Can't believe it's April 23rd!

Yesterday was a nice day for a change, sunny and about 50 degrees....reasonable.  We woke up to snow showers and 34 degrees today.  Rainy and raw all day long.  Kacee is cold and miserable, had to go down to Sue's and get her rain sheet to help keep her dry.  (She could go in the barn but chooses not to)

Molly is working hard on her English final exam research paper.  (American Poetry...yuck!  Not sure what that has to do with nursing!)  She finished her Art project final the other day. (Another core course)  Next week is her last week!  Last exam a week from today.  I actually found someone to work for me so I can help bring home her stuff.  Can't believe her first year is over!!!

Molly had her interview at the hospital yesterday...she thinks it went well.  Very exciting, they took her into the OR and she actually was able to peak in on cases.  According to Sue the head nurse was very impressed and she thinks she'll get the job.  I guess they have one more person to interview so hopefully she'll hear next week.  You never know!!

Tomorrow we are invited to Carol's for Easter dinner.  Looking forward to it!  Martha will be there along with Carol's girls.  Maybe will see Jeff and Jacob too.  Tom was invited but Carol said he's not coming...going to the races somewhere!

I've had this week off.  Enjoyed cleaning out my perennial beds.  Some stupid deer ate all my tulips already.  I bought a bag of bulbs last fall at Costco's....oh well.




Two weeks from today we will be headed to NH and fly out the following morning to Arizona.  Looking forward to it!  I've never been to Arizona and it will be nice to see Mom and Rich and Nancy again.  It will be Molly's first plane ride too!








Forgot about celebrating Molly's 19th birthday.  She had a great day.

Also had a chance to go down to Shawn's and ride Ansel.  We went for a great trail ride and he was perfect.  Molly rode him too...I can't wait to bring him home.  The only thing I had to buy was a large girth and a fly mask for a warmblood size horse.  I was so pleased with our ride.  Sometimes the first ride of the spring can be interesting as they are feeling good.  He was perfect...calm, no spookiness...I'm very happy!

Homemade chicken noodle soup and baked sweet potatoes for dinner tonight.  Hope it will warm us up!
