March 2020 blog written in May

Two strikes against me. I'm doing this in May

and my March 2020 Blog Album in Google photos

won't all upload. The photos will be out of order, but here goes:

1. The Zoom meetings during the quarantine have been 

great. This is Alaina playing during the instrument

recital we had. Thanks for all the talent

2. Catharine will soon be four. I was working at the

table and she wanted to do a 100 piece puzzle.

I gave her a few hints and with very little help

she did it. She stayed with it for over an hour.

Don't believe it when they say small children don't

have long attention spans. It just has to be something they like.

3. Gabe, Tom & Mel's son. I love keeping in

touch through face time.

4. It's great to have Joe's family so close. They are

right upstairs. We get to go celebrate with them.

This is Leah's 6th birthday. She love TJ Masks, and she got

all four of them. They sure had a good time.

5. Picture of a Zoom meeting.

6. Joe and Tesha have worked hard to get repairs done

on the Castle. They fixed the wall and built a safer

staircase. They also brought in some sand.

This is looking forward to the family reunion.

7. Grandma Jensen's lemon cake with the best sauce on

top. We've been working a little bit on it with mostly A. Robinette

to put together her cookbook again. The cost is will be $3.75. We

added some pictures and short article in with the recipes.

8. We ate a bag of raspberries before we went out to prune

them. It was good to be reminded of how yummy they are.

11.  First cookout of the season. It was a beautiful day.

12. When going through pictures and things, it is

amazing what we find that we've forgotten about.

Here is the cutest Valentine card from Emily & Rob

with Marri and Soffie. Such cute little girls.

13. When landfill was brought from the 8-plex down

the road, we had them drop extra. The kids have

had a ball in this GREAT BIG sandpile.

14. At the beginning of the month, Zander had his Grandparents day.

It was so fun to go and watch his program, eat with him, and see room.

We were babysitting Luke, so he came with us.

15. Luke, Grandpa, Zander, Grandma

16. Zander at his desk.

17. Grandpa, Sophie, and Grandma. We went to see her

in Joseph and the Amazing Technicolor Dream Coat. It

was such an amazing production. We came a few days later

and brought Bekah, Mallory, Katrina and Isaac to see it also.

18. Mallory, Sophie, Bekah, & Katrina.


19. Grandparents day with Ben. He loved showing
us around the school.


20. Rob came up to speak to the SUP in Brigham City
and brought Cecily with him. It was great to hear
his lecture.


21. I love reading Dick and Jane with beginning
readers. This is me and Leah having a great time
reading and laughing with the stories.


22. I was pruning and Catharine came out to help. She
worked with me for over an hour. We'd trade off cutting
and gathering the canes.

I haven't posted for a long time. I am actually over at
Ellen's watching the boys while she and Daniel are at the
hospital. Little baby William John joined our family this
morning (May 19, 2020) at 7:45 this morning. I'm filled
with great gratitude to Heavenly Father for all the blessings
He has given us. I have had such a happy life, and I hope
to still have many more years. I love you all.
