SNOW IN APRIL

Believe it or not the weatherman was right. When the shower was over, it was time to pick up Mimi from school, take her to the gym for practice. Then just before we started to head home, IT SNOWED! Enough already!!! Fortunately is didn't stick. However it snowed more up in the passes which kinda stressed Lisa out as they were getting ready to head up to Ellensburg to go to Nathan's deaf camp this morning. They wanted to make it safely through the passes. I do hope that they are having a good time. I will see Lisa again next Tuesday as Butch has a playdate with Sophie and Maggie their dogs. They are so sweet to take care of Butch while we are in China and California. Can you believe it?! In just a little over two weeks we'll be in China?! We have yet to get our TA's. Hopefully Norman will send them out next week. I tried calling his office these past few days to no avail.

THE FIRST OF THREE BABY SHOWERS

+

This past Wednesday the ladies of my special neighborhood gave me a baby shower. OMG! We had so much fun! There was so much food and drinks!!!! Great food too and oh so tasty delicious! My friend Julia loves to bake especially when life stresses her out. She is the one who made these beautiful lemon bars. Her husband Andre' is trying to get her to stop baking so much as he is trying out for the marathon that is coming up in a couple of months. Her cookies are to die for. Then there is Robin (the one with the scrunched up face), she was nice enough to pull all the weeds out of my backyard last week. Her son Bryce is just about the nicest kid you could ever meet. He's the kind you want to have your daughter take home to meet the parents. The reason why her face is scrunched is becaused we played this really fun game of "dirty diapers" where you had to guess what the poop was that was in the dirty diaper. Krista told me that her son Xander already said that he was going with Mimi to China. He so adores Mimi. The ladies did not want Mimi to feel left out so they all pitched in to buy Mimi a small inexpensive digital camera to take photos with when we get there. What a great bunch of gals I'm hooked up with! I love them all to pieces.
