The last couple of days have been crazy! We had dinner with Craig, Diana, and Luke Friday and Saturday nights. Corban was up WAY passed his bedtime both nights and that did not make for pleasant mornings, plus I think he's getting some teeth. Sunday the choir sang their Easter program at a nursing home, so the three of us headed to that in the afternoon and came back and then we took Corban to the park for the first time! He liked the swing OK, but he loved the slide and just playing in the wood chips around the playground equipment. He threw a fit when we tried to get him back in the car - it honestly took Johnny and me both to get him strapped into his car seat he was that upset about leaving. We still had to bundle him up though, there was a bit of an edge to the air. We came home and had dinner and watched a movie. "I Now Pronounce You Chuck and Larry." It was OK, but way too pro-gay for my taste. I would love to see those two (Adam Sandler and Kevin James) act in something a little less political, because they're probably two of the funniest comedic actors out there right now.

Monday was busy too. Corban slept in a little, which was wonderful and we all got going. We took the truck to get the brakes fixed (again) and ran a few errands, came home and had lunch while Corban took a good nap and I got a few things done around the house. I feel like I have a million things to do before I leave, and I'm not sure I'm going to get it all in! Corban and I went to babysit Nina, she won her school spelling bee, so she'll be going to the spelling bee for the whole diocese! She's a 4th grader and beat out all of the 4th, 5th, and 6th graders! Anyway, came back home and took Corban for a ride in his Birthday wagon and then Johnny let him play in the yard for a while - he tried to eat about 15 different rocks in the 20 minutes I was out there -before he took him in and gave him a nap. We had dinner with a couple from the church and again, got Corban in bed really late. Tonight we're having dinner with another couple from the church and their two little ones. I'm so thankful I don't have to cook!

I leave for Kentucky in THREE days! I am a little nervous about the drive with a one year old, but so far he's traveled so well, I don't imagine that I'll run into any problems and the drive is so pleasant I don't dread that part either. I think it is going to be raining though, and I'm not looking forward to that. Well, I had better get to my "To Do" list. I'll be seeing some of you soon!

I was really surprised what an easy drive it was from Pittsburgh to KY (Louisville) and that was after sleeping in the car at a rest stop! Save travels!

Hahaha - I knew Chuck & Larry would be too gay for you. I thought it was funny though. :)

Looking forward to seeing you guys!
