THIS AND THAT

Happy Birthday to Noah who is 12 today - one year away from being a teenager! Miles celebrated his 11th birthday last Wednesday.

Saturday night we had the pleasure of attending a fundraiser for the Downers Grove Christian School which is where Jason and Janice's boys go to school. It was a fun evening and we even knew a few people who we have met over the 8 years of going to the annual Grandparents Day program. It's hard to believe that Zac will be graduating this Spring and heading to high school next year.

Sunday morning we went to church with Jerry's nephew Steve and his wife Robin then out to lunch with them. We try to keep in touch with them as much as posssible as he is Jerry's only direct-line relative. It is always good to see them and catch up on their lives.

We've had to learn a little patience with our remodeling as we have completed all we can do and have been waiting for a couple weeks on the "professionals" to come and do the tiling and carpet. They should begin their work later this week - finally!!

We're glad Spring is here and are hoping to get outside soon and spruce things up a bit.

Thanks, Ada, for breaking the blog silence. Where are Cleve, Maria, Cathy, Nog Blog (who does well in writing), Angela, Carol, Linda, Melissa, etc., etc? Is there such a thing as plural plurals?

Spring has sprung; Bradford pear tree blossoms are past, but wild cherry trees are in gorgeous array.
Daffodils are past, but tulips are out.
Lynn got a new toy today--a riding lawn mower and the yard looks great tonight. The mower we had in Decatur caught fire a few weeks before we moved. He's also spaded a small patch for a garden; the ground here is not as hard and impossible as it was in Decatur. So we are looking forward to a few fresh veggies.

So glad somebody finally posted something! I would have, but absolutely nothing has been happening worth posting. Glad you had such a good trip.
