Random April

Ha!  Mama had these two cards sitting on her dining table side by side.  Somehow we all thought it was both a ridiculously funny pairing and yet poignantly appropriate for the last few months of our lives.  :D

Another wonderful family history interview with my dear Mama and Daddy. So, so thankful we are doing these!!!

Daddy was pretty proud of himself here.  :)  ha!  He was telling me that he had told Mama she was beautiful. Then she said, "Yeah, he told me as I got out of bed this morning."  Then he said she fussed at him.  Or something.  Who knows.  These two.  :D  Blessed.

Daddy wanted me to take their photo at church that morning because he said Mama looked so pretty.  He was definitely correct.  :)

Had to get this photo with Coe, too!  :)  

This was a lovely evening... peaceful and springlike.

Including this as a memento of the basic meal that Marvin ate for about 3 weeks straight!  Once he was able to eat solid food, he pretty much just wanted chicken, mashed potatoes, and green beans.  (the squash was for me!)   :)  

Celebrating dear Kris's 50th at Bible study at Cornerstone.  :) 

Daddy with other members of the Academy of Missouri Squires at the Governor's Mansion in late April.

What a happy sight this was!  Marvin on the mower!!

Incredible full moon that night...

A friend shared this on facebook following the shocking death of a wonderful woman in our community - who left behind a loving husband and 5 beloved children.  I thought I would save it here.
