We have been having the weirdest weather lately. All in one day it rained, Hailed, snowed, and then was sunny. And this went on for a couple of days. It just could not decide what it wanted to do. It never snows this late in the year. We usually get a lot of rain but the snow and ice usually stop around January or February.
Easter in Boise!!!
So I recently found out that my Grandma Udy is terminally ill with cancer. She just moved from Salt Lake City to Boise to move in with my parents. So at the last minute I decided to make the 6 hour drive up to Boise to help my grandma move in and to spend a little alone time with her. I could only take a little time off of work so I drove up Thursday afternoon and drove home on Sunday(Easter day). I really enjoyed spending some time with my grandma. I don't get her all to myself very often and after learning that her days are numbered I really wanted to see her again. I tried to get a picture with her but she would not let me take one. She said she was not very photogenic. =) It was also nice to have my parents to myself that does not happen all the time. Molly and her little girl Ashlyn (pictured above) drove up on Saturday to visit as well. That little girl is adorable. I thought about sticking her in my car and keeping her as my own. But the thought of Jail time didn't seem quite so appealing. As a bonus one of my best friends from High School Kim was in Boise visiting family that weekend as well. We were able to meet up for a little bit and catch up. It was great to see her. I am so glad I made the decision to go. It is a trip I will always remember.

We loved having you visit, and I think it will be a time we all remember. Grandma Udy loved having the help and making her adjustment a little easier.
I know what you mean about the weather, this has been a crazy year. It's still cold in Idaho but should be better next week.

Lindsay Lou,
I don't know why I ever called you that, but it stuck. I love your Labs they are beautiful. Your chocolate must be the twin to mine(Crash)they look identical. I found you through Stacey's blog we have a a friend in common from San Berdernadino.

Can remind you of how much I love your house? What a nice picture. oh yeah and I guess Ashlyn's kinda cute too.=)
Didn't know where to post it, but I am also Elinore Dashwood in your quiz.
I have never seen where you work and probably won't get there for awhile. If you get a chance take pictures of the bldg and your desk. Even people there.
Lindsey-It was nice to hear from you and we hope all is well with you. We wish you the best in your adoption journey. We feel so blessed to have been able to adopt four beautiful children of God. We would love to talk to you if you have any questions about our experiences.

I hear you about the blasted weather!!! Joe here from Seattle, and we experienced (obviously) the same roller coaster weather last weekend. This weekend, Shalyn was dying to feel the real sunshine, so we jumped over to the other side of the cascade mountains over in Lake Chelan...it is sunny and nice!!
It was fun to find your blog site. Shalyn and I would love to come on down to see you guys on a weekend. Let's see if we can hook-up. Love the house pics! Shalyn wants your countertops!
