What a great week... and it's not even Spring Break yet!

It was Canadian week at our house.  My dad arrived last Saturday and we promptly took him to Parkesdale Farms for their famous Strawberry Shortcake.

Dad & Michael - check out those shortcakes! 

Sunday we went to a brand new 4th service at Church at 5! Monday we had our MAPP class and it was so nice to know Grampy was home with our girls.

They spent lots of "quality" time together. 

Tuesday night Mike took Dad to an antique car show that was fun for both of them. 

Vroom! Vroom!

Then Wednesday things got busy around here.  It may not be Spring break for our girls until next week but we had visitors from Canada who are on Spring Break and a self imposed "Spring Training Break."

Chris and Del were here for Spring Training games and it was so nice of them to swing by for a visit.

The Howatt Family just before they took off for a day of roller coaster riding at Busch Gardens!!!

Thursday it was time to hit the mall and Grampy picked up a couple items to take home with him and a good book for the plane ride home.  Friday we relaxed at home and just hung out for the day until....

We took Grampy to Formaggio's for an early sixtieth birthday dinner then surprised him with a few decorations and an extra special birthday cake.

Adoption update... today has been three weeks since we had our fingerprints done.  No word yet on those.  Initially we were told they take 3-4 weeks to process, at our last class we were told they are running about 4-6 weeks. Hopefully those will be cleared within the next 3 weeks.  We should have all our personal references to pass in at our next class. We still have to book the cats vaccinations UGH! Michael and I have our physicals booked, just need to go to those appointments.
