We had a wonderful Easter. No one had volunteered to have anything at their house so I decided we could do Easter dinner at our house. Normally, we have lunch, but this means that do not have time to go to church on Easter Sunday. This year we had the family celebration at our house and I made it dinner instead of lunch so everyone could come after church. It was great! We had a ham and a brisket and lots of yummy sides. We always do our egg hunt first thing on Easter morning, but once the grandparents and extended family get here we have another hunt with everyone. The weather was fantastic and the kids could run around on the property. We missed the eldest, but he had come over the day before to watch L's soccer game. It is kind of far for 2 trips.

We are still getting use to having so much space. It is great, but requires a lot of up keep. Mowing, even though we use a riding mower, takes up over half the day. Using the weedeater is such an overwhelming chore we have only done it twice in the last 6 months! We still have only weeds on the entire 2 acres, but we keep putting weed kill down around the house. We are finally getting some bare spots so hopefully we can sow some seeds, if the birds don't eat them all. Unfortunately, I ran into the corner of the pool table so hard that I had to get a CT scan done on my leg because of all the swelling. Long story severely shortened, I have to "rest" it for at least a month. This means D is pretty much on his own on the yard work and I have an annoying injury that becomes grotesquely swollen and painful if I even attempt to do anything. As many of you know, I do NOT like to sit still so this injury will probably take a couple of months to heal. I am listening about no running, leg weights, or anything that is very strenuous on the quad muscles. Wish me luck!
