Already May?? 25th???

Well it really has been 5 months since I updated this thing. So let's recap...
January 2009
HAL and Reese performed their school play at Alamo Heights, "Into The Woods". Some performances were really good, a couple were a little off and a couple were downright dazzling!!! I know, I went to them all.



Hal sang, "Giants In The Sky" and Reese sang, "Hello Little Girl" They were awesome!!!

February 2009
Grandma turned 80!!! Nancy planned a party for her and lots attended. Nancy had each family make scrapbook pages and presented the book of them to Grandma.


The very next day, it was March and Rod and I got on a plane to Seattle for Owen's blessing...

March 2009
Here are our Airport Greeters...











And Owen Levi!!!











We read books...









And went to Stake Conference with Owen...
And had garlic fries (thanks, Deb, she knows I love these) and lots of Teriyaki chicken, just the best! We had fun and got to visit Deb's family and meet the folks in their Ward.

Such a cute family!!!

April 2009

We also went to Katy and Dan's in Wichita, KS for Easter and Magavin's Baptism. Rod rented a 15 passenger van for us and we drove through wildfires in OK that made a 9 hour trip stretch to about 15. What an adventure. We also got to see Dan's family and meet their Ward family. Katy took us to the Science Museum there everyone had lots of fun. It was also their Stake Conference on TV with Pres. Monson. On the way home we stopped in OK City to see the Memorial (just a couple days shy of the 19th). Just outside of the OK border, we found the famous "Fried Pies" exit at an awesome park in Arbuckle, OK. We stuffed ourselves and continued home. (visit http://www.arbuckles.com/ for more info on this awesome area)

We also stopped by the OK City Memorial

April 19th, I was supposed to turn 52, but I was very sick and missed it so, guess what? Not a year older! That's how that works. My family did make me a very nice party with my favorites (strawberry shortcake) and Rod got me a Cricut Expression and as soon as I figure out how to use it, I will be making some fun stuff...

For Mom's Day, Rod got me a ticket to Colorado and Kim and I went to visit.

We had a super fun time and saw a frozen lake toured a candy factory and were basically just spoiled rotten by some folks who treat us great!!! Love it there and wish I could be there more!

The last day of May, bright and early (and eight days early) comes Mr. Mason Graham Roberts at 7lbs, 15oz. Here he is!!!
