This year we definitely had a non-traditional Easter! On Saturday night John and I went to the Elton John/Billy Joel concert. We had a wonderful time and then on Sunday morning the girls and I were picked up in a limo and driven with my mom and sister to Minneapolis where we spent the day at the Mall of America and then went to the Avril Lavigne concert. The mall was fun although most of the stores were closed because of the holiday. We did ride rides at Camp Snoopy, did some shopping at a few misc. stores and Old Navy and then had an awesome dinner at the Rainforest Cafe. The concert was sooo much fun! I love Avril Lavigne as do my girls. I thought for sure Brittany would lose her voice because she was screaming so loud.

The concert was packed which was surprising considering it was Easter Sunday. After the concert Brittany got autographed cd's from the opening bands Gob and Simple Plan. She was so excited! On Tuesday both girls couldn't wait to wear their Avril T-shirts to school. John and Anthony spent Easter at John's dad's house.

After such a long weekend I have been completely exhausted. Work has been busy and I still feel somewhat out of it. My house is a disaster and I just can't get motivated enough to do anything. I don't think we have cooked all week.

Last night the neighbors in the next building over had a loud and very public fight. It freaked my kids out who were able to witness it in the parking lot when we came home. They aren't used to fighting like that and it seemed to be getting physical. Someone called the police so it didn't go on very long, but you can tell we don't live in a small town anymore!

Did I mention that my brother is on his way home?! I had an email from him earlier this week saying that it was just about time for wog day, where he (and others on his ship) get hazed from being polywogs to shellbacks. I can't wait to see pictures. :-)

On Suday we will be having a "late" Easter dinner at our house. My mom, Bill, Addie and her boyfriend Mike will be coming. I think we are having ham but I'm not too sure, I guess I should check with John since he'll be doing the cooking. Did I mention that my house is a mess? That probably means that I should get off my ass and get some work done! lol
