all the little ants are marching

Yesterday we had Easter at my grandparents house. Most of my cousins were there, which was nice (only missing Jessi and April). Some of them live far away now, so it was nice to see them. My brother brought his girlfriend and her son, Will. From 130 or so until 4 it was just my family there with Gordon, Grandma and Grandpa. Will really likes me and we play a lot when he comes over. Yesterday we blew bubbles and played with the dog. He's a really happy kid, laughs a lot and always wants to play. We played "trucks" for a while. This translates to me sitting on the step with him pointing out ants as he ran them over with his Matchbox trucks. Even though there was a cool breeze, the sun was out and it made being outside amazing.

I really like spending time with my family. My brother seems happier and more socialable when he's with his girlfriend. That's nice to see. I'm glad that he's happy.

After dinner my cousins, aunt, grandma and I played games. Tricia and Sandra's boyfriends were there also and they were fun. It was nice to just laugh and act silly with family.

I went home and all I could think about doing was laying on the couch. I was so tired! I haven't been sleeping well and I had to get up early for work yesterday. I went to bed at 1130 and slept until 9. It felt pretty awesome. Now we're laying around watching Mary Poppins. I work at 1 until 5. We all have short shifts today just to get our holiday pay. Ooooh IGA.
