Making Something for Mom

 

We had a nice surprise on Wednesday when we saw the Juniata Sentinel...Gavin, Malin, and Doyle were on the front page! Last Thursday evening we went to the library for story hour. There is always a craft after the story. I thought that we could take Gavin, so we all went...but, Doyle was late for work that morning (as usual), so he was late getting home. So, the first the kids saw him was at the library that evening. Of course, they wanted him to help with the craft...and since it was "for Mom"...I let them have all the fun! Brian and Carol Smith were there with their daughter and snapped the photo without anyone even knowing! So...it was really a surprise! Gavin loves it and so does Malin!

Speaking of Mother's Day...Happy Mother's Day! I was served breakfast in bed. And, Doyle cooked burgers and hot dogs on the grill for the Leister gang after Church. In the evening we gathered here again, with the Aughey's, too, for Subway and desserts!
In honor of Mother's Day, last Friday I got my first pedicure of the season...Puerto Vallarta Violeta in case you wanted to know!

This week has been busy. Lots of "stuff" going on. Meeting, getting ready for the Relay for Life Spaghetti dinner, shopping. Despite the rain, Malin's class took a field trip to Lake Tobias on Monday. She had a super time and kept saying "Gavin should see this." She loved feeding the goats and seeing all the animals. She would have stayed all day! She would like to go this summer and take her Daddy and Gavin. Today we finally got to mow...our yard was the only one on our road that had not been mowed the other day when the rain stopped!

Malin has been getting ready for her plays at school...she will be mother bear.
