Where did MARCH go???!!!

Well, I completely missed the month of MARCH! Here we are, April 3rd and I find myself behind. Does that tell you anything? Yes, March, like most other months in the life of the Sivyer family, was BUSY! I believe I will just leave the summation at that and move on to APRIL :)

We may have to change the name of this blog to "BOAT LIFE". That's right, folks, we bought another boat! A 19' Twin Vee Bay Cat. Don has a new love :( Seriously, he is like a kid on Christmas morning! We just picked it up yesterday, spent the entire day on the water and he got up at 7am this morning to clean it up, flush out the engine and will be spending most of the afternoon waxing the hull and doing a hundred other things to it, I am sure! We had a BLAST!

Hannah turns the big 1-5 tomorrow, learner's permit looming on the horizon and Spring Break having begun yesterday. Ain't it great to be alive??!!! We spent a fun weekend at Cape San Blas last Friday, Saturday and Sunday. She took her friend, Gina (whom we ADORE), and we had such a fun time. She is blooming into such a beautiful young lady. She has a bit of maturing to do but, that will come with time.

Claire got her braces on Thursday - painful is how she might describe her mouth right now. She looks so different. Not like my thumb-sucking baby anymore :( She took her friend, Laura (another Q-T) to the beach last weekend. Two skinny-minis in bikinis!!!!! Claire is growing up so beautifully! She will be receiving an Academic Medallion from Duke University in May for her S.A.T. scores being so high - WOW! and has been invited to be inducted into the NJHS in May. We are blessed by our girls!

I am furloughing, working, keeping up with 10 chickens (we acquired 7 female chicks in March), 4 dogs, 2 BUSY girls and 1 WONDERFUL husband. Life continues to be fast-paced but, I LOVE IT!!! Here's the "run-down" for April:

1. Lots of BOAT trips, I am sure!
2. Oboe lessons continue for Hannah
3. Dance continues for Claire - recital is on her 13th birthday this year!
4. Hannah marches Rose Show parade
5. Hannah goes to Disney for competition with TCCHS Band
6. CRCT for Claire
7. End of course tests for Hannah
8. Work for me and Don!

AMEN!

HAPPY EASTER to ALL - Praise God; HE IS RISEN!!!
