Monday, March 23

Our week was so stinking busy. I had to sew this week for the kids' school play, the Wizard of Oz. Monday and Tuesday, I made the second "Dorothy" dress. Wednesday and Thursday, I made a dress and fancy jacket for the munchkin mayor and Friday into Saturday I made Glinda the good witch. I finished about 3 pm Saturday and still feel relieved that I am done....Phew! Pictures forth-coming. Oh, and none of our kids is actually in the play, although Nonee is on stage crew.

Bella (our kitty) is very pregnant. I expect her kittens any day now. Maybe after this litter, we'll actually get her fixed. The babies are just so cute I couldn't resist one more time.

A, our daughter, is also looking very pregnant, but has 3 more months to go. She's cranky almost all the time.

Our oldest had spring break last week and spent it reading, blacksmithing and oh yeah - getting a job. :-) He just got a full-time job working at "This Is The Place" state park. He will spend 1/2 of his time blacksmithing and the other 1/2 just general interpreting. He'll be getting $8/hr and is just happy as a clam.

We went to the Draper temple dedication tonight - we, meaning Dad and I, Aaron, Hal and Joshie - over at our stake center. It was piped in, like when we went to the Nauvoo temple dedication. It was very nice. I need to get back on track to go once a week. I just could not keep up during the session, although I did manage to go twice in 6 weeks.

The weather was absolutely beautiful last week - upper 60's to mid-70's. I have daffodils up and blooming all over. Tonight and this morning, it's snowing. Go figure.

Looking forward to getting back in the saddle as far as this blog and "normal" life. On my political blog, I made 100 posts in 45 days....that's where I spent my time.
