So far the ant poison seems to be working. I haven't seen even one stray ant. Many of the other families in our apartment building have been complaining about the ant problem and I guess the managers would have to do some major war against these industrious and busy little creatures if they wanted the complex to be ant free. I'm sure we'll see a few swarms before the summer is out.

This weekend was an enjoyable one. Saturday I worked as usual and Chris had an fun day with Anders. They like their "man Saturdays" filled with Costco (samples), Chick-Fillet, fun at the park, and just hanging around in various stages of comfortable undress. On Sunday Chris went to Malibu for church and afterwards had a meeting until around 5:00. I decided that I didn't want to hang around that late so Anders and I went to church at Granada. It's always enjoyable to visit my home church. The nursery care is always so great. They are well organized and there are always a group of kind ladies who volunteer. Anders loves going and never makes a peep about being dropped off. He just waves me away as he is carried into the room with LOTS of new toys!
After church was a Del Taco lunch with my folks and then home for the coveted Sunday afternoon nap. Chris' friend Todd made the trek to our house from Santa Monica and hung around for a while. Then he and Chris went to the Yard House in nearby Brea. The Yard House allegedly has the biggest selection of beers on tap in North America. Chris was excited to have a good Belgium brew and Todd was looking forward to a local Colorado variety. I'm always glad when Chris has a chance to hang out with one of his guy friends. It's hard to live so far away from all of the friends he made when he moved here from Cincinnati over nine years ago.
Oh, and the weekend was kicked off with a girls night out with some friends of mine that involved a local Mexican restaurant and a movie. Then Saturday our friends Scott and Laura were gracious enough to have us over for dinner. Anders had a blast with their girls and was completely spent by the time we got home at close to 10:00! So, it was a fun weekend for all of us.

We are still working on Anders behaviour but it seems to have gotten a little better since some of his molars have come in.
