Spring Break!

Spring Break began for me and all my family yesterday (Friday, Mar. 23)!!! It was so nice this morning to not set an alarm and not have anything we HAD to do today. This is the first Saturday in a looooooong time that there wasn't even one scheduled thing we had to do (no basketball games, no meetings to attend, no rehearsals, nothing!).

So, I enjoyed a lazy morning and read most of the paper and then worked most of the rest of the day on painting and putting up shelving and peg board in my garage. The garage is still needing lots of work, but I reduced a lot of the piles of stuff today, so that it's only about half full of stuff on the floor (now. . . what to do with the remaining stuff. . . hmm. . .).

Hannah left yesterday with about 120 or so teens and chaperones from Abundant Life Church to do a Mission Trip in Mexico, near Ensenado. They all rode the train from here to L.A. -- about a 30-hour ride -- and now should be off the train (they rented about a dozen or so vans) and ready to enter Mexico tomorrow morning. They are supposed to post updates at www.coolchurchyouth.com

Lani's mom is in town, so we're enjoying hanging out in the evenings, and the cousins playing together during the daytime. We played "farkle" tonight and Lani was the winner.

Go Ducks! Beat Florida tomorrow. Quack, quack!! It was fun to see UCLA beat Kansas in a good game. Go Pac-10. USC sure looked good yesterday until they just ran out of steam against N. Carolina. March Madness rolls on.

We were thinking about you guys as Kansas was getting slaughtered the other day!!! We actually even tried to call you- but couldn't get a hold of your #- would you e-mail it to me??? I didn't hear if the ducks won or not, but we decided we'd cheer for them instead.

Sorry about you Ducks. We were rooting for them.
