Spring Break

On Monday we picked up our new foster son. He went to elementary school with Sassy and will hopefully attend Jr High with her, too.

On Tuesday I worked in the morning. It was cold and yucky. Wednesday we were supposed to go up the canyon and hike. Weather did not permit :(

So we went to see Alice in Wonderland instead. Then we went to the mall and got lunch after we looked for some pants (unsuccessfully, I might add) for Sassy. We ended up going to the other mall to get her some pants.

Alice was alright. At first I sat there thinking that I was just not a fantasy type person. However, as the movie went on I liked it more and more. In the end it was pretty good. I am considering buying it when it comes out.

Thursday I deep cleaned my room. While that may not sound like much fun it sure feels good to look at. Then I got my hair cut and Sassy and I got our eyebrows waxed. Tree Monkey spent the day with a couple of her friends.

Friday I talked on the phone with our grammie and then I took my foster sons to a town way north of us so the oldest one could get step 2 in his tattoo removal. It's laser removal and they are doing it for free because it's gang related. He wasn't in a gang, but he did have friends who were. He is excited to get his tattoos removed.

Today, the lovely Saturday that we had..........beautiful weather........found me and my mom having a mother/daughter day with just us two. We went to see the lovely BYU Ballroom performance. They are amazing! They are celebrating their 50th Anniversary so they had previous members do a number at the beginning. It was fun to see two couples that we know. Then I know one of the Tour Team dancers. I watched her grow up. So beautiful and graceful. She has such grace, poise, and technique. It was amazing.

Then Sassy and I went grocery shopping. She planned the meals, developed the shopping list based on what we didn't have and we went to get it. This daughter loves to cook, bake, and try new things in the kitchen. She has some allergies and food issues but finds some yummy food to create for us. She will make a young man very happy one day. She makes me happy and proud now!

Monday is back to the grindstone and working. It was a lovely break. I could have used another week just to play.
