April updates

This month has been a whirlwind! Partially because I was sick for a week, then on vacation for a week. But mostly because we are moving!!!!!!! I have officially accepted a position in Great Falls, MT, and we will be relocating in August. As a result, we have been busy decluttering, cleaning, painting, interviewing realtors, and just generally freaking out. :)

If you want to follow along with my Montana-related ramblings, I started another blog:  http://midlifemovetomontana.blogspot.com  (I've been numbering the posts there so they'll be easier to read in order.)

But this blog will still be devoted to family stuff... like Rose's birthday today!!!! Can you believe she's 5 already? We let her choose everything we did today, and she opted to:
-sleep in ridiculously late
-open her presents immediately upon waking
-eat both pancakes and cereal for breakfast
-go to the MN Zoo to search for a white tiger (no luck)
-eat at Noodles for mac&cheese for lunch
-play with her new Lego set after nap
-go to Noodles to get mac&cheese for dinner as well (!!!!)
-eat a piece of chocolate layer cake with chocolate frosting (decorated with chocolate chips and sprinkles)

She knows how to have a great day!!

She is such a delight! I can't imagine a better kid. She is a joy to be around, and I love her more and more every day. Can't wait to see what the coming year brings for all of us!
