April 2021

April 2 - Randy and Courtney are finally getting their cement in the driveway and sidewalk!

April 3 - Annie is practicing with a bow that Blake bought, she stayed at it for a really long time.  I watch the Utah Jazz by streaming the games from my computer to the TV, Clark thought he had his own personal private showing on the lap top.

April 5 - Well, now it is my turn for surgery.  I had my right hip replaced.  It has been getting bad for quite awhile, and I decided I didn't want it to get as bad as the left one had. Blake had the week off to tend me. He was able to do my anesthesia, which was a huge comfort to me. The surgery went well, I had a lot of post op pain, but it only lasted a few hours.  It has all healed up nicely.

April 6 - This was the scene as Blake left to come visit me at the hospital.  I was glad I didn't have to go out in it!

April 8 - Cindy had these beautiful flowers sent to me on the day I got home from the hospital!

April 13 - We have some daffodils and crocus blooming!

April 15 - More snow!

April 16 - Randy rented a tractor to move some dirt around in his yard, then he and Blake went to Home Depot to get some supplies and look who they found there, Molly and Hallie!

April 17- Putting in Randy's sprinkler system.  Blake, Brian, Jared and Randy worked hard all day, but got it done!

April 19 - Look close, you'll see snowflakes!

April 24 - Brian moved into a new rental house in Ammon. The kids were really good, and they enjoyed a snack when the table got set up.  Maden was busy getting the TV and games hooked up.  Blake had to run to Home Depot, so Hallie got to go along. A pretty stray cat came to visit, Annie and Molly went out to pet it.  Molly had a dance recital, and Annie got to go see it!

April 27 - Mowing the lawn for the first time.  It was a little chilly, but Blake got it mowed and all the pine needles and pine cones picked up.

April 28 - Blake and Brian rented this cool post hole digger to help Kylee fix her fence. It worked really well.

April 29 - Randy had some gravel delivered for the driveway to the side of his house. So in typical redneck fashion, they figured out to use the snowplow on the four wheeler to spread the gravel out.  It actually worked really well.

April 30 - Molly and Hallie got to spend some time with some cousins.  Hallie and Kenzley weren't really sure that if they wanted to be friends, but I think with time, they will become great friends.  Molly, Michael and James had a great time playing at the school playground.  Molly Beth is hugging Grandma Beth.

Molly was so proud that she could give Hallie an underdog! I was pretty impressed too! The caption Nikelle gave the bottom picture was "Are they praying or pouting?" I'll give you a clue, it was time to go home, so ...... pouting.
