Spring is Good - Friday April 9

Mom, Rowan, and Della at the Orchard Creek

Interesting week for us. We got an offer on our house and accepted it. Next step finalizing things with the sale and then getting a new place where Della can live with us. We all went out to see Della this evening to put a blanket on her for the cold night. Rowan loved the kitties and the horses at the barn. She better, she'll be seeing more of Big D!

Happy Birthday's this past week to cousin Gus and Nana Brenda. Gus turned 2 on Thursday and Nana, 29 on Wednesday!  ; )

Just how did they come up with Hot Tub Time Machine? The movie director and John Cusack have worked together several times in the past and that helps. Only 28 days to Iron Man 2., could it be as big a hit as The Dark Knight? [IMDb.com & Chicago Tribune & LA Times]
