The Grand Canyon

Jim had a birthday on March 5th. Our kids were gone for the weekend so we took advantage of the time alone and ran away for a couple days. Our plans changed last minute due to weather so we decided to head a little further south than Zions. I was very excited about our change of plans as I had never been to the Grand Canyon. Jim went as a "little pup" but didn't remember much. We had a very relaxing drive and enjoyed the time away from the craziness of life. Enjoying God's creations always seems to bring a sense of peace and calm for me. Enjoy the beautiful pictures and claim a second of peace for yourself!

Bobcat Award

Trevor recieved his bobcat in February. (For those of you who know as much as I do about scouting, this is the first award a scouter can earn.) He was presented his award by his dad and got to pin the mother's pin on me. He was very excited to get his first award, but a little nervous about poking me with the pin. Way to go Trevor!

Grandparents Day

Ellie had Grandparent's Day in her 2nd grade classroom last month. They performed a 30 minute program-singing, dancing, and reciting poems. Ellie did a great job. Here is a picture of her with her teacher, Mrs. Whetman.
