A Night In Paris

Last night Cole's junior prom was held at the school. As parents of a junior, we had the experience of helping with the prom. For us, it was interesting, enjoyable and a bit tiring, but I have the utmost respect for the parents and school staff who had to put so very much more work into it than we did! Cole dragged his feet and really did not want to go to prom but I declared victory this morning when he said the immortal words, "Mom, you were right!" After being sure he would not enjoy prom, he came home with some great gifts and even better memories.

SPRING!!!

We FINALLY have some spring-like weather! I have been praising God for this wonderful weather, even if it's just for a moment!!! Yard work was on the agenda but our 'hired' help is getting fewer and fewer. Cole is busy with school and golf practice, Will hurt his arm (praying that it's nothing serious), so Ally enjoyed helping her dad outside.



He really did hurt his arm...at least that's what he tells us. :)

Red/White Game

Dirk took the boys and a friend to the Red/White game in Lincoln last weekend. Ally and I stayed home and considered ourselves safe from the 'man thing'. From the sounds of it, they had a really great time and their blood continues to bleed 'Husker Red'...


Celebrating Jesus!

The Vlasin's joined us for Easter weekend and a good time was had by all! It was wonderful to have family around to relax and have fun with. Laughing as only family can laugh and at things only family should laugh at...good memories! Sunday afternoon brought quiet to the house and quite a bit of 'homesickness' but life goes on and memories are made.
