we put Rylee's skis on Brody and Jon held him most of the time down the hill. He LOVED it and wanted to go again! Jon said that all he was asking about was to go fast. Great job Brody, until next year!

Girl's Just Wanna Have Fun

The four of us girls organized a surprise overnighter for Mom. I told Mom that she needed to watch my kids while Jon and I had a get away weekend. The plot was set. She had no idea. At first plans got a little screwed up because she cancelled herself from work, which she never does, to watch the kids. So I made her sit around all day with Renee while everyone else was getting there and putting the finishing touches on everything. We decided to take her to Papillons for dinner. This is Jessica's favorite place to go. It is a very fancy french restaurant. We were there for almost 4 hours just talking and laughing. It was so much fun! Then we went back to Jessica's house for dessert and a girl's quiz. It was fun getting to know Mom as a young lady and reminiscing about the past. Great dessert Jess! We all slept over at Jessica's house and then woke up to a wonderful egg, bacon (as always) and cinnamon roll breakfast. YUM! After getting ready we went out to get our nails done.

I really liked it and shed a lot of tears.Afterwards, Mom took us to El Patio with the boys for some dinner! Thanks to all the girls! I love you all lots and we definitely need to do this again...with Brittany!Aimee and Renee were laughing so hard, this was hilarious!"Best thing about SISTERS is that I always have a FRIEND"

Easter Egg Hunt

Jon's fire department put on a fabulous pancake breakfast and easter egg hunt for all the kids. The pancakes were very good and had toppings from strawberries and blueberries to syrup and even chocolate chips...(we haven't had flour pancakes in a long time, so this seemed like a treat to me...not breakfast). There was even a bounce house there for all the kids to jump around and kill each other on."Engine"!The Easter Bunny even made an appearance being delivered in the fire engine, which all the kids loved, especially Brody...ok he really only liked the fire engine.Ready, set, GO!!!!They did great getting lots of candy for Jon and I to devour.Great job Brody! They both had a great time!
