Let Us Always Meet With A Smile...

It was Andy's 21st Birthday yesterday, we had a great time with friends and family at Boundary Bay Brewery! I couldn't remember if it was Andy's birthday or mine, after feeling week in the knees due to 1/2 a beer, boy I forgot what it felt like to have a drink! Don't worry Cate didn't have to suffer the ill effects of my carelessness, Chris drove us home and I "pumped and dumped".

Cate is now enjoying her "walker" more then ever. Although at times she feels like she should be able to "walk" with out it, her legs and feet think otherwise!

Coach Chris makes his debut today!!! Chris is helping coach with the local boy's and girl's club baseball league. His team is made up of 9-10 year old boys, who are very eager to learn the game. Chris finally gets to put all his years of baseball to good use! I think this will be the first year Chris actually wants the "A's" to do well!!! For the next 3 months we bleed green and gold!!! GO A's!!!!

We all had a great time on Easter, even though the weather was horrendous & Mass was an hour and 45 minutes long. On a positive note we all learned that Papa will most likely be voting for Obama!!! We have taken him to the dark side! Cate thanks you in advance Papa!!!

Thanks to the Easter Bunny for bringing Cate so many great toys, the bubbles are her favorite!!

Cate had a great time eating and drinking with friends at this great family tradition!
