Bonjour,

The kids had a good first day of their break from school.  They helped Daddy clean out the pool this morning; then, we started filling it up.  It is going to take a while because our water supply is rather limited due to the dry season.  It is about knee high on the boys right now.
Then, the kids came inside to help do some cleaning.  As soon as they got the approval, they were back outside again.
I worked on laundry most of the morning.  Joe got the pool pump up and running.
After naps, the kids went back out to play in the pool.  Then, we had our egg hunt.  I took some pictures.  I put the chip in the computer and got sidetracked.  I put the chip back in the camera and deleted the pictures before I realized that I had not put them on the computer yet.  Oh well!
The kid watched Little Rascals tonight.  Bonnie was giving us a play by play account.  When they heard the kids talking about pickles, they all decided that they needed some pickles.
Easter Monday is also a holiday here.  So, we did not even try to venture out anywhere today.
A demain,
Joe, Laura, Gilbert, Danny, and Bonnie
