The Easter Spirit

Easter seemed to come so quickly this year that we never really got the "Easter Spirit". (???) Jon, Jackson and Sadie participated in the Villebois neighborhood Easter hunt on Friday. They got to see the Easter bunny and overdose on Candy. Boomer, was tired and cranky and fell asleep just as the hunt started. Michelle stayed home and talked to a nice man from India for an hour who finally resolved our wireless internet problems. Therefore, we have no pictures to show. (Boomer got to hunt for some eggs around the house when he woke up and Grandma provided another hunt for us on Sunday.)

As per our tradition, we went to Grandma and Grandpa's for dinner (and the hunt). We didn't do easter baskets this year. As noted before "no Easter Spirit". But the kids are no worse for wear and really didn't even know that we had neglected them. That is the great thing about little kids. They only have the expectations that you give them. I keep trying to leverage that for Christmas this year but I think Jon feels guilty buying them only one gift.

Jon is in the process of hiring another office manager for Beaverton. We hope the next one last longer than six months. This will be his fourth one in 1.5 years. He's really enjoying the Maid's business, even though it can be challenging at times.

Michelle is in the throes of training for a triathlon, it's a short one but fun to train for. I signed up for a fantastic swim class in Canby and am feeling alot better about the swim. The only negative effect is that I have developed an allergy to Chlorine. So even though I'm feeling pretty athletic these days people think I am sick with my stuffy red nose and my persistant cough.
As always life is good but I still wish we were in Hawaii
