Phil & Cyrena

We have had a busy couple of weeks with spring break, a wedding, and many other things.  It’s nice to see the sun shine and start to have a few days that hint that spring and summer are on their way!  Praise God for that. 

The last day before spring break the kids brought home their report cards.  The both got A’s and B’s and Mike took them to the IGA to pick out their own 1/2 gallon of ice cream.  Creighton got to benefit from their hard work.  Kate has had some trouble with math and she worked really hard to get her grade up.  We’re so proud of her and she was so happy when she saw that she had gotten a B that she actually got tears in her eyes.

We didn’t go anywhere over spring break, but we tried to throw in a few special things.  One morning we went to visit Mike at his “Bloomington work” and then had lunch at McDonald’s.

Dad and Mom R, plus Greg and Mary’s 4 kiddos, made a trip to the nursing home.  Considering we had 8 kids under 8 with us, I thought it went really well.  =)  We did get some looks though.

This past weekend Mike’s brother, Phil, got married.  Again, considering the number of kids this involves, it went really well.  There was some chaos and some sickness of varying degrees, but all in all, it was a great weekend and we’re so happy for Phil and Cyrena.

I’m really blessed to have great sister-in-laws, even this nutty one.  ; )
