I have enjoyed my twice a month visits to the temple. It’s been such a good thing for me to come to the temple more often. | Madeline loved going to the Olympic Training Center for Activity Days and watching the girl wrestlers. They put on a fun match for the girls and even gave the girls some one-on-one attention. | I love General Conference for the talks that I get to study for the many months after. I do struggle to stay focused for all of the sessions so taking notes does help me. | Everyone had fun looking at the solar eclipse. Mike’s staff took the funniest photo of him and then made that photo into a sticker and gave it to him. It He put it on his water bottle, and I just chuckle every time I see it. | Emma’s t-shirt quilt finally got quilted. I love the way it turned out. | Someone took a photo of me and Emma after church one Sunday. Our outfits were fitting for the spring weather. | I volunteered to take group photos of Emma and some of the other girls in our ward who were also graduating and heading to BYU. Since they would all be doing a grad party together we thought it would be fun to have a group photo of the girls. | Madeline made a charm bracelet at Activity Days with all of her friends. They turned out so well. | Madeline loves going on walks after dinner and now that the weather has been warmer, she loves eating ice-cream on those walks. | Mike is so good at what he does. In and out of the operating room he shines! | Madeline went to a gymnastics gym for a birthday party and had so much fun swinging from the ropes. | Abby played in the Acoustic Café at the high school and performed Vienna by Billy Joel. She is so incredibly talented. | The tulips at the temple were in full bloom this month. I wish I could get tulips to grow like that at my house. | Madeline has really improved in the cello this year. She finally moved to the next size cello. | Our view of Pikes Peak from our house is always amazing. On this particular afternoon the moon was right above the tip of Pike’s Peak. | There was a big snow storm coming in as we left one of Emma’s track meets in Parker. By the time we got home Mike’s car looked like it had been through a blizzard. | Andrew sent me a box of Japanese treats for my birthday. It was a nice addition to the fun things Mike got for me at Evereve. | Abby has been getting in her hours for driving and has taken advantage of some of the snowier days to get in experience driving in the snow. | Madeline is still taking private swim lessons, and she loves her instructor Ms. Natalia. She has rapidly improved so far this year.
