Day 115
{April 21st} Tuesday
It has been Hot. And I have to say that I have loved it. Except that my tulips got a bit sunburned, but besides that. It has been great. Kids had fun in the sprinkler, Vann was so funny as he ran around getting wet and Braydan was a very protective older brother, and acted as a human shield.

{April 19th} Saturday
By the day, Vann becomes a more finicky sleeper. Sometimes I cant even put him down, and you can forget the crib. I think an intervention is needed.

Day 111
{April 17th} Friday
I has been so beautiful lately that we have been going out for evening walks a lot. We all go up 1 block to the cemetery and walk the perimeter. It is a really nice walk and Moe always finds plenty of things to chase. Today it was a deer.

Day 107
{April 13th} Monday
Today was a very depressing day today. I was trying to get the ball moving on house hunting but it looks like that we wont be able to buy a house for a while yet. It just not friendly market for those of us who don't have cash money for a down payment. So it looks like we will be renters for who knows how long. Very frustrating because we can afford house payments but they wont give us a loan. I seriously just wanted to cry, or scream, or maybe throw something....after getting off the phone with the loan agent.

Day 106
{April 12th} Sunday
A favorite picture from this weekend. We woke up to pretty Easter egg baskets full of treats from the Easter bunny, said good bye to all of our family and spent the next 11 hours in the car driving back home to Yreka. The kids actually did a lot better, we had borrowed Mom and Dad's DVD player and a few movies, and it made all the difference. Good-bye Redlands family we miss you all ready.

{April 11th} Saturday
It definitely was the mother of all Easter egg hunts. The Kids found a ton of eggs and pretty much made them selves sick on the candy. And there was an adult Easter egg hunt this year, and I would have to say that we all made out like bandits. It was so much fun and my Mom and Dad really out do themselves every year. Here are the kids going through there egg loot. I dont think that Tes brushed her hair the whole time we were there. :)

Lovin it here at home. Even though it is colder here then in Yreka. But as pulled into Redlands you could smell the orange blossoms, it was great it smelled like home. And of the course right away the kids were spoiled rotten.

So before we got to Redlands, Nathan wanted to stop to get a few more suits. And even though it kinda looks like a whole in the wall it has really nice suits for a really good deal.

Nathan and I have a deal, If I am in charge of making food on a thrice daily basis. He is responsible for cleaning the cars and making sure they have gas on a semi-regular basis. :)

Braydan and Tes seemed to be feeling Ok so we decided to make our Medford trip. It was a big Costco month. And after we were done shopping and had eaten our Costco pizza and hot dogs we drove around Medford. Checked out the Temple and some of the neighborhoods, we have decided that we are going to move there this summer. So we are the search of a house.

Braydan came home from school sick yesterday, some type of bug that is going around. Not good. He has it and Tes has it today and I am sure Vann will get it as well. Fever, aches, and just feeling yucky. So we made beds on the couches and watched Star Wars all day.

Oh, the sweet life of a celebrity. :)

Vann is a crazy man, I cant let him outside he makes a bee line for the street. He doesn't care about the grass or the toys or anything that has to do with our yard, he wants the street. So to remedy the situation of him wanting to be outside and me, wanting to keep my son alive. I close up the garage and he plays in there. (which he is totally happy with ) Problem solved.

One of the fruits of our shopping day yesterday was a new desk. Office Depot was closing out all their office furniture so we got a pretty good deal. But we had to pick it up today. So we dropped the kids off at a friends house and made another trip up to medford to pick it up. It is a little big for the house, but since I hope that we wont be in this house for to much longer, it can work.
