Happy Memorial Day! It's almost time to say good-bye to another month. There is so much going on and yet nothing at the same time. Our house in Texas is now up for sale, so the next few months should be interesting one way or another. We are enjoying a quiet day off...some shopping, some napping, some Dave and Busters. We had a great picnic at church yesterday and took a meal to a friend with a new baby. I (Susan, of course) have a bit of an easier week since the family I work for is on vacation, but I will still be doing some work. Another friend of mine had twins this week (the sister-in-law of the first friend), and both of the twins are in the NICU. They also have an 18 month old daughter, so we might be helping a bit with that this week. On Saturday, we are heading to Houston for a 3 day "vacation" to see a bit more of Texas before we move on. In pictures, I am catching up a little, since I somehow neglected to get some of these off the camera from Nathan's graduation and having family in town. Enjoy! These are all from our trip to the Ft. Worth Botanical Gardens. I'm trying to upload more, but it's giving me trouble, so I guess I'll have to try again later.

This one is for Marilee - the finished product!
On a totally different note, I've started working on what is typically known as a "quiet book". I've got tons of ideas. This is my first page. It is a color match page. The stars have magnets in them, so they will stay together. Maybe I'll have a few pages done before our car trip this weekend. =)

Hunting for Easter eggs
Checking out the contents...
Excited about his new train set
VERY excited. This is kind of an awkward but funny picture. He was doing a happy dance. His smile could not be bigger.
Hooray! So much fun

And, Gabe's bean sprouted overnight. How fun! No, you are not losing your sight. It is a blurry picture. =)
