I'm baaaack...

I know, that leaf I turned over flipped right back:) I always have a good excuse. This time (I know I've used this one in the past) it's school. I'm still a college student and I am once again doing clinicals. That means I work for free. It should be a 40 hour work week but I've managed to squeeze it down to 25-30 hours a week. But on top of my other class, my real job and my family that is plenty. So something had to give. This was one of the many things that "gave". But here's a quick update on life as we know it...
The first week of April we surprised Josh with a trip to Disneyland. He had never been before. He thought we were taking a taxi or train to Portland. The plane ride alone was a great surprise. When we got to the airport we "ran into" our friends and we announced the surprise. It was great. We spent our first day looking around Hollywood. Baylee and I watched them film part of the new Wonder Woman. We spent a day at Universal Studios, we talked Josh into going on the Mummy ride, he's not a fan. We headed down to Sea World, Chris's favorite CA park, and had a great time there for a day. Sunday we played on the beach and swallowed alot of salt water. We finished off the trip with three days at Disneyland. It was a fun trip. Chris swears he's never going back but we'll see...

I spent a weekend mid-April with my best high school girlfriends; Kallee and Stephanie. We were spoiled in downtown Boise with massages, food and shopping. It's so great to have friends you've know for 30 years, who you can see after a year and pick up right where you left off. Love these girls!

Easter was a nice surprise. I got called off from the hospital the morning of. We hadn't accepted offers for Easter dinner thinking I wouldn't be around but at the last minute I was home. Hurray! We had a crazy easter egg hunt before church and the annual family pics after church followed by a yummy dinner and relaxing evening together.



The kids are busy, our weeks and weekends are packed. Baylee justed finished playing her sophomore year of tennis. She's been named JV team captain for next year. Kaity is wrapping up her marimba performances. They are an amazing group. For a sneak peek at her performance go here: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JS1KdmLHdXc
Josh is playing his first year of flag football. Chris is of course his coach. He's having a blast and wears his mouth guard all the time. It drives the girls nuts!
You are up to date, life is good!
