Easter, Warmer Weather and a Mental Health Moment!
So this month has been really weird weather for us. One minute it's 60+ degrees and the next it was snowing 5 inches! In APRIL! It has really reeked havoc on my psyche not knowing what the weather will be like from one minute to the next...but we had a REALLY nice weekend right before Easter, so t
he kids and I spent almost ALL day outside playing. They have really started liking their skateboards and have even had a few lessons from their cousin Tanner who is REALLY good. For now I am only comfortable with them in our driveway (seeing as our street has a pretty good downhill angle) but the kids keep begging me to take them to a real skatepark. I'm not sure I'm ready for that yet :-)!
The night before Easter, I decided to take the kids to a movie on a date (just the kids and I, Chris was REALLY sick and in bed.) I took them to see the new "Hannah Montana" movie and was really surprised at how much I even enjoyed it. Danny was awesome and enjoyed it until the popcorn and candy ran out when he started asking if we could go home. Go figure. I had been disappointed about the movie because originally we were going to go on opening night Friday, but with my Mom's move
and Chris being sick we didn't get a chance. Well it just so happens that Miley Cyrus showed up at the premier here in Utah...at the theater AND showing I had originally planned to go to! Once again, go figure. Oh well. So we didn't get home from the movie until 9:30 saturday night and I realized that with Chris sick and it being so late, that I'd be up for a while doing Easter baskets and eggs...so thanks to some caffeine, I finally got it all done around Midnight. It all paid off though. The next morning the kids were suprised and excited that the Easter Bunny had dyed their eggs! They thought it was pretty special!
Then yesterday, after a really long and busy week, my friend Jess drug me kicking and screaming to get a pedicure. Now what I can't figure out is..why hadn't we done this before?!?! Talk about heaven on earth! Not only did my feet get pampered, but we were also sitting in really nice massage chairs! OOOhh! If only I could do that everyday!! What a nice treat! Thanks Jess!!!
