Spring Break!!!!!

We've had a busy and FUN spring break so far. So fun that I asked for another day of vacation, and now will go back on Thursday instead of Wednesday!!!

Sunday we had a family gathering to celebrate birthdays: my brother-in-law Mark's from January, the twins (March 15) and my sister-in-law Sandy's (March 17-yes St. Patty's Day). We met at On The Border and had a wonderful time:










We then celebrated the twin's birthday at PF Chang's on Monday night (their actual 19th birthday)

Kaleb with his birthday "cake"

Kaitlin with her birthday "cake"

Later that evening with their actual cake
This was all after having their birthday breakfast at The Beacon. Aren't they cute?


We took Brandon's car in for service yesterday morning. I drove it on Saturday and the steering wheel was shaking terribly. He ended up needing a front end alignment and four new tires. YES - more money! It's always something around here. He heads back to Manhattan tomorrow, so we wanted to make sure his car was ready for the trip. The twins will be here until Sunday. SO enjoying having them home. It will be quiet and lonely when they leave!

VACATION

On vacation for a few days (return to work on Thursday)...here's where I wish I was... I plan on enjoying some peace and quiet...and possibly, if I get motivated, getting some cleaning and organizing done in the office area of the basement. We'll see if that motivation arrives (it's not here yet)... Good news for Park City residents...recycling came to town the first of January. We are charged $4.00 month (added onto our already high water bill); but it has lowered the price of our trash pickup. The company P.C. contracted with has a much lower price than the company we use. Our company matched the price, so our trash bills went down (considerably) AND we get to recycle. We can recycle almost all our plastics, newspapers, cardboard, aluminum cans, cereal boxes, glass, motor oil, etc. We've got two big bags to set out tomorrow. Just doin' our part for the environment. We are without hot water right now...our hot water heater needs a new thermo-couple? It's a fair

Fun times with Lenore

While Lenore and Daniel were here, she had a library book panel at the Johnson County Library in Overland Park. So, on Tuesday afternoon, November 27th, Lenore, her friend Rachelle and I took off for KC. We had a great time visiting on the way up and back, and I didn't get tired at all driving! We stopped for a quick bite to eat at Arby's and filled up with gas at QT before heading to the library. It was an interesting panel featuring Bethany Hagen, author of Landry Park, which comes out next year; Gennifer Albin, author of Crewel, which was released a few months ago; and Lenore, whose book will be released on January 15. Here's the panel: Me & Lenore: Lenore & Rachelle: Gennifer, Bethany and Lenore
