Great Weekend with Family

As has been tradition since D and I got married, my mother had us over for Baked Spaghetti on Good Friday, that way we don't have to run around on Easter and then go to work the next day. It was very nice and we had a Dairy Queen cake for my Dad's birthday (which isn't until May 1) since my brother won't be in town for it.

Sunday we went to mass and then came home and packed up Soxy and headed to D's parents. We were down there for the day and our niece and nephew had an egg hunt. It was great to see everyone, especially Grandmother. We made it back around 9:00 because I had to be in class at 8:00 Monday morning.

I am feeling better, health wise, but managed to end up with a strained tendon from playing with my furry niece and nephews (a Boxer, a Rottweiler / German Shephard mix, and a Neopolitan Mastiff). But it was totally worth it! I haven't seen them in forever!

APPROVED!

One of the best words I have ever heard!! Once I get back from a conference on Sunday I will start writing my dissertation chapters!
