Easter and family fun




Well, It's been a while since I last "blogged" and been a bit crazy. I take one more exam tomorrow and a final next week and I'm done until next fall. My kids keep begging me to drop out of school, but I need to be an example (sometimes I wonder if they're right!!). Morgan just started Baseball and becoming a Phil Jr. He plays catcher on the A's and loves it. He's on a team with many of his friends (Mitch and Josh to name a couple). He has to go over to the ball park each night and scout the other teams so he knows "how to play them!!" Only 9 and already turning into his Grandpa Olsen. Hanna is miss socialite with friends everywhere. She is so funny. She is taking dance lessons at the REC center and doing remarkably well. She wants to play softball and soccer and take guitar lessons. She hasn't quite found her niche, but I don't doubt she'll do well at whatever. Gracie is an absolute hoot! She is talking all the time and picks up on much, almost too much. We were at Morgan's game and she wanted to play on the toy. I told her to watch the game. She said, "It's boring Mom". What 2 year old uses "boring". She also said the legos that wouldn't fit into her castle no matter how she tried were, "bugging me". She loves to say prayers or in her words, "Talk to Fader in Heaven". She thinks she's 8 like Hanna. Sometimes I even think she's 8. She follow Hanna around like a puppy. Lindsey, my niece, has been staying with us while Joe's parents are away on a cruise. She has been doing great other than she records her teen shows and erases my reality TV!! Joe started Lawns this week, what a week of business. He's doing well and loving his shop. I keep teasing him that if we put a bed and toilet in their we'd never see him. We are leaving, Just Joe and I, to Cancun in a couple of weeks. It will be a nice relaxation. Until Cancun, Adios Amigos!!
