We had a wonderful time at Aleisha's graduation from Spokane Community College. We are proud of her.
We also went to Jaleyna's graduation from Central Valley High. I took a great picture of her receiving her diploma. However, when I got home my memory stick was still in my computer. So sad.
Congratulations to both of these precious granddaughters.
Here's an update on our garden. We have had lots of rain but the sun and warm weather seems to be holding. Everything is growing, growing. We have already had several batches of beet greens and chard. It is so good!

We love to attend the special events such as April's ballet recitle.

We had lots of fun helping Roger and Leanne plant their garden. Pictured with Samantha.

Wow! Ed got a triple word, triple seven letter word - 140 points. Unletter is a term for "not rented". Good going, Ed.

Christian and Troy sewed and mounted their scout flag. They are the Lightning Patrol. The gromets on the sides are for the lightning bolts with each Scouts name. The holes along the top are for award ribbons and flags. They did a great job and love to work on Scout projects and merit badges together.

Our house was so in need of a paint job so I chipped paint off one side for days and days with a little knife. Elder Millet primed one strip to see if the old cedar siding would actually take a paint job nicely. We finally decided it was time to reside the house.


The workers showed up late on a Friday, tore off part of the old siding and left their huge truck in front of the house for the weekend. I guess this is part of their advertising.

Three guys are working: One tears off and nails up the form insullation. Another works on the continuous metal siding and another bends the metal that forms around the windows and doors. They are doing a great job. The color is New York Champange with brown trim.
