We took a family picture while Amy was here.

Amy is home!

This morning Mom, Clara and I drove down to Teen Mania to pick up Amy.  She'll be staying for 5 days.  She'll be here for the ECC graduation, and for the Memorial Day cookout we're having on Monday.  

We're really glad she's home.  The last time we saw her was in March!

We drove to Arizona after being in New Mexico to see our grandparents on my dad's side.  

Clara picked a huge grapefruit.  We called it the grandaddy of all grapefruit.

Some friends of our grandparents took us on a golfcart to get ice cream.  It was cold, and at night.

Dad laid bricks for a sidewalk between grandma and grandpa's house and their neighbor's.

The result of Dad's hard work!

New Mexico Trip

On April 2 we drove to New Mexico for a support trip.


We stopped at a big cross off of Interstate 4o and looked at the statue garden around it.



We got to meet our cousin's son Asher for the first time!





We all enjoyed holding him.

On Friday morning we spent time with Mema and Uncle Mark and made cookies. Date and Nut and then Dark Chocolate and Nut.

Melissa danced with the cookie sheets, waving them around to cool them off.

Mom really enjoyed sewing and quilting with Mema.
