March


Whoops. I missed March. Well. Here's a summary:

March 7th was Houston's birthday, and he's now 17 and is a giant of a man-child. He's something like 6'3", and then wears these boots that make him another inch or so taller, so he just towers over everyone. But he's still sweet and a little goofy and is just really nice to everyone around him. He's a little bit like a big puppy, now that i think about it. A giant puppy who really likes to play on his computer. (Oh. He's spent the past year building a computer, which currently has 3 monitors and takes up a giant desk.)


The end of March and the beginning of April was Spring Break. We went down to Kentucky to visit Juanito's family. The kids stayed at Juanito's mom's house, while Juanito and i were a block away at a lovely little bed and breakfast. We went out to spend part of Sunday at Juanito's dad and brother's place. We got to see his youngest brother, who we've barely seen in years. And we visited Mammoth Caves, which was awesome. The last time we were there, the kids were very little, and they remember almost nothing from that trip. (Katrina: "I remember the frogs....")

Yesterday it snowed. On April 14th. A lot. Even Zane was all, "No. There should not be snow. This sucks." And he LOVES snow.
