Spring Break 2009

I'm finally updating. It has been a long and busy week. We spent part of Spring Break in Horseshoe Bend, Arkansas, visiting Fred's mom and step-dad (Grandma and PawPaw Larry). They live on a lake so there was much fun to be had. Fred's 92 year old grandfather also lives in Horseshoe Bend. Jonathan especially enjoyed playing with cousins, Cody and Matthew. Fred's step-sister, Dawn, has boys that are just the right age for Jonathan. One is slightly older and one is slightly younger than him. So, it works out great.

We enjoyed playing games and visiting Grandma and PawPaw Larry's bowling alley. On St. Patrick's Day, we managed to work in a boat ride and an early Easter egg hunt with the cousins. Grandma usually doesn't get to see the kids on Easter, so she decided we should celebrate early. The boys followed the Easter egg hunt with a pizza picnic. Mollie (our little dog) and I were the only girls that got to join them. We were honored.

Thanks, Grandma, PawPaw Larry, Grandpa, Aunt Dawn, Cody and Matthew for a wonderful visit.
