March 2023


We returned from our mission on the 16th. 



But that wasn't the only thing that happened this month!

Birthdays
 We will begin with the birthdays.
Ryan and Michael shared the 28th as their special day.



49 years for Ryan.


Only 22 years for Michael.




The Company Came
Our return warranted visits from Ryan, Emily, the DARs, and the married grandchildren.
Thanks to Kimba, we had a place to congregate.


Shopping and golfing for some of the people!




The best picture we could get of the oldest and youngest grandchild. One seemed happier than the other.






The World of Sports

Finn decided that volleyball was NOT his 'cup of tea'.

Ruby's dance competition in Pocatello brought them 1st place in both dances!


Oliver continued to excel in gymnastics. 

Esplan, Sean, and Tyler still found this sport a lot of fun.



Noteworthy Performances
Lewis and Clark 
starring Oliver as Soldier #2!


Aladdin
starring Brielle as a citizen of Agraba (an Agrabahn)!




Some family members were able 
to 'get out of Dodge' this month!

Nathan and Kristy enjoyed a celebrity ski trip to Vail.


The GCGs spent a few days in San Diego.



Shelley got revived at Time Out For Women.




It was Oklahoma for the RJMs.


Kristy 'worked' a couple of days at Blade Show Texas.




And while some were enjoying spring, the Utahns  were still in the grips of winter.


As well as were the Rexburg folk!



School Notes

Dexter graduated from speech and a great time at  block fest.

Brielle participated in BizTown.

Dave had a marketing gala at his school.
And just look at who also attended!


Sean went to MORP.


This & That

And try as they might, neither Mac, Lincoln, Oliver, Ruby, Dexter, or even little Patrick could catch the elusive Leprechaun again 
this year.


The cousins enjoyed their Sunday Naps.


It was lunch at Lucky 13 before Ryan returned to Texas.



Lincoln looks cold but I'm sure he was warm inside - first baptisms at the temple.

And there you have March's 31 days of mactivity. Looks like we all survived it fairly well.
So...
Until April...

April

  Seven birthdays this month - count them! Nathan celebrated year 49 on the 1st. Elder Sean turned 20 on the 7th. Happy 25th birthday to Emm...
