Warmer weather, A/C on. Enjoyed hearing the T, K, and C play some violin and Piano yesterday.... They don't play as often as we would like.

D is busy at work but grateful he still has a job. Dedicated to his workout. Celebrated with his Dad's birthday on Saturday. He knows he will have another Birthday soon also.

S preparing for everyone to be back home. Her job (mother) seems to change and require her to stretch and grow, sometimes painfully. She realizes how many mistakes she makes....Wonders if she will ever get it right. Looking forward to Women's Conference this weekend. Preparing May craft project. Visited WHS to check out what they have for Nate there next Year. Loves Best of EFY. I guess I just can't grow up. So glad sharing time is over for a few months.

T has been moving things home for several weeks...Her last final is on Wednesday. Then she will be glad to be back at home to work at the pool. Her room is not big enough to hold all her collections.... She has new curtains in her room.

K is officially Elder Parkinson. He has his last final on Friday and will go through the Temple on Saturday. What a mature young man. He will move home and work in Logan unless another job option becomes available closer to home. Got a letter from his Mission President in Ukraine, with Ukraine stamps and postage.

N crashed on a bike ride with Dad on Monday and has wounds on both elbows... He is the Band aid King. He is becoming more independent. He is picking his own clothes and even brushed his own teeth last week. Like his older brother is a computer junkie. Working on memorizing a Piano song for his recital. Attended Best of EFY with cousins, C, mom, and Grandma.

C is researching North Carolina for a Report in school. She is getting more mail than all of us combined. She will be Dorthy from the Wizard of Oz in her school play. Attended Best of EFY in BC Tabernacle, it is the first time she has seen the insides of that awesome building.

Great weekend, sunshine and yummy food.

C finger is all better that she jammed last week. We went to State(D,S,N and G Smith) with her Friday night for PT and took 3rd in Double Mini and Tramp and 6th on the floor. Qualified for Nationals in Tramp and floor. Didn't get home til Midnight. Good Job C.

N still working(tread milling) for a Cyber chase game. He loves Mutual with D on Wednesdays. Actually brushed his own teeth once last week. Is getting a little more independent and cooperative about things he wants to do. He likes to choose his own clothes more often now. He thinks it is cool to wear other peoples compression pants around the house, lovely sight. Maybe he should buy some.....

K was home to signed his Visa Papers that were returned from the travel Department. How did we miss that? Monday we(S,N,C,K) went to the BC CTR clothing shop and looked for a couple of hours for his mission clothes. He was scheduled to be ordained an Elder, but somehow the Bishop forgot to do it. So we had all the family here anyway, we will try for next week. Hoping he will be able to go to the temple on May 2nd.

T and H were here for the weekend. We didn't see them much, they were off playing with friends. But did stay long enough to make a couple of batches of brownies for us to eat and clean her room. T taught a RS Lesson and bet she did an awesome job.

S planted some starts but the dog promptly ate them right out of the garden....Argggh. S is still tending some Herb starts, wondering if a green thumb is really cheaper than just buying mature plants later in the year. Varnishing the cabinet downstairs. Got some funny looks for saying "Dang" in Sharing time....

D worked hard on the yard all day Saturday and put together his new BBQ grill. Mowed the lawn got the Basketball standard back in working order.He made sure everyone's taxes were in on time, what a great guy.

Easter Weekend

Sunday was a beautiful day to remember our Savior. We are so blessed. We should think of him more often.

We made it to Wellsville to see D Parents and D had a great time hiding eggs for the kids and playing with his brother. D is running and biking with a YM in our ward and doing great. Doing lots of bike repair for the YM in our Ward.

T played beautifully in 2 Sacrament meetings. What great talent. Date on Friday and also went to the Jazz game on Saturday with B. 3 more weeks of School.

K made it home Saturday in time to watch Outlaw trail with G Smith. Got his passport papers in the mail... Now the Visa stuff. He will become an Elder on Sunday the 19th and go through the Temple on May 2nd after finals are over. With much bickering and only a day of practicing K and T played my favorite song: "I know that my Redeemer lives" together in their ward.

N did great on his talk, and loves the Spring Break from school. He has all his homework done.. thanks to D. Dressed in Belle or Alice costume at G and gave us all a good laugh.

C Injured her left pinkie in Gym so she is on the mend and looking forward to State in Heber on Friday.

S is glad the snow has melted and thinks she may have to replant the peas and lettuce she lost. Did sharing time in Primary and can't wait to have all the kids back in the same house in 19 days.

I am the Mother of a 21 year old!
