I can't believe that it is already April. March just flew by. I haven't posted for awhile so I thought I'd get caught up. I have had a very busy month. The best part of it was that I was able to go and spend Andrea's Spring Break with her and Tra' in Oklahoma. I hadn't seen them since Thanksgiving, so I was so excited. We had such a good time. I loved being with my daughter and sewing and getting pedicures and just talking non stop. We would go to bed way to late especially the last night because we didn't want it to end. I wish I lived closer to them, so I could see them more often. Andrea and I both cried when I left.


Sean and Alec both have dates for prom. They also got to go on a horse packing trip in the mountains near Safford during their Spring Break. They didn't take a camera so we don't have any pictures but they had a really good time.

Rich and I got to go and spend a few days with Michael and Sarah and the grand kids. It was Caden's tenth birthday and we went to Texas Roadhouse for dinner. I love my handsome grandson. He is such as special boy, so talented and smart. He and his dad are writing stories together. Michael writes and Caden illustrates them. He draws really well and he is an amazing athlete.

Last Sat. was the Young Women's broadcast and because it was during Spring Break for the girls in our Stake, there was no one at the broadcast. I watch it all by myself in the Chapel. Because I am in the Stake Young Women's presidency, I represented the Stake at the broadcast. I had even set up a table with cookies and milk. It was actually a very spiritual experience. The messages were so good and it was what I needed to hear that day. The following Wednesday, we had a dinner for the girls and there mothers to show the broadcast. It turned out really nice. I made bookmarks for the girls that we past out after the broadcast. Since I had seen it already, I made the bookmark to go along with the messages. This is the only picture I have taken in awhile.

yay a post! I was so excited to see an update. March was a very busy month for us too. The best part was definitely you coming out though. Whenever I go into our back room I picture you there and I have to walk right out because it makes me sad. :( I love you mom. And I MISS you so much.
P.S. the bookmarks look great, you always do such an amazing job to make whatever you are doing so special.

I am sure it was so fun to be with Andrea. I cry every time I have to leave mom because I know it will be a long time before we see each other again. That's what happens when Arizona girls marry boys from out of state.

You are so great to go to such lengths to make special events for the girls in your stake. They are very lucky to have you.

Those bookmarks are pretty. I bet you are a wonderful young women leader.
