Trying to catch up!

Well, I'm looking over my photos and trying to remember what I've posted and what I've left out. Looks like I should try and get a little caught up today. Let's go back just a little bit.

I had a super-great surprise party, and I also was blessed with out of town guests, as I told you before. I was also so excited that two of the ladies were able to join me at church on Sunday morning! Marie and her husband had to go back to North Carolina, but Martha and Kevin, and Rachel and Wayne stayed around for part of the day.

And this was a very special Sunday...it was the launching of our brand new Ladies Ministry at church, that we kicked off with a luncheon. Rachel stayed to enjoy that with me, and my Mother was also my guest. We had a wonderful time fellowshipping together, getting to know our table hostesses, and enjoying some very yummy food!

We have been enjoying getting into the groove of "small group" that we started back in January. It's working out very well for our family, and I think it's proving to be extremely productive in helping us build relationships that we so desperately need. This is a photo of our small group leaders, Jeff and Metry, what a great couple!
School is winding down for Justin, there are only about 52 more days until graduation, which scares the pee out of me! I have so much to do, and so does he! :) I'm up to my ears in graduation plans, since I'm the ceremony coordinator for our homeschool support group. But it's all coming together nicely, we have the church, the speaker, and 14 graduates, so those main things are all covered!

Joe's mowing season is in full swing. Clayton and I push mowed our yard, for the first time this season, last Thursday. Well, I outlined it by the road, and then Clayton finished all the rest of it. It was pretty tall, and you know what they say...the painter's house always needs painting? Well, the lawn care guys' yard always needs mowing! :)

Now this weather...well that's another story entirely! I'm sitting at the library watching little snow flurries all around, and the mountains are covered! This is just slightly ridiculous, you know? It's APRIL, and it's SPRING, and it's 40 degrees, for goodness sake! Let's get on with the warm weather already!

Well, I think that's about it, at least the highlights, anyway. I'm going to do a couple more specific posts, but that should get me all caught up for now. Hope you all enjoy a wonderful Easter Sunday this week. HE IS RISEN INDEED!!!
