Cruise

Tania and I got back Sunday afternoon from our cruise. We had an amazing time!! We got to just relax and have such a great time, but we also got to try out a lot of new things that we have never tried before. We ate like 7 meals a day which included room service every night :) Watched the different performances that the cruise put on every night. We tried Bingo for the first time and won on our first game! Learned a country line dance. Played some slots... I lost ten bucks, Tania won a few bucks. That's just a tad bit, but I don't want this to go on too long.  Hopefully Tania will blog a bit later on this week!

Here's a pic of the boat while docked in the Bahama's.

New ink, surprise picture paper, and time...

So today after working what seemed like forever at fernhill, I picked up ink for our printer so I could print some doccuments for our cruise next week. When I get home I discover I get 50 4x6 picture paper for free with the black color duo I got! Since I haven't gotten any wedding pics developed I decided to print a few. Thinking it would be a poor quality job I started with one an to my surprise it was better quality then when I get it developed at the store! Then I went crazy and I only have ten left!
Since I had free time tonight I decided to finally use my new desk from IKEA that has been sitting for months. I wiped out my scrapbooking supplies and the wedding theme stuff Kari got me last Christmas. I had fun! I had to keep the pages simpler than I like BC I need more pics in different sizes and I was getting impatient! But you can see what it looks like before an after I'm done! It took me a half an hour to choose what photo I wanted to use for the cover then didn't even attention to start the page! I'm too tired going to bed! Only two more days of tech support then I start my new job!!!! Yay!

My Vegetable Garden

I am so happy to see the awesome start to our new vegetable garden its been 3 weeks everything has started to sprout with the exception of the bell peppers...



Next week I will be tilling the spot in the backyard where I will be planting. I decided to go with a 6 inch raised box garden 3'x6'. Kevin offered to cut the wood boards for me that we found as scrap at the Fernhill house. I simply cannot wait!

Happy Easter!







He has Risen! Thank you God for giving us your son who died for our sins and we celebrate also our risen savior! This morning Kevin and I had our own praise service this morning as unfortunately our church has decided to no longer exist. It came as a shock since it seemed we were preparing for a rebirth as a group but I suppose God had something else in mind. We are going to start visiting churches next week and pray that God lead us to the place where we can fit well and use our gifts in the ministry, I know i would love to do Missions and we both would love to lead youth as well. Your prayers for the Lords direction would be appreciated.
Later in the afternoon we went to Aunt Judy and Uncle Rich's house for a barbecue! It was a blast filled with adult children Easter egg hunt, amazing food, and a mean game of badmitten! Oh yes and there is pictures- visit Nette's blog for those! The food was amazing, kat made a pasta salad and strawberry shortcake, uncle Rich cooked the burgers and dogs, Aunt Judy had her famous mac and cheese, and i brought a veggie pizza. YUM!
Judah got to hunt for eggs that us older kids hid... he did a great job and uncle Tom was his competition! he had a good time. Then Judah and Aunt Judy hid the eggs for us older ones! we even lined up in the kitchen youngest to oldest like old times and dashed out the door, Nette of course won bc she was out the door first(:P) we had a fun time and when we finished we gave Judah back his eggs.
Then For the crazy game of badmitten, we all had the trash talk going on and all equally playing pitifully, Aunt Judy got the motion shots of us as we played to capture the more "dazzling" poses as we stumbled toward the birdie!
Later on we played 4 square in the back which was more copetative then i remember bc people were starting to get nasty! lol
We had an awesome day but missed mom and Josiah it was not the same without them...
