All This in a Week

Once every 14 years Craig buys a new car and this was the week.  We drove to Sacramento on a Friday and bought it, but didn't take delivery until the next Thursday.  It is pretty cute and I think he will enjoy the warmth of a hardtop and the fun of the convertible and be safe!




Sunday was Easter and we celebrated with and Easter egg hunt and a family brunch after church.  It was a wonderful day.

Iz and I colored 3 dozen eggs and I hid almost 100.  I think she found all of them herself.  Claire just ran around and Emmett takes it very seriously.  

On Tuesday morning, April 2, we had a call from Whitney that she was going in to have her baby three weeks early.  That was at 7:30 am and at 10:30 we were on the road to Santa Barbara.  We had Mom with us and dropped her at home.  It was like a well orchestrated plan.  We arrived just before visiting hours ended and got to meet their beautiful new daughter, Michelle Elysia.  She was 8 lbs.  and looked very healthy, beautiful, (and sleepy).  We stayed for three days and then raced home to...





Tired grandma and baby.  Even 8 lbs. looks tiny!



attend Devery's endowment and
help with a shower.
The decorations were beautiful, the food delicious, and it was a wonderful evening for the bride.

Kathy was great to open her home and Dwan, LaRae, Diane made it all come together perfectly.  It was great to be a part of it.

There were almost 40 people there and Dwight, her fiancĂ© came to meet everyone.  Very cute couple.
