Well, we've had quite the busy couple of weeks around here. We began our move on Wednesday night (two weeks ago) and finished up that Friday. My parents arrived that evening and were such a huge help. Dad helped the hubby finish the last unload of the U-Haul and then they helped unpacking. My sweet mom unpacked and organized my entire kitchen!

Throughout the move, I was fighting a cold, and then of course, the boys both got it. Easter Sunday we were quite the sight with all the runny noses. Nevertheless, we had a great Easter service at church, a delicious dinner, and the boys loved the egg hunt in the backyard.

Monday evening, we headed up to McCall for a couple of nights... my dad, my husband, and my brother all went skiing in Tuesday (thanks to some fresh powder Monday night). By that time, my cold had turned into a sinus infection and I was down for the count. I was so disappointed about missing out on the skiing. But, I did enjoy some snow time outside with the boys and my mom. Little man was pelting his big brother with snowballs, and Noah would respond "Be careful, Jonah, be careful." I don't think he ever realized that Jonah was intentionally targeting him!
Wednesday we headed back to Boise (my dad & Jas by way of Hells Canyon to do a little fishing) and I headed straight to the doctor. Thankfully the antibiotics helped tremendously. We did a little shopping at the mall on Thursday, and then had swimming lessons that evening. Friday morning it was time to take the family to the airport for their flight back. It was an extremely busy visit, but it's always so good to be with my family. It was hard to say good bye, but we'll see them again soon- the boys and I will be making an early summer trip. When you have another visit on the calendar, it makes the good-byes easier.
So, that, in a nut shell, has been our spring "break." Good times!

Yes it sounds like you DID have a very busy and interesting 'break'. I love the quote from Noah. Very cute! "be careful..." :) Glad you're in your new house...and you had a BACK YARD to hunt eggs in! Yippee!!!
Wow, what a busy last couple of weeks for you! Is your head spinning? I'm sorry that you had to get sick on top of all of that! I can't wait to get together with you and catch up on all of the great details. My favorite pic is you with the kids finding easter eggs...so cute :)
Love ya,
Candace
i know what you mean about having family so far away--i too have used the strategy "another visit on the calendar" to make goodbyes tolerable. sounds like you had a nice time. i hope you like your new place.
Happy Weekend! I hope you are able to relax some after a super busy last couple of weeks!
