Hey Everyone

First off let me start by saying that we are very sorry we have not posted in a while, but for those of you with kids, you know how hectic it can be at times. With TNT in Kindergarten it just seems like we always have something going on and then with the sports it's like football runs right into soccer and from soccer it's on to T-ball. Of which the boys are currently playing now. Ralph and I really enjoy it, as do the boys. Last week Tyler hit his 1st ever home run and 2nd home run all in the same game. Way to go, TYLER!!! Trevor enjoys playing first base, but what he really enjoys is school and that is where he really seems to excel naturally. I guess he is going to be a smarty pants just like his Daddy. Woo Hoo, TREVOR!!! TNT are also excited about their upcoming 6th B-day on May 18th. Ethan is 15 months now going on 5. He really thinks that he can do anything his brothers can. He really keeps me on my toes and in shape I do not need a membership to the gym as I am constantly chasing after him. He is talking up a storm and is starting to have quite an extensive vocabulary. Yeah, ETHAN!!! As for Ralph and myself we are doing excellent. Ralph's business is doing great, and the Easter Bunny bought us a nice present as you can see in the pictures we purchased a boat. We have really been enjoying it, and we have gone out all weekend long, the past two weekends, fishing, swimming and all kinds of other fun stuff. What a great way to spend some good quality time together as a family. We are also getting ready for the summer. School will be out here in 3 weeks, we already have a lot planned for the summer. We will be going on two trips with the kids and two without, who hoo, RALPH AND LAURIE!!! We are really looking forward to that. TNT will be going to their grandparents house in S. Florida (my parents) for a couple of weeks. The boys have been wanting to do this for a couple of years now and I finally feel that they are old enough to stay away that long without us. They are so excited about that. We are looking forward to the reunion as well and have already booked our cottage. Can't wait to see everyone. :) Our love to all.......

Family Easter Egg Hunt

Last Saturday we had the Florida Family Easter Egg Hunt. It was a week early, but since Gramma and Aunt Robin were down visiting, we wanted to include them in the fun. The picnic was held at Sugar Sand Park in Boca Raton, and it was the perfect location. (Thanks, Cathy. Once again you did a great job organizing it!)

We do the hunt just a little bit different than the "original" family egg hunt. Since our kids (Nyssa, PJ and Becky) are all older, they hide the eggs for the adults to find. The winners are presented with themed gift baskets. (But of course, we're all winners!)

We have another tradition -- at every family picnic there's a water fight. This time, Gramma joined in.

There are lots more pictures posted on my family album, if you would like to check them out.
