April 24th: on my return from Montana this is what we get.
April 25th: the kids have a snow day from school.
Nathan and Sammy aren't working too hard!
Alex had to come in and unload the dishwasher. She wasn't happy, believe it or not she wanted to stay outside shovelling (I think she was actually playing/fighting with Sammy and Nathan).

I went for a girl's weekend with my friend Lynn to her place on Canyon Ferry Lake in Montana. It was a great weekend and I can't wait to go back in July when the weather's even warmer.

Lynn and her mom (it is a nice picture Lynn).

We had Easter brunch at our club.

Our friends, the Stachlers, were nice enough to join us.

Although it looks like it at first glance we unfortunately were not able to take Carissa and Sabrina with us to Cancun (although we'd love it if we could)!

We all went to Cancun for 5 days at an all inclusive resort and a great time was had by all. (Even Bob, although it was not really his type of vaca -- no sight seeing for us.)
The kids "swam" with the dolphins and all enjoyed that.
Our last nights dinner we all got dressed a little nicer and went to a Japanese restaurant.
Alex got her hair done on the last day.

The weather was great and although we had a horrendous trip home (30 hours) we would all do it again!

Bob and I went to New York (my first time) for St. Patricks Day weekend. Here is Grand Central Station.... Times Square.... and walking past a bank on Sunday saw Lucy Liu filming...


... we had a great time and saw so many things.
