April

We will begin this month's blog with the Birthday Bird visits. He had quite a few miles to cover, don't cha know!!

 

First stop - Morgan. To see our Nathan.

44 on April 1st.

Next he flew to Layton to visit Sean.

15 on the 7th

Further south, he paid a visit to our favorite missionary - Emma.

20 on the 13th

Back up to Layton. This time for Tyler.

13 on the 14th

Flap, flap, flap way up to Rexburg to celebrate Dexter's birthday.

3 on the 15th

Then he just hung around up there until he could visit Hayley.

20 on the 23rd

And then with all the strength he could muster, he caught a wind current and swept down to Texas to Mac's house.

7 on the 29th

General Conference/Easter Weekend

It's always special when these two events occur together. So many good messages for the next six months. I will share just a few of my favorite quotes:

Kimberly invited us down for Easter Dinner. 

The sweatshop kept us busy...

Oh, happy day! 

Sean got his driver's permit.

We spent a couple of days in Rexburg when Dave was in Texas.

(Rexburg winds and kites always go together.)

And while we were up there we met these four cute little super heroes.

Sports was still a big deal this month.

Oliver and Ruby and soccer.

Tyler and lacrosse

And Esplan continued in basketball.

After a lot of rescheduling we were finally able to get together with Dad's/Grandpa's siblings for lunch at Maddox. 

(LuAnne and Mark were also there but left before we remembered the picture.)

And. Oh. No. Yes.

We were still doing puzzles. 😁

Vacations seem to be up and running.

Yay for the NJMs and their adventure to Disneyworld.

Masks and all!

And yay for Kimba, Emily, and friends and the weekend get-away to Las Vegas.

Thanks to Covid and their dad's reluctance...these four had a few days with Grandma and Grandpa.

And there you have it. 

We have made it through 1/4 of 2021!
