I forgot to post one of the best things ever.  The first sign of Spring was in the orchard today.  Enjoy the following beautiful picture.

This week we celebrated National Down Syndrome day.  We wore mismatched socks in Leighton's honor.  We had guide training and Leighton found the rescue ropes.  Frozen also came out.  I think Leighton watched it 10 times, and so did all the grandkids.  Here are pictures.

Mismatched socks

I have some favorite people in this world.  They happen to be my grandkids.  Here is a new picture of them.  Joseph fainted right after this picture was taken.

What happened this week.  I think I was really busy.  Jessica can lift Leighton again so I won't be seeing her every day.  Glad she is healing up -she is starting to look really good- but miss seeing her and Leighton and Coleman and Chandler every day  I got spoiled with seeing them.  Here is a picture,

Here is the new picture of Dennis and I.  The only photoshopping we did was take the freckles off my arms.  It is sad I have so many.  Dennis also had us fix his chin.  Sad we are so old.  I didn't have to fix my chin because it was hidden.  It is interesting getting older.  I feel like I am 20 inside, but I am 65.  I can remember my Grandmother telling me that when she was in her 90's and I though that cannot be possible.  I just hope even though I feel younger, I am more mature than I was in my 20s.  I was thinking of the things that made me feel really good this week.  Riding my bike, the few beautiful spring days we have had, my cute grandkids, Jessica getting better each day, my  talks as I walk with my friend Vickie, Jeremy and Trixy getting their new house, Josh and his family getting their new car, getting my body downstairs and cleaning the downstairs, my new red swing in my swing set, eating crab and steak tonight at home with Dennis, getting to not set my alarm tonight, and I could go on and on.  I won't say what made me feel sad this week, because I am just going to forget any stressful stuff.

We celebrated March Birthdays today.  Jessica and Joseph.  It was fun.  I am so thankful for every birthday we celebrate.  Wow it was a Sunday dinner fiasco.  I was cooking Pork chops in mushroom gravy, a honey mustard chicken, the Frontier Women's twice baked potatoes, rice.  I burned the first pan of rice.  It took me about a half-hour to scrub the burn off the pan  It was just a crazy cooking day.
Another thing about today was we went on daylight savings time.  Icky!!  I decided it was the hardest for older people and babies to adjust.  It made it a hard day with Mom.  When I went to get her up and dressed she was pretty sleepy and then when I usually put her to bed at nine, it became 10, because that is the time she is used too.  Here are some pictures of today.

This week has flown by.  I am posting a few pictures.  The Donald Dock on my couch is what Dennis  accused me of trying to assault him with.  It is a crazy long story.  I was in the office talking to one of our clients and he came in the office with his cell phone and was having cell phone yell.  He was talking so loud i couldn't hear the man on the phone.  His back was turned from me so I could not signal for him to reduce his yell so I grabbed the Donald Duck (which was sitting on the desk for some unknown reason) and chucked it at him to get his attention.  I went over his head (I am a bad aim) and hit the wall and scared him.  He told me I could have put his eye out.  I asked him how since his back was turned to me)  Now I am teasing him about being afraid of my lethal weapon.  here it is.  This is my selfie.    I dreamed that I hadn't washed my hair for days and it was covered with oil.  I had had it in a pony tail a lot because I have been really busy.  Because of that dream I got up and did my hair so I took a picture of myself to send to my friend Vickie.  I needed someone to know I had finally done my hair.  Well that about sums up my week.  Pretty boring.

I love Sunday dinner.  When all my kids come and I have my Mother and brother Steven I cook dinner for 25 people.  It is lots of work, but I love having my family together and it unifies us  It is a tradition that many families have in the United States and I love that it is a tradition in my family.  Here are a few pictures of todays family dinner.  Every thing is cleaned up and we are all watching the Oscars.  It was Emma's birthday Sunday Dinner today.  She is 9, swims, plays the violin and piano, and plays soccer.  Here is a picture of Emma.  There is a picture of some of the family playing and watching TV.  These are the best of times.
