The 4 oldest kids are attending a Lenten Retreat with our homeschool group today.

The weekend has a few things going on, but we'll also get to enjoy some good 'ole 'home time' as a family.

Tomorrow night is the Father Daughter Dance with our AHG troop. Stay tuned for pictures. The girls picked out some cute dresses this year.

#2 is planning and planning his birthday events...the BIG double digit year has finally come for him!

#4 receives her First Holy Communion in early May. I've been falling behind helping her get prepared and I haven't done a good job making it 'fun' for her. I'm going to work on that!

We have a surprise planned for the kids come Monday. Sometimes my kids read my blog, so stay tuned for the details to be posted.

I'm so pleased with how this Lent has gone so far.  God has given me strength beyond my comprehension.  Lent is hard, but hard can be so good! I know that sounds crazy, but I bet a lot of you understand.
