Enjoying the ache from our labors

Ya gotta love Saturday's!

Yesterday Mom and I started spreading mulch @ about 8:00 a.m. We took down a tree in the front yard @ about 10:00 a.m. (it fell the wrong way and landed on the front porch roof...no real damage. I made 2 judgement errors and paid a price). Todd & I chopped it up. We went to Danny's Rugby match (they won!) and returned home to finish cleaning up the tree (Danny & Todd both helped). Mom and the boys went to MC Sports to purchase a Trampoline (yes, another one...so the grandkids can bounce when they visit in 6 weeks). While they were gone, I cut the grass. During the grass cutting Mom, Danny, Todd & I assembled the Trampoline.

A the while Ally babysat Lucy Marquart.

Today, I'm feeling the muscle ache of a Saturday well spent.

We had a great Sacrament meeting. Josh Lefgren gave a talk on Humilty...it was a wonderful talk. Looking beyond all the great things he said, I believe it's the first Sacrament talk where I've heard "cajones" referred to.

Quote for the day: “Whatever they grow up to be, they are still our children, and the one most important of all the things we can give to them is unconditional love. Not a love that depends on anything at all except that they are our children.” Rosaleen Dickson

April!

Mom had pneumonia in March!

I cut the grass on April 2nd and then got a stomach virus!

Danny has earned "Man of the Match" in his last 2 Rugby matches...beyond his obvious skill and passion for the sport, his sportsmanship pleases us the most...

Ally's on her "right of passage" journey.

Todd is enjoying the pleasant weather.

We are all sons and daughters of a loving Heavenly Father.
