Saturday

The kids were so quiet this morning that Corey and I got to sleep in until 9am. Corey and Alex got ready and headed out to a birthday party for one of Alex's friends on his soccer team. It was held at the local movie theatre and they saw Teenage Ninja Mutant Turtles. Then they had birthday cupcakes and received goodie bags. He came home all excited...and wired. LOL! And he hadn't even eaten his cupcake, he brought it home with him.

A little later we headed up to Nashville to meet up with my Aunt Ilene and cousin, Alexa. We met at Rafferty's and had a late lunch/early dinner and lots of good talking. They are coming to Michael's house tomorrow to join us for our family get together. We will be hiding eggs for the kids & eating yummy food.

This evening the kids colored some eggs. They came away from the table all clean...and yet I had various colors all over my fingers. LOL! Go figure.

Movie review time...last night we watched Volver and I posted that I thought it was weird. Well, it was but mostly in the beginning. It got better as we got further into the movie and I started figuring out where the movie was going...and it went there. ;-) So a little odd but still okay. Tonight we watched A Change of Heart. A TV movie I think, based on a true story. Pretty good, sappy, with a happy ending. So there ya go.

Morgan has started reading Eldest and Alex is starting to get into the Choose-Your-Own-Adventure books. He has almost read the entire series of A to Z Mysteries too. He is still into his Guardian of Ga'Hoole books as well.

It is still so cold but it should only be another couple of days. It is strange sitting all covered up in the living room with the heat on again. I thought we were done with this.

Enjoy the beginnings of spring and time with your families, however you celebrate & whatever your personal beliefs are. :-)
