This past weekend was fun and relaxing. It reached 100 so the air conditioner is on. Got to spend some time with my good friend Joy at her salon. Bought us some iced teas with extra lemon (our fav). Also spent time with friends and family and lots of Phase 10 playing.
We are down to 5 weeks of school left. Looking forward to summer!
Been spending some time making cards lately. These aren't done yet. Waiting for some new product to come in I ordered from Papertrey Ink. I'll share the finished card when it's complete. It feels great to want to scrap and card make again. I took much too long of a vacation from this hobby.
When I wake up the first thing I do it check the weather on my phone. Looks like it's going to reach 100 degrees this weekend. I love the Arizona heat!! Bring on summer!!!
Take 2! Typepad just erased my whole post!
This morning we were up early. I took Robert to the doctor at 9:00. He still wasn't feeling well. Luckily, his doctor's office is open on the weekends from 8-12. They tested him for Mono and Strep. Both came back negative. He has a virus and they gave him a z-pack to help wipe out whatever he has. He's been sleeping all day and just woke up. He says he feels much better.
We had a great time at dinner Friday night. Here's a bunch of photos I took.
The guys being serious...
We rented a couple of movies and are going to just relax for the rest of the day. We've been running errands all day. Going to make shrimp fried rice for dinner. YUM!
It's been cold today!! It think it reached 64 today which really isn't that cold, but it was very windy. Dave and Robert have sore throats and don't feel well. They are both in bed so I decided to get crafty and use some of my new Papertrey Ink products. Love their ink. It stamps flawless!
Yesterday, Robert had a follow up with his doctor on his fractured leg. It's been 4 weeks and it's healing nicely. He no longer has to wear his boot and now he sports a lace up ankle wrap. He starts physical therapy for four weeks. Hopefully he won't need four week of PT.
Tonight we are heading down to Chandler again to celebrate my sister's 40th birthday!! We are eating at The Keg. Looking forward to having the whole family together for dinner.
Forgot to blog about Easter so I better catch up now. You're never too old for an Easter basket! I just surprised Robert with all his current favorite things. He honestly didn't think he was even going to get one. I loaded him up on sunflowers seeds, protein bars, Mio Energy and gum. He's all about health these days so no candy in our house.
We started out Easter Sunday by driving to my sister's house in Chandler for a brunch. We had a formal sit down brunch.
We had an assortment of home made mini-muffins, baked oatmeal, two different types of quiche, sausage, bacon, and fruit. It was all so delicious!! My sister out did herself!
After, the younger kids had a egg hunt.
Then the kids all had a water balloon fight. I took this photo when they thought there were no water balloons left.....but.....Robert still had one. He broke it over Matt's head. I wish I had snapped the photo just a second later to see Matt's expression. You can see all the water, but he hadn't reacted yet. It was pretty funny!
Matt and Robert
Then Carlton decided to go swimming.
Uncle Will showed us his new Harley.
Then we headed back to our side of town and went to my parents house for another Easter celebration. My mom cooks Easter dinner every year. Our good family friends came over. I didn't take one picture! Of well. We ate alot and had a great time.
I'm off today. Robert has school and Dave has to work. Going shopping, nail salon, finish up some Easter dinner shopping and then home to make some cards. I haven't crafted in ages, but last night I stayed up working on my sister's birthday card. Going to give her her present on Sunday since her birthday falls in the middle of the week.
Pretty sure she won't look on this blog so I'll share the card I made for her.
Ok off to take Robert to school and get ready for my day.

Green, tall trees, beautiful views.....missing Northern California today. It's nothing like Arizona. Can't wait until we visit family again in September for Jamie's wedding.
