Easter Raccoon

For Easter this year, Joe and I decided to decorate an Easter tree.  We have a cute little ornamental peach tree just outside the back door.  We hung several Easter goodies and a bunch of plastic eggs filled with candy from the branches.  It looked so cute when we were done.  I even remembered to check the weather and make sure it wasn't going to rain all over everything.  When we all went out to the tree the next morning, there was NO candy left on the tree!  It had all been unwrapped and eaten... stupid raccoon.  Ah, well.  At least it was memorable.

Aiden is a little hard to understand in the video, because he was understandably upset.  But, try to keep an ear out for these two fantastic phrases: "There are too many Easter animals around here!" and "The Easter animals ate all my very own Peeps!"

NunSense Pics

My mom took some pictures after closing night.  I thought I'd share some of them here.  This is the whole cast!  With only 5 roles, no one had a small part.  I had a great time and made some wonderful friends.  Maybe I'll even do it again in the fall :-)

All 5 nuns: Sis. Leo, Reverend Mother, Sis. Amnesia, Sis. Hubert, Sis. Robert Anne

Here is our band.  They were totally awesome (even though there were only 4 of them).

Sis. Mary Leo (Nina) and her school friends.

Sis. Mary Amnesia (Larren) and her parents.

Sis. Mary RobertAnne (Celeste).  She is the rebel of the show.

New Bike

I'm going to try uploading video from our camera.  Here is a little clip of Aiden riding his new bike.  If you listen very carefully, you can hear him making his own soundtrack as he rides.
