1. It's been a great spring. The house continues
toward completion and the yard and garden
have never looked so great.
Tesha made this and it was a work of art.
Filled with veggies we had quite the feast.
2. Spring. Everyone has been outside enjoying
the great weather and working in the yard. The large
garden had been added to for a strawberry patch
and watermelon patch.
3. Joe's family has been on some great,
local hikes. They have a hobby of rock
collecting and found some great ones!
4. Daniel and Ellen bought a home and we
helped them clean and paint it so it was ready
to move in. Thanks to family for the moving day!
5. John and Caleb. This was during the
COVID 19 pandemic and quarantine.
6. Moving Grandma Capener's piano.
7. It was Caleb's birthday, so we celebrated with
pizza, drinks, and Twinkies for a "birthday cake."
8. The mama cat had kittens. The kids liked
to carry them around in their shirts.
9. This pandemic has given us all more family time.
In a way, it really has been nice. Here is Joe "working"
hard with family around. Sometimes he would come
downstairs when he needed quiet time.
10. We were refinishing the table that I grew up with to
have it in our new home. Under the table I had
written my on it. Now we know where it comes from.
11. Chris brought over his Fooseball table to put in our
unfinished basement. The kids have already had a great
time with it. One the other end of the basement is all
the food storage buckets and cans. We can't figure out where
we put it all. There are about 150 buckets.
12. Less Wheatley (Val's dad) did our cabinets. They are
so beautiful. Jeffrey and Dusty helped install them.
13. Tesha has her tomato plants covered from the cold.
14. The outside of our house. We debated on whether to
have the rock, but we're very happy with it.
15. Back of the house. It sure looks big from the back.
I'm glad the basement is so high and has tons of light.
16. Dad's teserac light fixture in the front hall.
17. My big brother Paul also signed his name.
18. Catharine's birthday. She's four years old.
The last two months have gone by fast even though
we've been quarantined to the house. I'm glad we had
some little kids to be with and then Zander and Amelia came
to play also. Think back on the things we've learned from
this pandemic. It wasn't too bad, because we could still go
to the store. Stock up what you needed, because I don't think
it will be the last time we will be in need. Feel free to come and
get some of our buckets of wheat or flour. I would also add
milk to that, but I'm saving it for pigs if we ever get any.
Remember who is in charge. There are things that will come
to pass in these latter days that will be hard, but we know the
ending. One talk I listened to said, "Put your seat belts and hold
on to your principles."
I promise you there truly is peace in the Savior.
