If you are reading this post then you are a very committed blog checker (or you have this blog set on your RSS) and I appreciate your dedication to checking in on us since we have been so incredibly delinquent in posting the last several months. Once again, I will attempt to make attempts in posting a more frequently, even if its not to describe the going-ons here in Ft. Worth.
Also an Editor's Note: This will be our blog for the most foreseeable future. My efforts to switch to Wordpress were an attempt to change things up and blog more regularly...we all know how that worked out.
Well, during the past month, we took a quick trip to Washington, D.C. seeing the sights and met up with Jeff & Laurie for dinner. It was great to catch up with them. We also went to the Holocaust Museum and the International Spy Museum among stopping by the Capitol, Lincoln Memorial, and Vietnam Wall. We tried to go to the White House Monday morning, but apparently it was the day of the Annual Easter Egg Roll which is the Monday after Easter Sunday. We almost snuck in without a ticket.
Oh, and on that trip Caleb got sick on the plane ride there, I got sick at Starbucks, and Cheryl got sick once we returned home. Fun how sickness just works its way around the family.
Most recently (as in last weekend), we went up to Little Rock to visit Amy & Barrett and my parents (also in town for a visit). As some of you know, Amy is pregnant with their first kiddo and we found out that we are getting a....niece! That makes the count Nephews - 5 (oh, yeah Julie my sis-in-law had her third boy almost 2 weeks ago), Nieces - 1. Leave it to my family to start balancing things out.
We got totally addicted to Guitar Hero on Amy's Wii (Guitar Hero actually belongs to her brother-in-law) and we played it pretty much incessantly. We did play a few other games and Caleb was especially helpful in cheering me and my mom on when we were bowling. He actually may have been trying to knock down the pins himself and even picked up a remote control to assist. There is a great video.
We did manage to make it to a park near A&B's house Saturday afternoon for a some fun! Here are some great pics!
