Ok, I guess we are not making a very good effort at this blog thing. Who has time? Every step to get information and pictures loaded just requires a lot of time. Too many big event have happened over the past month or so, so I am pushing myself to do it.
On April 10th and 11th Richie graduated from BYU I. On Sunday Richie blessed Miles. It was a fun weekend with Rachel's family hunting for eggs, decorating cookies and getting lots of kisses from Miles. I kept telling Miles he was born to be kissed. The boys got in a game of frisbee golf which made Richie happy. Jacob did a lot of driving up in Idaho working on his driving hours. I love drivers ed time. It is so unstressful!
Ross came home the next weekend and we made a trip up to Nampa to see family there. We spent time with Grandpa and Grandma Ewing on work projects, lunch at Golden Corral and Grandpa sharing his life history with us. It was a wonderful weekend.
During the rest of that week we worked hard to finish up purchasing all the items Ross needed for his mission. It seemed like a never ending list to me. Somehow Ross managed to fit everything into the two suitcases and stay under the weight limits. I thought that was a miracle.
Saturday, April 25th we had family pictures taken in the morning, Jeffery's Eagle court of honor was in the afternoon. The rest of the day was spent playing and visiting with family and friends.
Sunday, April 26th, Ross spoke in sacrament meeting. There were three other wonderful speakers and an absolutely gorgeous violin/piano number. The spirit abounded in the meeting and we were all enriched. Lots of family and friends came over afterwards. It was a bit tricky feeding them all in the house since it was raining, but somehow we managed (another one of those miracles).
Wednesday, April 29th, we headed to the MTC before noon. Right as we got there the fire alarms went off, so we were outside for a short bit. Then we headed into the room to watch the Mormon ads before the meeting started. I think Ross was ready for the meeting to be over with, so he could get going. Parting hugs were soon made and Ross hurriedly made for the exit door with a grin from ear to ear on his face. How can parents be sad when their child is so happy? It was a good day.
Life just keeps going no matter how many grand events you have going on. School still has to be done and the lawns mowed. We just keep working at life every day. It is good.
We are enjoying having Jason, David's nephew live with us for the summer. You can never have too many boys around. I guesss this catches us up on events. Some day maybe I'll take time to write some of my thoughts.
