ELDER HARRIS'S BIRTHDAY!

Super missionary of the universe if having a birthday today, April 29th!!! AND tomorrow is his one year anniversary in the Idaho Pocatello Mission! We miss him terribly but are so proud of the work he is doing. We know he's in the best place in the world for him right now. We love him tons and pray for him daily. I'm sorry these pictures are repeats but I don't have any new stuff. (Yes, actually s's IS correct.)

You Dirty Dog!

This is our dirty Sonic. Enlarge the pictures to appreciate how much dust and dirt he picked up in the backyard. A couple dozen paper towels later he was good as new.

Piggy Down

This is the effect I have on Big Piggy. He comes to the fence to say Hello or to see if I have any apples. If I scratch him on his forehead he immediately falls over and goes to sleep. Not quite sure what to make of it. Hope y'all like pigs. They're mostly what I blog about it seems.

Easter with Emily's family

Because we live "relatively" close to Emily we can "pop" up there ( 6.5 hours of driving) more often than we used to which is so nice. Wish we could do that with all our spread out family members. Anyway, we spent a couple days with them over the Easter weekend and had lots of fun. Pictured are the girls making sugar cookies. (I ate 4 and was pretty sure I'd reached some form of nirvana.) If you look closely at the bottom picture you can see one of our Bunny Salads.

Woops!

There are millions of trees in Tennessee but unfortunately a few falling over in wind storms is not rare. This one landed on the fence that borders our property and the farm behind us. Fortunately, it didn't land inside the area where the dogs hang out. They were in the house and I must have been running errands when it fell because I didn't hear anything. It makes one a little nervous, though, when the wind starts blowing around here. We have several trees that could land on our house.
