MARCH-MADNESS

OK, so it was 75 on Friday, and then we 12 inches of snow!!!   I LOVE this weird weather.  You just never know what's gonna happen.

We went to Branson after Sherri was done with the play, and I must say I really enjoyed it.  We stayed at Stormy Point, and I never get tired of the kids.  I love to hear their thoughts on just about everything!

Dean & I are starting a painting class tomorrow night.  He entered his carving of a bird (he painted it also) in an Art Show at the VA and took 1st place in carving and BEST OF SHOW!!  We were both truely amazed!!  Now he wants to learn to paint better, so the class.  I have taken MANY painting classes over the years, and hope I learn something good from this one.  I'm NOT really interested in painting anymore, but am interested in doing this with my husband, and so......

I've been reading a lot of books lately, and making lots of baby blankets.  So many new babies in our family!!  I love it.  Haven't been making very many cards lately, and I expect that to change when  I get my Mother's Day Present (early) from Sherri & Brian & family.  It's a machine that cuts out and also embosses things for cards.   :-)  so happy.........

Next week our John will be in Kansas City for some kind of Theater Conference, and he will have time off, so we've decided to go there.  We've never been there, and we will be able to spend a day with him, so why not!!

I want to go antique hunting with Sherri ASAP.  I say this while I also have tons of stuff I need to get rid of.  I love the rule of: "one thing comes in, one goes out."  I'm trying to do that.  Not always succeeding.   We both love to find "treasures" and if we get to eat out, it's a winner of a day!!!

Well.  Hope all is well for everyone.  Please, I'm asking for prayers for my youngest son, who continues to have some mental-health problems.  He needs LOTS of prayers.  

Oh, Sherri and kiddos came over today and helped clean-up the house (with cheerful hands & hearts) and it was just so delightful.  Lucky us!!!   Good Night All......
