Easter

This week we had our first holiday in our new home, which also happened to be the first holiday we've hosted ourselves. It was a great time and I enjoyed all the set up and decorating but it was quite an undertaking. All the extra space we thought we gained moving to this house seemed to disappear. The logistics of having 20 people over is confusing to say the least. I have so much respect for my mom doing this on a regular basis. That said, we were very happy to share our new home with our family and best friends for Easter. It was a very laid back day, we ate amazing food and sat on the patio. Thankfully it cooled down later in the day, it just happened to be the first weekend we had over 90 degree temperatures.

The kiddos were so cute, they didn't care that our backyard grass isn't growing yet. They just ran around hiding eggs in the dirt. Later we walked down to the park so they could run around, London came along and was so happy with all the attention she got the whole day. As a side note...we have also discovered that while she has many characteristics of a Husky like "talking" and digging, she is more German Shepard in her loyalty and does not take off if someone leaves the door open. We had her at the park and let go of her leash a few times, she just ran around getting attention from everyone.  Not that we're just going to let her roam around but it's nice to know that if someone let's her out on accident she won't take off and get lost as we have been warned.

Unfortunately this week hasn't been all sunshine and rainbows, I have bronchitis pretty bad. Thankfully the asthma and allergy kind not the contagious kind but I have not been a happy camper the past couple weeks. So if I've been rambling, I blame it on the cough syrup.
