April 2006
Hi Everyone,
Well, obviously, I am not a great blogger! Today I have added a few pictures from JANUARY and tonight I hope to upload some pictures from our APRIL trip to CA. Life just seems to roll on....
John has mowed our grass for the first time this year. It looks and smells like a hayfield! It will be better when we get the riding mower up and running. It is time for spring chores outside. The gardens are off and running so I'd better get out there and clean them up! The Earth Day crew at school cleared out the dead mums in my garden by the door. Looks like the lilies and daffodils have multiplied:-)
Spring busyness is upon us at Maple Valley H.S. We're planning for next year and trying to take care of end of the year projects while keeping our classes moving steadily along. My U.S. History class has finally made it to WWII. As I've been planning for the rest of the year, I realized that I've actually lived the rest of the historical periods that we will be covering!
We had a fantastic visit to visit Sarah and Bryan over spring break. We spent a weekend in Sacramento and met Sarah's friend Jenni and her boyfriend Chuck who have just moved there. We had a great time exploring Old Sacramento which is rich in Gold Rush and Railroad history. We spent a night in Big Sur and explored the beautiful Pacific Coast. Sarah and Bryan hosted a couple of dinner parties. What fun to be included in their circle of friends!
We are looking forward to meeting our newest greatnephew born to Ryan and Amanda just a few weeks ago! Our niece Julia plans to marry her fiance, Doug, at Bill and Kelly's home Memorial Day weekend. The family keeps expanding.
John has joined a gun club in Dimondale and is having fun shooting with new friends just a few miles from home. He is getting excited about another season of Cowboy Action Shooting. He got in quite a bit of hunting this past year with his brother Bill.
Hope you are all well. Stay in touch.
Love,
Becky
