The Easter Bunny visited our house this year! Cory got a whole basket full of candy, jerky, and other fun Easter treats, and I got some treats and a book called No Regrets - 100 Fabulous Things To Do Before You're Too Old, Married, or Pregnant. This book has 101 ideas on how to live your life to the fullest from learning how to love champagne to making up with a lost friend, learning a foreign language to leaving an unfulfilling job. I can't wait to start reading it and making my own list.Also, on Easter we went to my Aunt and Uncle's house for lunch and an Easter egg hunt. My Uncle Terry and Aunt Denise always put so much work into the Easter Egg hunt. They put money in some of plastic eggs and then the "real" eggs are worth money too. All of the kids (ages 17-34, with a 2-year-old in the mix) have a blast searching for the eggs all over the yard. Next year I will have to video tape it and post it on here for your viewing enjoyment. It is hilarious!
Eddie, our Chihuahua, didn't have a great Easter this year. He has another pinched nerve in his back. We had to take him to the Vet and get a Cortisone shot and he is also on pain meds and muscle relaxers twice a day. He is doing much better today, but he still has to take it easy. The Vet told us that some dogs are just prone to this sort of thing. Poor little guy.
Encanto Park - Phoenix, AZAlso, we have finally made a decision about our first vacation of 2009. We were going to go to Tennessee with some of our family, but since we owed on taxes this year we decided to stay a little closer to home. We tossed around the idea of going to Vegas, but that is pretty expensive too. So, my Mom, Cory, and I (and the dogs) are going to Phoenix, AZ. We are driving down next week, staying a couple of nights, and then driving back home. It's only going to be a scorching 90 degrees. Yay! Also, I have been researching places to shop in Phoenix and there is a Crate and Barrel, PB Loco Cafe, Trader Joe's, and lots of other fun places we will have to visit. We are so excited to get away - we really need a mini vacation ASAP.

Sounds like a great Easter! I think that is great that so many people get to enjoy the Easter egg hunt. Have fun on your mini vacation!
What a fun Easter! :)Sorry to hear that Eddie hasn't been feeling well. :( Poor little guy! How fun that you're going to AZ...tell me how PB Loco cafe is. I've been dying to go there! :) If all goes well, we may be going to Disneyland in October...I can't wait to take Grace there!
I have a really good friend that lives down there so I can get you some good tips on great places to shop and eat if you would like. I went down right after Christmas one year to see her and it was 85 the whole time. I had to return to -5 degree weather in Logan though :(
Of course you've reserached where to go shopping. You crack me up!
Good thing little Eddie has his mama Michele to take care of him and feed him warm chicken nuggets at a park when he's not feeling well. You're such a good owner.
I'll have to check that book out too. Looks like a great read.
