I&#8217;ll take the warm weather when it comes, though. I&#8217;m certainly ready for spring!<\/p>\n<p>We headed up north on Friday afternoon. Saturday we stopped to see Gram and Gramp. Grandpa was in especially good spirits &#8211; cracking jokes and smiling a lot. I love those visits. Gram wasn&#8217;t feeling as well, but she perked up a bit and even watched the recruiting video that Bill just completed. I can&#8217;t help but be happy to have\u00a0 great visit with Lou and Lorraine!<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/bbryson.com\/erin\/files\/2008\/03\/gram-gramp-lo-erin.jpg\" alt=\"gram, gramp, lo, er\" \/> <img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/bbryson.com\/erin\/files\/2008\/03\/bill-and-lo.jpg\" alt=\"bill-and-lo.jpg\" \/><\/p>\n<p>The rest of Saturday was very low key. I napped a bit and got a good portion of my correcting done. (Ugh, assigning essays = correcting essays!) Saturday night, though, Ape and Jesse were on their way home. Since I won&#8217;t be around for Ape&#8217;s 29th birthday next weekend, we decided to celebrate last night with a little hot fudge pudding cake. Mmmm. Ape wouldn&#8217;t let me take a picture since she&#8217;d spent the day cleaning and moving &#8211; but, she was very cute.<\/p>\n<p>This morning Bill mixed up some sourdough pancakes and Dad fried them up. I even got the special Mickey Mouse pancake&#8230;<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/bbryson.com\/erin\/files\/2008\/03\/mickey-pancake.jpg\" alt=\"pancake\" \/><\/p>\n<p>We spent a little time helping Ape and Jesse unload the U-Haul into their storage unit. Then we headed up to a campsite for Bill to shoot a segment for his first BWCA cast. It was fun&#8230; I&#8217;m looking forward to seeing the finished product and then getting ready for many more episodes this summer.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/bbryson.com\/erin\/files\/2008\/03\/campsite.jpg\" alt=\"campsite\" \/><\/p>\n<p>Now it&#8217;s time to wind down.
