Our trip and more

Well, we left last Thurs. evening to go to Ohio. We had a good trip after we got out of town. With GOTR it was late before we even tried to get started. Then when we got going we had to get food, the Envoy washed, and gas. In that process, I remembered I had not cord to charge my cell so back home we went.
Friday here we had about 14" of snow or so we hear. We were in Ohio and it was 65 and sunny. Andy stayed home and helped his dad install things on his new computer. They girls and I had a slow day and didn't get out of the house till about 4:00. We then went to buy Easter shoes. It was so nice to get out of the Envoy and not have to have a coat on. The weather was beautiful.
Saturday the weather was much colder. But it was a good day. We were going to my aunt Constance's house for an Easter pot luck at 4:00. I made a main dish and a dessert during the day. Then we went to visit my grandma Kirk. It was nice to see her doing well after breaking her tailbone a while back. After our visit with her we went back to Shirley and Cecil's to finish the food and head to Constance's house. When we got there a lot where already there and more continued to come. It was such a fun evening with family. I got to see my cousin Ben and Danielle's new baby Samuel. I even got to hold him for a few minutes. I got to talk to cousins I just don't see much anymore which was nice.
Sunday we went to the Joe Black (Andy's grandpa)Memorial Breakfast at Andy's parents church. Then we went over to Ripley Church of Christ for our Easter service. It was another cold morning but the sun ended up shining. After church we headed back to Andy's parents house to get changed, get the Envoy loaded and head home. The long weekend visits are always too fast but it was a nice relaxing weekend. I told Andy I want to go back for Memorial Day weekend because my cousin's daughter is having her graduation party.

Since we have been home, my new fridge was delivered. I love it! It is nice and roomy and it works! :O) We are also scheduled to get our new mattress Saturday which I am also excited about. I know it will take some getting used too but I know it is time to make a change from the water bed.

I also went to the Dr. and she referred me to a Physical Therapist for my hip. She says it most likely won't finish healing on it's own unless I have 1 to 2 weeks to devote to doing NOTHING! Well, we all know that isn't happening so off t physical therapy I will go! I also have to get my routine blood work and a routine ultrasound on my thyroid. Everything else is good. I had her check over my moles and they all look fine.

GOTR is going well. We finally felt like we had a normal routine yesterday. I think it is going to be a lot of fun! The girls all seem to really enjoy it! I even did the stretches and some running yesterday. I figure I will do what I can handle till I find out what I can and cannot do from the PT.

Well, that is my 'catch up' from not posting in a while. I will try to keep up for the next week or so. No promises the week after that because we are leaving for FL next Thurs. :O) Can't wait for nice warm weather!!! We also get to see my parents and my sister. The girls are SO excited!
