March Happenings

March is a beautiful month in Mesa!  Here are some highlights!

The Mesa temple was closed for cleaning so I got to attend the Gilbert temple two times in March.  They recently updated the endowment and it's been wonderful to go a few times to hear the new parts!

Matt took the kids to the Red Mountain carnival right by their school while I set up for Bob Slade's funeral then I came to meet them.  Matt's been having terrible hives often when he goes outside so he went home with Abby who was done and I stayed with Charlotte and the boys.  I didn't ride any rides this time, maybe next time.  Miles liked this humongous Hershey's syrup.  The carnival food was pricey but the kids really loved the carnival.  Charlotte paid to go the next night with Melody.

The girls had an orchestra competition- they got "Superior with Distinction" rating- the highest you can get.  It's been fun to have the girls practicing the same songs together.  They had a school performance also then we went to Cafe Rio and waited way too long for our food.

High the hill on Brown  a few times with Angie and Emily- trying to get in good shape for my Italy trip coming up.


Miles fell down walking to get on the bus and scraped up his arm. The bus driver called the nurse and she came on the bus to patch him up then called me.  He likes to wrap it up in gauze.

Met these ladies at Swig and Kylee brought Saland and Go.  I loved serving with these ladies and miss getting to see them more often.  They've all had a baby either while we were serving or Amanda will have one this year!  So happy for them!

Finally made it to one of Brooklyn Blake's softball games now that she's a senior.  She got an awesome hit but they caught it.  They played Mt. View and I think Westwood lost 10-0 but it was fun to watch her and visit with her grandma Michelle who just got called as my counselor and her aunt Andrea.

Our March activity was on gardening.  We also did a service swap where everyone wrote something they'd like done for or with them and then we exchanged them!

Yummy dirt cups and fruit.  Melba Miskin did the most amazing singing and shared her homegrown sugar snap peas.
