I can't believe it's April!

Yes, it's April. I do have peas planted in my garden, but no lettuce and radish. I have the seeds, they just aren't in the ground. I did get my gladiolus bulbs in the ground too that I faithfully dug up in the fall. Hmmm, I wonder if they have sprouted, I need to look.

We've had a fabulous winter! I'm so thankful that we've had the opportunities that we've had so far n 2011 and it's just the beginning of April.


Here's a run down...

January - spent 10 days in Washington, D.C. area. So blessed that our friends came down to visit for the weekend because we miss them so much! The boys and I had a blast visiting all of the sites around Washington, D.C. when there weren't any lines. Breakfast and pool were still probably their favorites! (My husband had to work.)


Came home for a week and then headed to Texas for 11 days. We were able to see old friends in Dallas which was so great. Then to Houston area for my husband to take a class. The rest of the family hung out in the hotel quite a bit and once again visited with some friends and let our kids play together! At the end of the trip, we headed to Dallas to celebrate a grandmother's 90th birthday!


We drove home thankful for the radar on our phones to watch the winter storm a-brewing. School was closed for the rest of the week I think because it was pretty slick and REALLY cold.


During the great snow, I get a phone call asking if I was available to do some Cerner work. So, by the end of February four of us flew to Seattle and headed to Vancouver for me to work for three weeks. Wow, how blessed I was that the opportunity worked out as it did. I couldn't have planned it, I know that the Lord was so involved. After a brief half day delay at the border, we spent most of the next three weeks in the lovely city of Vancouver. My husband was able join us for the last week!


We spent a week of March at home and then got on another airplane and headed to Tampa! This trip was planned way before the Vancouver opportunity arose. We enjoyed some sun and relaxation there!


Now it's April and I really haven't been home much. I did extend my contract beyond the three weeks that were in Vancouver. I have promised that my primary responsibilities are still to be a wife and mother! I'm grateful that my memory served me well that I remember all this great Cerner stuff and the client was happy with my skills to let me set my parameters!


Now, on with spring!
