Easter Busyness

It seems that whenever I have a lot to blog about I'm too busy to actually post it. We just returned from two weeks in Utah. Dave was travelling the world for work (New Zealand, Australia, Japan and Korea) and my family talked me into coming for a visit. We had a great time catching up with old friends and spending time with my family (including my grandparents who just moved to Utah).

Dave was able to join us for Easter weekend before we flew home. The girls had fun at a community Easter egg hunt on Saturday and then finding eggs and of course playing with the goodies in their baskets on Sunday. Grandma bought them their cute dresses. Thanks Grandma!

The weather was so beautiful there (in the 70s). The trees had blossomed and the grass was green. It made it very difficult to return to winter in Minnesota (30-degree temps and everything still brown as it could be).


Dave enjoyed returning to Tokyo -- the first time since we moved back. He visited a handful of old friends, brushed up on his Japanese, and even had time to be a tourist. He visited Tsukiji (an early-morning fish market) and watched the Sumo Wrestlers practice. Somewhere in there he worked too. He spent the most time in Tokyo. It was his first time in Australia and New Zealand but didn't have time to sight see because the only thing he was able to do other than work was shop for clothes. Delta lost his garment bag with his suits in it! What a pain!




I enjoyed getting to know my soon-to-be sister in law Julia. She and Spencer plan to be married in July. It's fun to think I am going to have another sister! I took their engagment pictures while I was there, and it reminded me why I like my nice camera so much better than our digital. I think our digital camera is junk. Maybe someday we can update our digital camera. But not this week...I'll have to blog later about our expenses for the coming week.
