April is a busy month

WOW!!!!!!!!
what a busy month this has been already. We have had so many things going on and so many things still to happen. The first weekend in April we had a baby shower on Saturday afternoon, a dinner in the evening and Easter Sunday mass and Kynlee Plienis' baptism. Jack was asked to be Kynlee's godfather. He was so proud and so excited. The boys had so much fun on Saturday as we colored Easter eggs. They each had 18 eggs to do. Charlie had his finished in no time, so Will gave him some of his. I love to watch them color eggs. What an awesome tradition! They had fun with their Easter baskets and even had plastic eggs to find. The Easter bunny hid eggs around the family room. Then off to our church and then to the Methodist church for the baptism. What a beautiful day. The sun was out! Later in the day, we even cleaned out our garage. That was a project that was long overdue. What a gross job. Last weekend we had state wrestling in New Salem. Jack did awesome. He pinned 2 of his 3 matches and took 2nd. He was very proud to bring a home a trophy. Saturday night we went to the Martina McBride and Trace Atkins concert at the civic center with Cassie and Kameron. I wasn't to sure about Trace, but did recognize some of his songs. He sure has a deep voice. Martina was awesome, I have always loved her. She can sure sing. She is so tiny. She is older than I am and I know that I could not keep up with her. She is all over the place. We had a great time.
Sunday morning was our good friend Ryan Brown's first Holy Communion. We had mass at our old church in Bismarck and then to Sarah's for lunch. What a great day, he looked so cute all dressed up . Thanks for letting us share in such a special celebration with you.
Monday morning, Paul and I headed to Fargo for our annual Funeral Directors convention. It is always so nice to see everyone and learn new things. Paul was elected to the National Funeral Directors Policy Board again for another 3 years. YEAH! He really enjoys this position and has met so many wonderful people. We will enjoy 3 more years of traveling and attending funeal director functions. We got home on Wednesday and met Shannon, Sarah and their families and went to "walking with the Dinosaurs" What an incredible show. The dinosaurs were so life like and so loud. There were times that you jumped back in your seat. T-Rex was very big and had a very scary growl. If you get the chance to go, do so. It was a great show, everyone we were with had a great time and loved the show.
Today is it back to work. I am finishing up on things for a funeral tomorrow. I am going to go to Bismarck tomorrow and do a spring burial for Paul. This weekend we have lots of company coming for Jack's first Holy Communion. He is very excited. Once he does this then he can be a mass server. Keep Jack in your prayers as he is finally able to take part in the body and blood of Christ. We are so excited for him. God Bless you Jack!
I will update on our weekend later and post pictures of his special day.
thanks for checking in on us.
