Summer cannot come soon enough

We long for summer but we must first finish the school year. Rick is busy working on his last papers for his UF program and Nara and Devon are trying to complete the school year. We are about five weeks away from summer vacation.

We went to lunch with my parents on Easter and then Rick and I went for one last get-away

Easter Egg Hunt

Nara decided to plan and organize and Easter egg hunt for younger family members and friends. We had 11 kids at our house and a number of adults. Nara and Sammy stuffed the eggs and organized and hid the eggs, she did a great job and we all enjoyed it.

Major House Projects Over Spring Break

Taking the Fence Down

Our central air conditioner in our house quit working last week. This is the picture of the unit. It was about twenty years old so I think we got our money out of it

During spring break we got a new air conditioner tore down our fence and cleaned the house.

The Hyatt Place was great

We had a great spring break and Easter. Rick and I started our spring break by going on a quick get-away. We went to a mall not too far from our house and stayed in the hotel attached to the mall. We went to several restaurants and to the movies. We had a great time

Happy Easter!

We are off to meet my parents for lunch and then Rick and I are going to a local resort where we are going to enjoy our last bit time before we go back to work.

Picture from an Easter past

We have been having a lot of fun on spring break. I have lots of pictures to post. I wanted to post a great picture from an Easter past. Tomorrow morning Nara is hosting an Easter egg hunt at our house for some younger members of our family. I will post all of the details in a few days.
