Jessi's School Program
Always a delight to see one or both of the girls in a school program. They always do a great job with the songs. This was Jessi at the Middle School. God has blessed them both with beautiful voices.
Birthday with Family and "Princess Diana"
The day began early with us all going to Union Station. We met Erin there. It took a couple hours to tour the "Celebraton of Diana" exhibit at the Station. The tour was not crowded when we got there...you could not see the end of the line when we left.
The exhibit was beautifully done. We saw many of the clothes she wore plus the famous wedding dress. Linda gave each "family" a book about the exhibit...she is a generous sister, aunt and daughter! Thank you Linda.
After the exhibit we were a little hungry. The Station has a delightful restaurant in the middle of it ..think it's Harvey's. The food was very good and the conversations were fun. It was a very delightful day with the girls!
That evening we all got together for dinner. Vaughn outdid himself with the grilling. We had all sorts of meat and vegetables. This was all followed by cake and ice cream. Erin brought a most delicious chocolate cake! We sat around and talked until all that was left of the cake was a couple of pieces. Thank you Erin for the delish cake.
Thank you family for making my birthday a very special one.

Easter Sunday otherwise known as Resurrection Sunday!
Aunt Linda, Chase and Angie Mother, Me, Jerry and of course, KC!
Former building across the airport! Mother and I after Church.
Had a wonderful time in St. Louis praising the Lord for a safe and beautiful Easter Sunday. On Good Friday a tornado swept thru the St. Louis area destroying many homes and doing a lot of damage to the airport. Thankfully no one lost their lives thru it all. Several were hurt at the airport, taken to the hospital and released.
Mother and I played donimoes thru it all. When we heard it was close to Bridgeton and the airport we headed to the hallway where we giggled some and prayed silently for awhile. God is good. We had plenty of time to prepare as St. Louis was pretty good with the warnings. The Cardinal game was stalled for awhile then resumed and won the game. Go Cards!
It's always a wonderful Easter to be able to attend Church, hear the Resurrection Story, sing songs and fellowship with other believers. How blessed we are to live in a free country and be able to worship freely of a living Saviour, Jesus Christ.
Jerry sure had a good time hiding eggs for Chase. Was as much fun watching Jerry as it was Chase when he found them. Thank you Jerry & Aunt Linda for the filled eggs!

Beauty Before the Rain & Wind
Tonight as I was taking Molly "out" I noticed the beautiful blooms on our tulip tree and thought I should get some pictures. I was able to get a close up, one from behind them-showing their color and then the full tree. Just now my sister in St. Louis, Linda, called and said to turn on the weather channel ...they are forecasting severe wind and rain ... which will certainly take care of our beautiful tree. Seems like the weather gets it every year. I'm very thankful we have had it for the past two days.
Molly wants in! Tired of taking pictures of the top of trees!
Surprise Visit with the Sauser Family
Last Wednesday, March 30th, Jay, Tiffany and Riley stopped by to have supper with Tiffany's Mother. Someone told me and I made a B-Line (with camera) to the ROC Cafe to see them. Jay has "buffed up" a bit...sorry Jay...you still look good, Tiffany is radiant as a new mother and Riley was just precious. She actually let me hold her a bit but clearly wanted family to hold her. What a doll. They didn't bring Eddie but then I didn't have Molly. Oh well...still had a great visit with them. The Family has come back to Kansas City! They are helping with a Midtown church pastored by Adam. Prayers are with you.
Card Making With the Girls
Jessi-GmaK-Jan & Laine 
The Bradley Family was out and decided to stop by the "Senior Bradleys" ... needless to say I was needing some ideas for the Card Ministry which was the coming Tuesday. 'Lain & Jessi were more than willing to help. Thank you girls for some good ideas!
Jan helped Jessi pi
ck out some cool flowers for her card. 
Finished results! Beautiful! Oh yes, the cards are pretty too. :)

Fun in St. Louis and Kansas City
One weekend in St. Louis, a few months ago, I got to visit with a former student who had graduated college, married, moved to St. Louis and had a baby. This is myself with baby Owen. He was just bathed and smelled so good...love that baby scent. Congrats Katie he is precious!
What a wonderful weekend I had the first weekend in March. Nancy was driving to Columbia and came thru St. Louis. We met then went to Steak n Shake for lunch. Mother came with us. She said Nancy is so cute and happy she got to spend some time with her too...although Mother didn't say anything except Jr. Hamburger and small coke! Nancy and I hugged and giggled like some teenagers. I truly miss her but know she is where the Lord needs her and Jim. May God continue to bless them in Memphis.
These two adorable children are Reese and Abby. Reese likes his picture taken and Abby not so much. I feel lucky I had gotten this one. Reese and Abby are in town with their parents, Becky and Greg, to visit their PaPa Larson. Len has been in the hospital now for about six weeks. The doctors don't know why but he was really, really sick. You can keep up with him on caringbridge.org ... for LenLarson. Last week he could not walk at all and now he is making up time. Many, many prayers from all over the world have been flooding Heaven on his behalf. We praise the Lord for his progress and for Debbie's strength.
Getting back to the "kids" ... they were in Pa Pa's room for awhile when I arrived so they were allowed to go with me to look around the hospital ...ended up in the cafe with Slurpee's and chips. They were delightful to be around...so sharp and funny. Thank you Becky & Greg (and Granny) for letting me have them for a short time.
