Fab Grad!!

Brian thinks it's silly to make a big deal about graduation when he still has 7 years left but I say we need to celebrate each milestone along the way. He graduates at 12:30 on May 15th and we're throwing a SWIM PARTY at his parents house from 3:00-you're tired of us or the food is gone or it's too cold to swim.

Easter Festivities

Easter celebrations this year included:

  • Dying eggs with cousins and Grandma and Papa Pew (parents got to have a date night)
  • Trip to the Ostrich Farm (see Carolyn's blog for pics and details) Way fun! Luke didn't want to leave.
  • Easter egg hunt in Papa Pew's big back yard.
  • DeWitt Easter egg hunt (including adults this year) at the chapel with the annual Easter Egg Bash (again, Carolyn's a better blogger so check out her blog for more info).


My Mom always made us wear big foofy dresses for Easter Sunday to I decided to pass on the torture (ahem) tradition to my kids. Luke thought it was very exciting to have a white shirt and tie like his Daddy and his Papa. And for those of you who don't know I'm a big yard saler, I got Brooklyn's Easter dress for $5.

Sparks over Spring Break

My sister came with her family to AZ for their Spring Break. We went to Amazing Jakes (as usual) and out to McCormick Railroad Park in Scottsdale. Luke is still asking to go to the Choo Choo every day.

Viva Las Vegas!

While in Henderson for Brian's interview, we stayed at Circus Circus for a great deal and they have a theme park called Adventuredome that Luke loved - and they were lenient about his height, too. We also went to the M&M factory and to see the light/water show at the Bellagio.
