I had Good Friday off so I took the kids to the Easter breakfast at their preschool. Missy performed with her class (such as she always does, not singing, not doing the motions, not wearing the headgear she had made in class...Beth had given her some bunny ears to wear, and she wore those, refusing to put on her class-made hat after the teacher called it a "bonnet" because, she said, she is not a baby) with Alex and me in the audience, then we had some breakfast casserole, which both kids actually ate some of. Later on, Beth and I took the kids to American Countryside Farmers Market near Mishawaka and met the Rowes there. I guess the place is pretty new; they’ve got plans for an indoor water park and everything there too. But right now they’ve got a bunch of stalls for people to sell crafty things and flavored popcorn and cookware, inside a gi-normous barn with 3 cupolas. We got buffalo chili dogs for lunch. Saturday was a Katie day, but there was nothing Beth and I wanted to see at the movies so instead we went to Churchill’s and watched NCAA basketball and ‘The Passion of the Christ" with them. Speaking of which, I filled out a bracket at work and bet a guy $1 that mine was better than his (he picked his alma mater Clemson for final 4, and he challenged me when I mocked him). After church on Sunday, Ronnie and DeeAnn invited us and the kids to lunch at Boathouse, their treat (very nice of them) and over to their house afterwards for more NCAA basketball (watching Tennessee vs. Butler).
