Spring Sprung

It doesn't seem to be my gift to record things as they happen. It also doesn't seem to be my gift to remember much about events after they've happened! That's my story and I'm sticking with it.

But, to keep on keepin' on with a record, here is a partial recollection of things to remember from the past few weeks.

A rainy day (raining cats and dogs) was spent at the George Bush Presidential Library. I highly recommend this if you are ever in the Dallas area. It is worth going more than once, so I believe we will go back again. No pics. Just enjoyed a super day and lunch at Laura Bush's Cafe 43. Very nice.

After the visit to George Bush Library, I traveled to Oklahoma to help my sister get moving ... literally. Bless her heart. They bought a beautiful new house, but have been moving in a little bit at a time. It was obvious in talking with her on the phone that she was feeling somewhat overwhelmed by it all. Somewhat? No! Extreme overwhelming stress and so much that she had ended up in the hospital with chest pains. Thankfully, everything checked out for her physically, but after hearing that news, I felt compelled to go to her. And we worked hard all weekend. My brother and sister-in-love came to our aid with a truck and a lot was accomplished. What would we do without family?

Then the following weekend we went to Austin to watch Brady and Noah play sports - both play soccer and Brady is playing baseball. Somehow my "position" at the soccer field didn't allow for very good action shots, but I did get a few pics of Brady playing baseball. It was a beautiful sunny day, although the wind was "blow you over" wind.

Having an apple instead of donuts because he is going to be playing. 

Big sacrifice!

Noah learned to ride his bike!

There were a few bluebonnets to be found!

And then yet another perfect day with friends at the Dallas Arboretum!

This little boy may be wondering why we got in his picture!

Nowhere but!

Life is moving by too quickly. Still enjoying Bible Study Fellowship and our Ladies of Grace. 

Saturday found us awaiting the arrival of Kate and Jack to decorate eggs for the big hunt!

Wow! Nonnie can do black and white with her phone.

Kate loves playing teacher.
I can tell she's planning what to teach us next.

I love these random moments.
