Annie, about one hour into her first soccer practice for the season. She wasn't this distracted all of the time.

She picked out and put on her own pajamas. She thinks it matches because it is all stripes. The top is acutally a shirt - not pajamas. But, hey, it works for me!

Amish Cinnamon Bread. I have starters to pass along to 3 of you who might want it. You can have it now or when you come on Easter.

We are up on Skyline Drive. From Skyline there are places where you can see the ocean (behind us) and the San Francisco Bay (in front of us), but as far as I know, never both at once. I work in the building just to the right of the tallest one you can see on the horizon (about 1/3rd of the way in from the left). Our "crappy trailer park" is just a smidge in from the left side somewhere in the valley down there. The kind of empty looking place on the horizon on the right are all the runways for SFO. The terminals are on the horizon in the middle.

It was private violin lesson day at our house today. Vaughn has been giving a neighbor boy lessons for the past few weeks.

So, I needed to get up into the attic to get the Easter stuff. I need a ladder to get up there, but the ladder is at Nikki's house. So...I took the baby high chair, stacked a big box on top of it, and then put a kid's booster seat on top of that. I climbed up, but still had to do a pull up type thing and push my feet aganst the wall to boost myself up there. Finally, I made it. While up there, I decided that I did not need Nikki & Gabby's baskets, so set them aside. I handed the necessary stuff down to Jesse, dropped myself back down, and very carefully climbed down my "ladder." Then I looked at the baskets that I brought down - Nikki & Gabby's!!! I left Jesse & Madi's up there! I think this year they will be borrowing Nikki & Gabby' baskets because I don't think I can do that trick again!

Joe and Gianni watched their first Cubs game together....although, Gianni didn't do much watching! I'm sure this is the first of many, many to come!

Oh my! I came home from work to see this beautiful doe in the neighbors yard! She just picked her head up and looked at me while I snapped many pics! How wonderful!

This is what's left of my birthday flowers. They still look pretty but, there used to be a lot more of these lillies and there was also peach roses with them.

Nikki is busy painting her house. The little girls next door came over and asked to help. They think it is so much fun.

My poor, cold lilacs... Wonder if I'll get any flowers on them at all this spring.

We had a birthday party in Addison (our Dino Jump lady's daughter), then a jump to deliver near River Forest. So, we killed time in the River Forest area taking a hike on (then off) of a bike path. We had a really nice day!

The boys fixed me a wonderful dinner. This is one of our friends that is staying over for the weekend. He also is in the navy and that is where we all met. James got held by him for the first time today.

My mom and I watched Slumdog Millionaire today..i'm not sure how I felt about it?? It was hard to follow...and I fell asleep at the end, so I don't know what happened!

I really shouldn't order food when I'm hungry. I couldn't finish it. But I really wanted some tacos!

I decided to get up early today (I'm on spring break) and go take the 8:30 yoga class. I've never taken yoga and I figured that I might as well try it. Well, I got there about 10 minutes before class and as I drove past the pet store (Critters) I noticed this guy with a bike that just looked out of place. He was looking in the closed pet store window and when I drove past he turned and looked at me. I went into the gym and went to the bathroom, when I came back by the front desk that guy was in the gym talking to the workers. I didn't think much more about it until the other ladies coming into the classroom were talking about him. It turns out that he was very intoxicated (at 8:30 in the morning) they said that every other word was an "F" bomb. He asked the workers at the gym about getting a bottle of water and they said "sure" but did he know that he had one in his back pocket, he told them that it was vodka. So, one of the girls called the police and had them come to the gym to check him out (they didn't want him getting on his bike and hurting himself or anyone else). The police came, it was very hard to focus on the yoga because we were all wanting to watch the show. Eventually the police took him away and we continued the class without distraction. I was so annoyed that I couldn't get a picture (my camera was in the car) so this one will have to do.

They brought our "lunch" at 2pm. We were starved. It was OK. Not so impressed. But it's better than mushy broccoli and stale bread. We really would have liked some dessert.:( But you can't look a gift horse in the mouth. I have found out that this Ruby Tuesdays has serious comunication issues.

Outside the dentist office, wearing the matching ponchos that I made for them about 4 years ago...

My 'to do' pile at work. It only seems to get bigger and bigger. And this is only a part of it. You should see what I have stashed in the file drawer.
Jen April 2, 2009
Today I tried to curl my hair it didn't work that well. I guess I need to keep trying.
