March 27th 2005 :: Brothers? After our traditional Slichau/Morasastry Easter Brunch at the Flagstaff House, Chris and I posed for a picture – prompting an onlooker to speculate that we must be brothers…
March 25-27th 2005 :: Chris and Saira came to visit us to make sure we didn’t break a 5 year string of Easters together! The girls had a spa afternoon on Saturday, while Chris and Mark had their own relaxation therapy at a downtown tavern. Then Saturday evening we went out for dinner at Bloom feeling refreshed and in good spirits!
March 26th 2005 :: I prodded and pushed our landscaper into finally getting our firepit and sitting wall done. He didn’t finish it, but got enough done to allow us to bring in “The Gas Connection” to hook up the firepit to our main gas line. We sat around it Saturday night and that thing puts out some serious heat. 150-200,000 BTUs apparently! I’ll be interested to see our gas bill next month.
March 26th 2005 :: Our long awaited breakfast table arrived on Saturday. We went shopping for it 6 weeks ago, and now it finally arrived. It also was the impetus to put together a present Chloe gave Mark for his birthday last year – the Norman 69 light, that came in 69 pieces. Pretty sweet!
And finished off the day with some presents, pizza and of course, Beer! 
We hung a ceiling fan, painted an art niche for our water fountain, planted some trees…
After the hike we headed to the Home Depot to get a few plants and some supplies for our house projects – the little black pony is great for trees!
… a few drops of rain came down, but we continued on… 
March 20, 2005: Happy 32nd Birthday Mark – We decided to take a walk in the Flat Irons for Marks birthday…
March 19th, 2005: Mark and Flat Neala share an espresso with some special sugars!
