Easter Sunday

We've been in Ukiah, CA, a week today and have a week to go. Yesterday we celebrated Easter with Julia, Beth and Jim. We had a wonderful time. We started out a little after 8:00 am and went to an Easter Egg hunt at the Elk's club. Julia did very well and had a blast. The Elks did a wonderful job with all the kids and everyone received an Easter basket and an opportunity to have their picture taken with the Easter bunny. The hunt was followed by breakfast at the Elks club, then play time at home. Late afternoon, Tom prepared some very good barbequed ribs and we took them over to the kids' house and had an outdoor picnic. After a few hot games of "Skip-Bo", we came back home. It was such a pleasant time being together for the day. Our week has flown by and we haven't done anything spectacular except spend as much time as possible with Julia. She's so much fun and loves our "moving house" so comes over at every opportunity. The weather is back to being beautiful again so we'll probably do more outside things this week. The park is one of Julia's favorites and is very close to their home. Next Monday we'll be off to Portland. Although we really look forward to being there, we'll miss our kids here.
