It has been a beautiful Friday and Saturday. The boys invited their friend Kel to come over. He spent the night Friday and Saturday nights. Chris and I took them to watch the movie The Fast and Furious. They didn't really want to go at first because they thought it wasn't any good. After the movie they stated that it was really good. Then we took them to Laker Lanes and they bowled two games. We got home at around 10:30. They pretty much went straight to bed. Chris's mom kept Kendall for us.
I did laundry most of the day yesterday. I finally got a chance to sit down and draw up the plans for our addition to the house. Hopefully, we will get that started soon. I dug up a few unwanted trees in our landscaping yesterday. They just decided to come up on their own.
Well, today's plans include getting my grades on the computer and taking the boys to basketball practice then Corey to baseball practice.

Easter went well. Kendall was funny hunting eggs. She would run and just pass them up. Then she would finally pick one up while dumping others out of her basket.

Chance and Corey looked handsome in their shirts. We had a big meal at my mom and dad's house consisting of meatloaf, country ham, mashed potatoes, garden corn (frozen from last year), pinto beans, mexican cornbread, pea salad, potato salad, rolls and for dessert- dirt cake, chess bars, choc. chip cheesecake bars, and banana split cake. Delicious!

I think I have the last doctors' appointments in. I actually had to take Chance this morning. We went to the health dept. to get his shot and physical on Thurs. They made a mistake in the scheduling and didn't allow enough time for a physical so needless to say we had to come back today. I was a little tiffed. Today was the only day I didn't have to go to town or somewhere but oh, well. Corey got his braces off yesterday. He goes next Thursday for his retainer. Chance is scheduled to go the first part of June to get his braces. One out and the other in.

SPRING BREAK!!!
Well, it is great to be off on spring break if only the weather would cooperate. Sunday was absolutely wonderful with 75- 80 degrees then yesterday it was in the 30's. What a change! I have been in the cleaning out mood. I really want to get things cleaned up and out of the house before we start building on. The top bunk on the bunk beds broke a few weeks ago so Corey has been sleeping on the mattress in the floor. I took the top bunk apart and took the wood to my mom. She may reuse some of the pieces. I also took down the baby bed in Chance's room which Kendall never sleeps in. It was just taking up space.
I took Kendall back to Dr. Winit's on Monday to check up on her ear. All of the drainage is gone but it is still a little red. He put her on the antibiotic for 10 more days, that will be 20 days in all. I went for my yearly check up today, all went well. Then on Thurs. Chance goes for his 6th grade physical and shot and the orthodontist. Corey also has an orthodontist check up that day. He gets his braces off and a retainer to keep his front teeth together while his other teeth come in.
I really need to remove the shrubs on the right side of the house this week if possible. I want to have that done so they are not waiting on me. I definitely want to keep them. That is too much money to throw away. I think I will replant them in the back along the deck then I will buy more for around the house after it is finished. We will see. Gotta go!
