Spring has sprung, The grass has riz;
I wonder where the flowers iz!
I remember my dad quoting this to us when I was a kid.
Does anyone else remember this?

Two Picnics, A Special Fireside, My Sister, Kay, Over For Lunch
And A Mindy & Co. Stop-over
Spring brings picnics.
After winter, everyone is so ready to get outdoors,
smell the fresh air and feel the warm sunshine.
In the dessert, you've got to hurry
before the scorching sunshine shows up!
Our annual Spring Branch Picnic had a huge turnout.
Everyone brought side dishes and desserts,
and there were all the grilled hamburgers and hot dogs that we could eat!

On Sunday night, Roger and I attended a wonderful Fireside.
Robert Cundick, composer, was a principle organist for the Tabernacle Choir for many years
and played organ solos on the weekly broadcast, Music and The Spoken Word.
He is now 88.
He played organ and piano music for us,
and his charming wife shared stories
of their very interesting life together.
Monday night was FHE at the Walters Ranch in Santa Clara
for NAI's Family Spring Picnic.
The kids rode horses and had an Easter egg hunt
and the adults chatted under the trees.
We ate grilled buffalo burgers and hot dogs with the side dishes and desserts we all brought.
Roger volunteered to help grill -
he is a Master at that, you know!
On Wednesday, I invited Kay to stay for lunch when she came to pick up my blog books to show
in her Relief Society, "Using the Media" workshop.
She taught about blogging, and she has a wonderful blog,
"Hinton Happenings."

I fixed a shrimp, corn and avocado salad and a chocolate bread pudding for dessert.
As always, we enjoyed chatting and catching up with each other.
Late that night, Mindy, Jeff and their four kids and Kristin, Mindy's friend and roommate at BYU, and her husband, Craig, and their two arrived and stayed over on their way to California for Spring Break.
Roger and I fixed pancakes, candy bacon and strawberries for breakfast.
Why do babies grow up so fast?
And how can they just keep getting cuter and cuter?

Spring has sprung and everyone is out and about and on the move!
Wow! You did get a huge turnout to that barbecue! Thanks again for your books. The workshop was a success. I appreciate your help. MIndy's baby is so dang cute.
ReplyDeleteI Love Spring! Sounds like you guys are as busy as ever with lots of parties to attend. Sisters lunches are always so fun, especially when you are cooking! Thanks for hosting my friends and my family on our way to CA. That was so nice of you and Dad to fix breakfast for us...and it was deeeelicious! It was fun to see you even if it was so brief.
ReplyDeleteYour branch party looked really fun and Dad is the master griller! Fiona is just too cute. That is awesome that both families were able to stay on their way to Cali for spring break!!
