Spring Break

Spring break went speeding past. We had a play time with the W. kids (masterpiece post) followed by a wonderful extremely rainy day of pajamas, reading, playing games, and just having a nice easy time. Then we had a major shopping day and were very successful shoppers for the kids. Then my favorite: a day of organization! We then got out of town for a couple days of snowmobiling. We saw some great sights (forgot my camera of course! Argh!) and the best one being the SUN! It was waiting for us as soon as we popped over the summit. It is so exquisitely beautiful to see the sun on a snow covered mountain. Hurts the eyes. Coming home we had a day stuck in traffic. A two hour trip turned into a 7 hour trip trying to get over the pass- avalanche control they called it. It looked like it was a piddling amount so it must have been one guy with a shovel. Frustrating but the scenery was nice. We capped it off with a very nice Sunday. Karissa came over for lunch and g. meeting. Troy and Beth et all came over after meeting and we ate some of their Sunday potluck leftovers....dog food (yum! and so funny to hear Joe ask for more "dog food!"), mockamoli, etc. They had April Fools day in a big way over there. A very laid back and mellow Spring Break. And now back to work.

I'm sure the sunny mountain snow scenes were beautiful...too bad about the downer on the trip home...things could have been worse...you could have been hit by an avalanch!

I love the piano sonata on your blog!
