JMRHS Awards Day

It was awards day on Friday the 21st. Another graduation is almost here... Zachary received an Award in Military History. That was the perfect award for him :) I missed Alcides he had marched in before we got there. We will have two graduating.

A Beautiful Spring Day in NC

The weather has been so nice lately. We have really gotten to enjoy spring this year. The other day Zach and Abby were outside enjoying the day, doing sidewalk chalk, and just soaking up the sunshine.
Daisy loves being outside...

Angela and Zach were having fun with sidewalk chalk

and so was Abby. :)

:) Elder Page

It has been a discouraging time for Elder Page and his companion Elder Nuttall. They have had a lot of challenges in their work, but they keep trudging onward. It can be so hard at times when you are trying to share something that you love so very much and people don't want to listen or just don't quite get it. He also had his first bike wreck this week. He was rounding a corner in a parking lot and ran right into one of those cement bumbers that are in parking spots and flipped over his handle bars onto his face. He was banged up pretty good he said. Thank goodness he was wearing a helmet...safety first! This week are transfers...this will decide what mission he will be in. His mission is splitting so if he heads back towards AZ he will stay in his mission (Tucson) if he stays where he is at or close to it he will be in the NM mission. We will see. They are moving out of their house...it has been sold and will be living with Hermano Rivas, the Baker. Uh oh!!!! Watch out Matt :) All I know is that I miss my Matty so much and pray he is well and happy. He is doing his best at serving the Lord and the people of Fabens.

Always with the little ones having fun!

Another Recital...#12

I hate that I do not have any pictures in her costumes. I usually do that at dress rehearsal, only she did not go to that this year. She had another important engagement :) (1st date). Maybe I can get her to put them on for me so I can get some pictures. She did a great job once again. Mom and Dad came with Gordon and Kathy this year. They have never missed it! I will try to get some video up of some of her dances. Abby we are so proud of you and the talents you are developing...another great recital!Just after it was over

Everyone plus Jaclyn

We have ourselves an RN

Well we have ourselves an RN !!! Yep Jaclyn passed her test!!!!!! We are so very proud of her. She has worked so hard for this. Now she can have a short break and get out there and find a job :) For doing such a great job I made her this apron, it's reversible, and so cute on her. Great Job Jaclyn!!!

Mother's Day and Elder Page what a great combination!!!!!!!!!!

We had the most wonderful time talking to Elder Page and Elder Nuttall. They are both doing great! Having some amazing experiences and working soooo hard! We are so very proud of their efforts. He is still the same Matthew, but even better. We could tell how much he has grown in just the few short months that he has been gone. Wow what we he be when he comes home after 2 years!!! Their favorite past time...tracting :)

Beauty and the Beast was Excellent!!!!

JM Robinsons Production of Beauty and the Beast was EXCELLENT! So many from church came to see the play, Sis Blake and Gracie, Bro. and Sis Sabin, Tina and Mikayla Shaw, Family came too Debbie and Amber, Scott, Kara and all the kids. All said that it was so good and that Zach stole the show. He and Josh were soooo funny together! I was so very proud of Zach. I knew his personality would be perfect for drama, and all of those years of viewing Disney did not go to waste :)
Cogworth and Mrs. Potts

Cogsworth and Lumiere

These too stole the show!!!

Last night of the performance, instead of flowers we brought Zach's favorite sour warheads.

Zach had a lot of fun signing autographs!

Zach and the Ward robe, evidently she and Cogsy had a thing for each other...(in the play)

Gaston and Cogsworth

This was the role Zach hope to have, but he got the role that was perfect for him!!!

Great job guys!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Cogsworth & Belle

She did an amazing job!

Cogsworth, the wardrobe and the feather duster ( she had the perfect french accent)
