4 huge blossoms opened up, one still opening.  What an amazing flower

I woke Hailey up at 6:30.  I made her pancakes and was surprised when she told me she eats them plain with nothing on them just like Bill.  I played Elevation worship on the TV while she was eating.  We packed a snack for her to have at school.  She only has a half day today.  Bill went out the door and came back in to tell us the deck was icy.  We left a little early just incase the roads were slippery.  They weren't.  I dropped her off and then came home until I had to leave to take Melissa to therapy.  I went to Meijer's and picked up the rest of the things for my hope totes for the Rescue Mission.  Picked up some Easter candy too.  Came home and put stuff away, and then left to get Melissa.  Dropped her off and then hurried home so Bill and I could leave for the wedding in Frankenmuth.  It was at the Prost.  They got married outside by the Gazebo.  Afterward we went in and had appetizers.  They were yummy.  Bill didn't see anything on the menu he would eat, so we decided to go have dinner at Zehnde'rs with Debbie and Jeff Davis.  We had the perch all you can eat buffet.  It was so good.  We had a nice visit and then left for home.  Came home and watched the news.

Typical day.  At four, I went to Hailey's track meet at Freeland.  I finally found her and let her know where I was sitting.  It sure was cold and windy there.  Enjoyed watching her run and after she was finished, we left right away because we had to stop for food at Taco Bell and then get home to meet Kimmy, Jared and the boys.  Jared drove us all in the van....I sure was glad I had my seat belt on.  

Actually, though, he did a great job.  We got to the concert and found our seats.  We walked upstairs, but found out from someone up there that we were on the main floor.  We had great seats.  We went and got popcorn and drinks while we were waiting for the concert to start.  It was a sold out concert.  The music was great and their voices were amazing.  They were so talented on the instruments too.  We had so much fun.  I loved the boys and Hailey's excitement.  So happy they love Christian music.  Hailey spent the night at my house.  Kimmy let me know when they were home safe.  I love my family!

Wednesday, 4/3/19...Walked at SportsZone, Went to McDonald's Nursery, Went to Melissa's, took her to therapy, Went to get an oil change, Went shopping, Picked Melissa up, Went to Applebees,

Three blossoms open now

Bill and I walked 2 miles at the SportsZone.  Came home and had oatmeal and read our Bibles.

I went to McDonald's nursery and then to Melissa's.  We visited for a while and then I took Melissa to therapy.  She sure is walking better with her quad cane.  I'm not near as nervous about her using it now.  I went to Toyota and got an oil change.  Only took 15 minutes in their quick lube department.  Nice with a Prius. Only need an oil change every 10,000 miles.  I came home for a while.  Left early and went to Kohl's and Penney's before picking Melissa up from therapy.  We went to Applebee's for lunch.  We got all you can eat Soup and Salad.  We both got Oriental Chicken Salads with our soup.  We both tried tomato soup, I had onion soup and she had Loaded Potato soup.  We sure were stuffed when we got done eating.  We were so hungry when we got there.  Came home and took a nap.  Bill and I went to different Sports Stores and looked at basketball backboards.  He got a Philly Steak Sandwich from Charlies.  I was too full still, so only had a cup of water.  Came home and watched a Hallmark Movie.  

Tuesday, 4/2/19..Went to our breakfast, Visited Melissa, Did lesson for small group, Went to small group

Four blossoms, two need to open yet

We went to our breakfast.  I visited Melissa afterward.  Had a really nice visit.  Talked with Kimmy and made plans for the For King and Country Concert on Thursday.  Can't wait!  Talked with Vikki.  Did small group lesson.  It was  a long one.  Had a great small group.  Everyone came.  Great lesson and good discussion.  

Monday, 4/1/19...Walked at the SportsZone, Power went out there, Kenzie and Travis came over, Bill took them to look for a car, Went to see Movie, "Unplanned" with Wes and Gayla

Pendant Kenzie made for me for my birthday...Love it

Another blossom opened up before we went to bed

Blossom is open all the way now. Three more are opening

Bill and I walked at the SportsZone.  When there were 3 laps left to go, the power went off.  We walked around the track while the lights were off and when we got back where you start, the worker said we had to go downstairs until the lights came back on.  I went to Pat's to get stuff for goulash and Bill stayed and talked to Charlie.  He was still playing cards, but couldn't see once the lights went out.  Most people were just leaving.  There was a breakfast going on because they were celebrating SportsZone's anniversary.  Bill and Charlie stayed for that.  They were able to keep making breakfast.  They were also giving out hand sanitizer, granola bars, fruit bars, oranges and apples.  I took some home with me.  I put groceries away and than ate breakfast.  First I made up some organic instant oatmeal, but then realized the microwave wouldn't work without power. (We didn't have power either)  I at Honey Nut Cheerios instead.  Bill got home and we were reading our Bibles when the power came back on.  When I was finished, I made the goulash.  Kenzie and Travis got here a little before 11. She gave me a beautiful wire wrapped pendant, a beautiful scarf, and a tube of gel face mask for me.  She also brought me some whole dried strawberries to try.  YUM!  So sweet of her!  Thanks Kenzie.  We ate goulash, Kenzie's favorite,  and asparagus for lunch. We had a really nice visit with them.   We really like Travis.  He's very kind hearted, smart, and talented.  After that, Travis, Kenzie and Bill went to look for cars.  They wanted him to help them find a good one.  I prayed for a good one.  They found a Hyundai Accent.  Super clean and nice.  Low mileage and a pretty color.  After they came back and showed it to me, they left for Vikki's.  We met Wes and Gayla at the movie theater.  Unplanned was hard to watch, but very informative and a great ending.  I can't see how anyone could be for abortion (killing babies).  There are some very hard hearted people out there. Our nation should put a stop to this murder.   It's as horrible as Hitler and his followers with the Jews.  God help our nation please.  Wes and Gayla came over.  I warmed up goulash for Bill and Wes, then we played 3-13.  Bill won the first game and Gayla won the second game.

Went to church.  So good to have Melissa, Bruce and the kids there.  Worship was amazing.  I taught Sunday School so will have to listen to the message on line.  Twelve kids in my class today.

Kris was my helper and did great.  I ate my left overs from the Olive Garden and made scrambled eggs and fried potatoes for Bill.  I worked on the Faith Rider's Newsletter and got it done.  Also updated the CMA Website.  Just have to add new pictures and it will be done.  Watched a Hallmark Movie.

Slept in until 7:45 this morning.  Did some vacuuming.  Vicki Beemer came over at 12:30 and I showed her how to do the newsletter for Faith Riders.  She will do great, and I am so thankful she wants to do it.  Melissa called and she, Bruce and the kids came over to pick up Abby and Jeffery Peanut the Guinea Pig.  The kids were sure all excited to see Abby.  I got my hugs and they sure were great ones.  Melissa showed me all of their great pictures.   I loved hearing about their trip.  They sure did a lot in a short time.  The lady that helped set everything up did an amazing job.  A person Bruce works for recommended her.  Melissa said she made it a stress free trip.  I sure was happy to see them and so happy they are home.  Bill took Bruce and the boys out to look at the tools. After they left, Bill and I went to eat at Olive Garden for our date night.  We walked through Sam's Club after that and then came home and watched a Hallmark Movie.
