Happy Birthday Jennifer & Happy Easter



Wow...it is almost Jennifer's 26th birthday...tomorrow, April 14th. Happy birthday to my sweet daughter. ANd it is time for our annual trek to my parents house in White Salmon, WA for Easter. It is the one time a year we get to see my brother and his family. We did get to see them 2 times last year, as we celebrated mom and dad's 50th anniversary and all got together for that. We all just seem to live our busy lives and don't make the time to do it. It sure seems to hit me more now that we lost Mel's mom. They always say it is sad that it takes something like that to make you realize what you are missing in your lives at times.

I am also very excited to see my sister, Pam and Niece, Aimee. They are coming down from Canada. I do talk to them on the phone, but that just isn't like getting to see them and visit late into the night.

We always celebrate the spring birthdays, and have a BBQ on Saturday, & color eggs, and take the kids to the park for the annual Easter egg hunt...so I know it will be lots of fun. I just LOVE being all together for the holiday.

Mel is going to come to Mom and Dad's on Saturday. Then his brother, Ronald, is going to come and pick him up Sunday and go back with him to Lincoln City to help on the house some more. He has been a big help and is also good moral support for Mel. We appreciate all that everyone has done to help us. Jared and Dennis are going over next weekend to try and help get the end siding done. That will be a big relief.

I hope everyone has a wonderful Easter.

Til Later...
