New Lists... a Lot to Cover

Sorry for the inconsistency in blog posts, folks.

That said, of course, a lot has happened since the last post.

1. The cruise is less than 2 weeks away and things are about to get busy as our schedule ramps up toward our vacation. Three of Christa's siblings will be staying at our house and we expect the first (her brother) to arrive this weekend. Her brother is awesome, and I am stoked.

2. I'm going camping this weekend with the guys from community group. Should be a blast and will be a great opportunity to get to know them better. I am leading a group next semester, so they need to get to know me, too.

3. Went to Nashville with John, our company salesman, for an Overhead Door Dealer Conference. (We provide software tailored to the OHD industry) We have a lot in common as far as our musical and entertainment tastes go, so we had a lot of fun. Nashville is pretty cool, but we stopped in Memphis on the way back and it was incredible! Memphis is waaaay cooler.

4.Work has been slow lately. Now that the door show is over and I'm no longer spending all my time preparing for it, my plate is looking sparse.

5. Christa is now scuba certified! One less frustrating activity on our vacation prep list...

6. Christa and I lead our first community group meeting last night and it went well. It went a long way toward easing our anxiety about volunteering for this leadership role. Especially since neither of us have any advantageous experience to help keep us from freaking out about this new weight of responsibility. Phew!

7. Bailey is starting to get over her perpetual ear infections...we think. But, Caden definitely has severe seasonal allergies like his poppa and has been dealing with a large excess of mucous lately.

8. I have no idea what to do for mother's day...yikes!

9. Wolverine wasn't as good as Iron Man or the Dark Knight, but it was definitely good.

10. Star Trek comes out this weekend, and I think it will easily end up being the best movie of the summer. That's saying a lot considering the number of awesome-sounding movies that are supposed to come out.
