Other updates

Laurie, Sean and kids were here this past weekend. It was great to have them around. They arrived her Friday night, spent part of the day on Saturday at John and Erika's, then left here Sunday after dinner. I made Chicken with Lemon Cream Sauce for dinner on Sunday and it was delicious. I've made it a couple of times before and it is really, really good. This time around I made it with half and half instead of heavy whipping cream. It was still delicious and I didn't even notice the substitution.

On Sunday night, I gave Darin and Natalie haircuts. Darin was in desperate need of one and I had procrastinated long enough. Natalie's was starting to get a bit more snarly so I thought I better cut it; although I hated the thought of cutting off those gorgeous curls. She is quite cute with her new haircut and she still has some curls, though not quite as many.

While Laurie and Sean were here this weekend, we took some family pics. After church Sunday I drove around trying to find some burning bushes with leaves still on them (at Laurie's suggestion) and found some beautiful ones in Pill Hill near St. Mary's. Here is our family pic.
