Spring Fever?

Well, it has been a while since I have posted. A lot has happened. I will start with the end of our body cleanse. We ended up taking a break for the last weekend and extending it for an additional 2 days. We had a party and a potluck that weekend. Everyone but me had lost at least 10 pounds and everyone but me cheated. I was very discouraged. The following Monday and Tuesday I did the shake meal shake but when it came to fasting those last 2 days I could not do it and no one else was doing it. So I lost 5 pounds and have as of today gained 3 off them back. The rest of the group seems to be keeping most of theirs off still. I am not happy.

Last week the 4 of us flew to Venice, Florida for my grandfathers funeral. It was so nice to see all of our family again. The girls had a fantastic time spending time with their Banny (My mom) and getting re-acquainted with their great-aunts, great-uncles, and aunts. We spent time on the beach and swimming in the pool. The funeral itself was beautiful. It is a shame that we learn so many interesting things about our loved ones after they die. Why don't we just spend a little time talking with and learning from our loved ones?

We got home just in time to enjoy one 50 degree day. Well it turned out to be more like 45 degrees but we were determined to go down to the driving range and hit some golf balls. After an hour of that we decided to go and play the front 9. This was my first time playing on a real golf course. I did take a couple of lessons about 12 years ago but we could not really afford to golf so what was the point. I was playing with a knock off set of men's clubs that we bought at the swap meet. I did not have a driver or a putter. Needless to say it was easy to figure out my score once I realized you can not score any higher than double par. I had fun but I was really frustrated when I realized that Madison could out drive me. Needless to say, I had to go get some new clubs. We actually found a set of Ladies Lefty Clubs for a great price. These clubs rarely are carried in the golf stores so I was thrilled. Then the weather changed and we had snow for the last 2 days.

So, we are supposed to have the rest of the week in the 50's and we are itching to get back out on the range to see if I can actually beat my 6 year old daughter. We are going to our friends home for Easter dinner on Sunday, that should be lots of fun. Keith has been is LA and Flagstaff this week and will be home Thursday night. That about covers it. We have lots of new pix on the photo site so check it out with the link on the right.
