Too much fun?

As you can see I have added lots of extra pictures from Easter. We had a blast!! It was a fun filled weekend, yet crazy at the same time!

Our house is really quiet lately. I have the next few days off, so I am looking forward to being able to relax just a bit. I did get a phone call this morning to see if I would come in to work. I already had an appointment at 12:30pm that I had canceled twice already - so needless to say, I did not go in! WHEW!

Michelle was such an awesome, caring person. She was actually my sister Summer's "friend". She spent a lot time at our house. I remember her infectious smile!!! You could walk into the room in a really bad mood, and just seeing Michelle smile would change how you felt. Michelle had the biggest heart and always tried to find the positive in everything.

We called Michelle "chipmunk" at our house. Everytime she smiled, which was all the time, her cheeks would poke out and her eyes would disappear. We would ask her where her eyes were. Numerous belly laughs were brought on by Michelle and my sister and their funny ways. She loved ice cream. If it was not in the house, then her and Summer would go to the store and get some. Of course they brought it back and would only share it with their "favorites". I guess that included me, because if I was home, then I would reap the reward.

Michelle felt more like a sister to me than one of my little sister's friends. I will miss Michelle. My heart aches for her parents, husband and two young boys. Michelle used to always tell us that she would die young, too young. We told her that she didn't know what she was talking about. Maybe she knew more than what we ever gave her credit for.

I know Michelle that you are with your other siblings now. I will terribly miss hearing from Summer about the updates on your life. You have influenced me in ways that will always be for good. Till we meet again......

So long.....farewell.....

that's right - the Mills family has found a place to live. I think they are really excited to have their own place with their own stuff and space!! I cannot blame them. My house is far from the Sheraton.

Anyway, they should be able to move into their place sometime this weekend. Madisen is really, really, really sad. Did I mention that she is really sad? She is upset because I told her that the Mills Family was moving into their own place and I was going to miss them. She said something to the fact of - 'you mean it will just be me and the dog again!'. She was not too happy. I reminded her that her dad and I will still be here. She just gave me one of those 7 years old - turning 8, but I think I am turning 21 looks. Such drama!!

Our family will really miss the Mills Family. We are excited that they will only be about 12 minutes from our house. Yes - Aunt Alicha timed it for us! :0)
