Welcome to the sick house!

Okay I know - it has been forever since I posted and you are all thinking... I am going to stop checking this regularly cause she is slacking! No No!! STay with me! This has been a crazy couple of weeks with some of it being the fact we all caught the tummy bug! What fun in our house! Todd was the last to catch it - thinking he was cool enough to avoid it - and today was his last day of hooky from work and so hopefully tomorrow will be the start of a healthy house!! Yay!!!

But the other thing that I have done in the past couple weeks that kept me away was much more pleasant and actually life altering. I spent 3 1/2 days at a spiritual retreat called Via de Cristo. It was absolutely amazing and one of the most beautiful things I have experienced in my life! Besides the spiritual and emotional beauty - we also were located at a camp in Indiana with HUGE windows overlooking a lake and hillside and watching 8-10 inches of snow fall! WOW! If anyone of you ever gets the opportunity to go to a Via de Cristo (or Curcillo or Walk to Emmaus) - DO IT! You will not regret a single moment! I can't wait for Todd to go next fall so I can talk all about it with him!

Wanted to let you all know we were still here and to say we miss you all! Have a great week and a glorious Easter - remembering why we celebrate the season!

Love ya!

We are so sad to miss everyone during Easter this year. We can't wait to see all of you this summer! Your babies are growing up so fast!
