Fast Quarter

This year is already a quarter done! Where does the time go.
Haven't done a blog for a long time but we're still going and keeping busy with family.
New Year's Day is always celebrated at Lori's. This time we had brunch. Umm..very good.

The weather was like spring. Isaac played basketball outside.

Becca removed Christmas lights from the roof.
And the kids played outside on swings, trampoline, and other fun stuff.

January 24th.....we got some snow!

We had a fun party at Ken's along with white elephant gifts. Ken and Becky modeled the classy T shirts they received.

We have fun seeing the kids in their school plays. This year Allie's Jr. High did Bye Bye Birdie. Allie did a fabulous job doing the part of Ursula.

Happy 9th birthday to Isaac. He's a fun little guy and we love him very much.

Bernell always cooks Valentine's dinner. Umm...good. He made some dutch oven meat and potatoes. Always a treat!

Becky likes to try her hand at cooking, too. She make the best Lihapiirakka (Finnish meat pies). She has now perfected it! Sooo good!

Our little Ava and Liam turned 5 this February. Two very busy little kids. We love them very much!

We went on a cruise to Hawaii 1st of March. Enjoyed the cruise but don't feel like we've been to Hawaii. It rained heavy almost every day so we saw very little of the islands.

Our oldest grandson, Breton, turned 12 in March so he's our first of our next generation to receive the priesthood. He'll make a good Deacon. We love you, Breton.

Had a casual Sunday at Lori's. Megan and Becca sang songs from the Phantom of the Opera. They have a great time with their musical talents.

Was looking and feeling like Spring, yesterday Apr. 5th, but today it's snowing! We'll see what the rest of the year brings.
