| Spring! |
Springtime has been busy for us this year! The yard is blooming with daffodils, tulips and many other flowers. The weather has been nice, with smatterings of rain here and there. This spring, I was awarded the "2015 M.S. Self-Help Group Leader Superhero Award" by the National MS Society at a volunteer "League of Awesome" event. This was such a nice award to receive (had I known in advance I'd have invited Steve and Maddy to join me) considering I am "retiring" from my co-leader position this year. We went to see some music at Music Millennium, then met up with Eric, Melissa and Althea for a walk to Laurelhurst Park. Maddy and I made Valentine Swirly Cookies, which were pretty yummy. We went to the World Forestry Center with the Gregoriches and Sweanys to take advantage of monthly complimentary entry to different places (benefit of our Zoo Membership). We celebrated Christy's 40th birthday and Kieran's 5th birthday. Both were fun! Maddy graduated from Pre-Penguin level swimming to Pre-Otter. I made chocolate pudding which Maddy gobbled up while wearing her new favorite cozy jammies. And Mom and Dad went on a West Coast tour to visit Mila, Mark, Tim, Aidan and Nolan, Joel, Silver and Anali and Uncle Larry and Aunt Sue. They didn't come to Portland this time - next time they'll come our way.
