April Fools, Conference & Eclipse

April Fools Dinner!  I got this idea from Ralphie at Simple on Purpose.  Every orders different courses without knowing what you're getting. 

April Relief Society Birthday dessert night bouquet are especially good in the spring.  I love hyacinth so much!

Mom dates to Andy's are always a favorite.  This boy loves to help me grocery shop also.


General Conference Snapshots! So good to hear from Elder Holland again.  5 sessions was a lot for the kids- and me with the kids by the end but there were so many good talks I'm excited to study.  Lots on temples & covenants and prayer




Got up at 6am still not done till 10am.  I should have done the quick rise or done them the night before but I was out of steam.

Charlotte was very proud of her fruity pebbles treats.  So much sugar this weekend.

Miles has always been a good little artist.  Especially with Lizzy.

I had to capture this sweet moment of my two teen daugthers.  Little sister who paints her nails at least once a week helping big sister.


Cool shadows at the peak of the eclips for AZ.  I was pretty jealous of everyone who got to see totality.  Maybe for 2044...  The younger 3 kids got to see it a little bit at school with glasses.  Miles was really into explaining it to all of us after his science teacher explained it to him.

Olly got a new phone, we're gradually letting them have a phone more often with time limits and controls on it- not their favorite but better than sharing the house phone like they have been doing for years.

Miles got a bad cough & fever this week.  He went to school Monday & Tuesday for state testing then stayed home Wed-Friday so I had to rearrange some things.  It was nice to have more time with him.  He read lots of library books (Last Kid on Earth series) and watched Hercules and helped me with some cookie walk fliers.

We've had 2 ducks hanging out in our yard almost every day

 

4th grade vs. 8th grade Oliver and Abigail these kill me!
