Happy Easter

Blessed Easter greetings! Finally, I'm at home sitting at my desk, hooked up to my slower, than snail mail slow Internet ... but thankful all the same. What an ordeal to get the TV and computer connected! One thing after another, but finally we got a connection this afternoon. I pray this short message finds you all safe and healthy on this special day. This coming week will be my "Easter Vacation" break as the youngin's head back to school tomorrow. I promise to post more pictures throughout the week of our new home. Thanks for all the nice comments while I was "away" ...

Photo: Jacob (just a few days old). Look at that full head of hair! The picture is taking too long, I'll try to post it later :( edit: Just how long does one photo take to upload via "high speed" dial up? Any idea? still waiting ..... yawn ..... oh, my ... I'm wasting my time here. Dishes to wash ... nap to take ..... stretch ....... sip coffee ........ vacuum my office ............ change the oil in my truck ........ still here .... but not for much longer ....... Is blogger broken? Does anyone care? new edit: I just this morning dug a trench across my gravel driveway (with the help of the cable guy) to bury extra cable to one day connect to satellite Internet ... maybe then I can post pics. ***sigh*** I HATE BREAKING PROMISES!!

Hope you had a happy Easter!!
Be looking forward to "seeing" you tomorrow... The kids in Canada get Easter Monday off.... Poor little Gift has to go? I guess he likes school though so that's OK....Love Terry

Gramma Mac...You are NOT breaking promises!!
You are just making us wait longer that's all... but please don't make us wait as long as Pat says..until Jacob is in high school or until Gift is old and grey!!.........Love Terry

Welcome back, Mrs. Mac. I have checked almost every day to see if your Internet connection was working yet. Don't think of it as breaking a promise, think of it as teaching us all a little patience. Congratulations. I am sure Jacob is a total doll. God bless!
