Birthdays and other fun

It has been a couple of weeks since I last posted. I keep meaning to take the time to post but then something else jumps in and takes that time. Oh well.

The last couple of weeks have been good for Darrin and I. March 10-14 was Bunny Time at the studio so Darrin was chasing bunnies and 2 year olds around trying to capture cute pictures of them. We didn't get chicks and ducks this year. That was just fine with me because I always had to clean their cage and they stunk. They were adorable but stinky. The bunny is not much better but at least we only have one. He is already gone. Yeah!

Avalon is looking beautiful. I will try to post some pictures of it soon. We put in a hundred or so plants on Friday. They look beautiful in the flower beds and really help it look more finished. Our wildflowers are starting to come up and we look forward to a great season this year. Darrin's Dad is working on the well house and the irrigation guy is getting our watering system all set up. We have a wedding April 19th at Avalon so everything has to be cleaned up by then. Then we have two weddings in May. I don't think I will know what to do with all my free time when Avalon is mostly finished and is just in the "maintenance" stage. We will always have something to do out there but at least it will be mostly finished.

Darrin's 39th Birthday was on Friday the 21st. We went out to eat for sushi with some friends that night. Darrin got a Anthony Bourdain cook book, a few movies and some Transformers peel and stick decorations for the wall.... :). We went to Houston the next day and had Dim Sum with some other friends. It was nice. For those who don't know, dim sum is mostly a Chinese meal where ladies walk around with carts and there are different food items on the carts. You can select what you want from each cart and each item has a price. It is mostly dumplings, meat dishes and noodle dishes. There are also unique things like chicken feet, tripe and other things that they serve that I don't even know what it is. But what we do get is really good and it is fun.

I had better get going. Sorry for the long post. Hope you have a great day!
