Also seen on Gateway Dr.: a raccoon crossing the road, a cat, a squirrel, a fat little round bunny in the grass on the side of the road, as well as the duck using the crosswalk a couple of days ago. It's a veritable wildlife preserve.

Played a game of Cranium the other day at Marcie's house with Jim, Gene, Don #2, myself, Marcie, Ronda, Coreen, Caroleen, and Misti. It was fun, especially because of the words "curmudgeon" and "turgid". Jim's Elvis impression, Marcie's bungee jump, and Gene's DNA sculpture also were a big hit.   =)

Got some Jelly Bellies (the 40 flavor pack) for an Easter treat. Mmmmm. I think my favorite flavor is the Raspberry. It tastes nearly identical to a real raspberry. Bonny and Becky did the easter egg hunt this year again, one on Saturday at a park (we scored two eggs with Baskin-Robbin's gift certificates inside), one on Sunday in Bonny's backyard, and Becca's got another one tonight at home (inside, for Family Home Evening) that she doesn't know about yet.   =)

We attended Stake Conference this Sunday at the Sharon/Golconda chapel. I got a really good parking spot even though we were about 15 minutes late. I parked over the little ramp in front of the maintence/equipment shed on the back row of the North parking lot. No one ever parks in front of it, even though it's the perfect spot, a lot better than double-parking like some have done.

Had a wonderful meal at IHOP on Saturday morning after the Easter Egg Hunt. I had a superb chili and cheese omelette with pancakes, sides of corned beef hash and bacon, with orange juice, hot chocolate, and ice cold water to drink. I know, I sound like a pig, but thankfully I couldn't eat it all, so I brought it home and had it again for a later meal. Good stuff, truly.

Got some "Tangerine Sours" Altoids at the store a few days ago. They're quite tasty. We finally watched "Singles Ward", but I have to admit that we didn't find it that entertaining. I felt it was only mildly funny, and I don't think Misti really liked it at all. I think I'll skip "The RM" unless I can see it for free. This, unfortunately, is just another independent, church culture-centered film that just doesn't make the grade. "God's Army" was another one, but it just plain sucked.

Easter dinner was quite tasty, as we had ham and scalloped potatoes, asparagus/green beans, and fruit salad, with strawberry cake for dessert. Afterward, we all helped Becca learn some new songs, including "I jumped aboard a pirate ship". She really likes that one because she gets to jump. Forward, backward, over the deep blue sea.   =)
