The Winner Is...

Ok one last birthday photo and post. I'm starting out with a bad photo of me. My sinus infection turned my nose bright red, and I don't have a good photo editor, so I had to leave it. We aren't sure why my neice wasn't smiling, but we all had a good laugh at her crazy face. As you can see someone did buy me a beer, a beer brewer that is.

My parents gave me a home brewery and a boquet. What was cool was it took me a bit to realize that the boquet wasn't just flowers, it was money also. I guess similar to a money tree? So I have my spending money for Vegas and my aunt and uncle have promised to give me tips on all the ways to have a great time without spending too much so I can make the most of what was given to me. Because it's a business trip, my food expenses will all be reimbursed. I still plan to make the most of the inexpensive, yet good buffets. I work for a non-profit so we have to be a good steward of the money (and the gang-bangers broke out yet another window this week).

And now the announcement you have all been waiting for! I asked Kaia to pick a number between 1 and 11. She chose: 5. So the winner of my first ever blog give away is Julieann! So send me an email with the hat of your choice, and your address, and I'll be sending you a package!

This is usually Show & Tell Friday but Kelli is taking Easter weekend off to enjoy her family. We plan to enjoy ourselves at our home. Saturday we will scope out a possible camping spot in the Yakima River Canyon. We will also clean up the trailer and restock it for camping season.

Sunday we have a sunrise service, followed by breakfast cooked by the elders. Then I'm teaching Sunday school, and we have our Easter worship service followed by egg hunt. Sunday afternoon we have a birthday party for our friend Jeff. Showers are predicted for us on Sunday, but we will still enjoy ourselves. I hope you all have a wonderful Easter!
