My mom, Owen and I spent the weekend in Moab and had a great time...it was my first time and something I'm glad I got to see. It was a really nice change of scenery and good to get away!

Steve goes to Pebble

Steve's dream finally came true! He had the opportunity to go to Pebble Beach Resort and Golf at 3 of their courses...Pebble Beach, Spyglass, and Spanish Bay. The last day they had some time to kill so they also went to Poppy Hills. He went with his boss and his boss' wife and had an amazing time...the room he stayed at was in The Lodge at Pebble Beach and was deluxe. I think the thing he loved most about his room was the supply of Toblerone candy bars (such a kid). It was a little cold, but beautiful and I'm sure well worth it. I am so happy that he got to go and experience this because it is something he has only been able to dream about. Dreams really do come true...

The Other Boleyn Girl....Book Club Recap

This month's read about sisters rivaling to win the affections of King Henry VIII and rise to the top to be his queen was quite the intriguing book. We had a wonderful discussion about it and I would say it was a success, although we were sad that some could not make it...NEXT TIME! Overall, we gave it an average rating of about 4 on a scale of 1-5. It was fascinating to learn of this time period and their customs with royalty and the roles men and women played. It was also interesting to read about a woman's ambition that will lead her to do anything to succeed...WOW.

We also discussed the upcoming book schedule and some things have changed....
For May we will be reading Atonement by Ian McEwan
and for July we will be reading Lovely Bones instead of Lucky by the same author.
So...please make note and hope to see you next month...also if you come to our book club and have not yet been, please come with suggestions of a book you would like to read. Thanks Soph, Kim, Ashlie, Rachel and Lindsay!

Where's Pedro?

Since the arrival of Owen things have changed a little with Pedro and he has become a bit more independent as to when and where he sleeps. It used to be right next to me or on me or whatever worked for him, but I don't allow that anymore. So he curled up in this blanket and and when it was time to go up to bed, he was STUCK! We just kept calling his name to get him excited and he couldn't go anywhere....Hilarious! (i know we are mean)
