91 Weeks & Easter

So, not only is today Easter, but it is Jeffrey's 42nd birthday!  Carmen had her first Easter egg hunt (see rather long but very cute video below), and then we went over to Grandma & Grandaddy's for breakfast, along with Auntie Georgia and Carmen's cousins Zach and Baz.  It was lovely family time, and Zach and Baz also treated Carmen to an Easter egg treasure hunt with clues, and she was so excited.  It was really fun to see her enjoying her hunts, and it has made it a very memorable Easter.  This afternoon we went to the Golfy to get a drink, and then on to the Commercial Hotel where they were holding a family event with live music.  The children's area was a total mosh pit, but it didn't seem to deter Carmen who fell off the slide and got several bumps and bruises but kept going back for more.  All in all, a really good day.

Also, a good week - I got to go to Sydney for two nights at the Westin Hotel (thank you Auntie Georgia!!).  I spent Thursday visiting the Contemporary Museum of Art as well as the Art Gallery of NSW.  It was such a needed break, and so great to see some art work up close again.  I also got to sleep soundly, and had my first bath in almost two years.  The little luxuries!  We also caught up with Sting for dinner and two of my close friends, so it was a really good little getaway.  Carmen went to Grandma's for the three days, and Jeffrey stayed home for his own little break.  I think his break wasn't quite as nice as mine, but a break all the same!
