Thursday Beth and I took Alex to the dentist in Fort Wayne once again; he had another filling put in. I went along because he was really scared, despite the fact that he had done it before and he came through like a trooper then. It was over in maybe 15 minutes. I missed half a day of work for it. Bible study was at our house on Friday; Mike and Cindy came and seemed to enjoy it and said they’re going to keep coming. Saturday, we took the kids to McD’s for lunch and looked around the new furniture store in town in the afternoon. Beth really felt like taking a break so we hired Jenny to babysit (she brought her little sister Annie, who is great friends with Alex and Missy) in the evening while we went to Goshen to eat at Wild Wings and play trivia. I dominated the whole place in both rounds I played. Sunday we kept the kids home from church due to the colds, but decided they were well enough to go to the Easter egg hunt, which was very nice. The day was sunny, maybe the first time for that in weeks, and the ground not too soggy. The kids loved it. It was even warm enough in the afternoon for me to go out and rake some leaves that have been lying on the ground since fall, and the kids played outside for most of the time I was working as well. We skipped movie night due again to the colds. We should have kept them inside all day but they have been so desperate to get out lately we let them go.
