Spring is here!



Spring has sprung in our little corner of paradise! Since I posted last we have had 2 birthdays, a dance performance to fund Amber's Memorial Scholarship, Easter, and now we are on spring break. Our little family unit has been busier than ever.


Matt's birthday in Feb. was celebrated at his parents, along with his bro, Chris. Bridgett missed the whole thing as she was home nursing Jayden who was throwing up.

Now into March, our Baby Doll, Addison, had his 2nd birthday party the day before St. Patricks Day. Mommy decorated everything in green and went all out. Everyone had fun, especially Addison, who was able to hold his own this year opening his presents.

The following week, I was backstage at the Clark Center helping herd the AGHS Dance Co. from dressing to stage. Past and Present is the name of the show every year. The group was very mature and no one got hurt or was rude. With 35 high school students, including 10 boys, it was a great performance and was well received by the audience. Proceeds go to the Amber Carter Memorial Scholarship Fund which has given 23 scholarships so far since 2000. These kids know about Amber, her talent, courage, and love of dance. We hope to raise $4000 this year. Bridgett and my friend Suzanne, sold 4 This is a Good Day to Live, also a fund raiser for the scholarship.
Lastly, Easter came way too quickly, but the bunny made it on time to shower us with eggs galore and candy. We colored eggs the day before and even though PaPa had to work, we still had fun. Easter was spent hunting for eggs, playing outside, and just being together.We also had a little friend, Berlin, with us that day.
