Some Easter Weekend/Time off Photos

Did this a couple of days

Went here too...

1 SMALL bag, 4 items, $204.00.  Oh Lulu how I love thee!

Also got my bib and chip for Bay to Breakers!!  Woot!

Colored some eggs...made me sad...thinking of Momma...We always did eggs together...

Pre-long run assembly..
Then on Saturday I began the trek North...
Driving by the entrance to my familys place that we had for some many years until Daddy passed...Cedar Point, Onalaska, Texas on Lake Livingston


Nearing the turn off for my nieces new place on Lake Livingston

Loading in the party boat

Jessie, the winner of the Easter egg hunt

Brandy, the loser of the Easter egg hunt;  My sister hid a dozen camoflaged plastic eggs with scratch offs and food gift card receipts in all of them!
Getting ready to hit the ground looking for eggs...Jessie cheating!

My sister called her out but she still got a head start!!!

more hunting....these show the hill from where the house will be down to the lake; 60ft pier being built as we speak!
Me begging Brandy to get off already and let me have my own time!!!

I had the exact same reaction you did to SR's eugene marathon recap with her bro. I commented far below yours, but just wanted to say I think you're rad for speaking the truth amongst a parade of "I'm so teary eyed reading this!!? way to go Matt!"

Love the photo recap!

Sorry that it was hard to experience your first holiday without mom :-( I bet she was there watching over though ;-)
