March comes in like a lion and leaves like a lamb

March blew in and out so fast. Nick and siblings - Milo, Marianne made their planned heritage trip to Holland. Their brother Bill, who was to make the journey with them, died suddenly of a heart attack just before the trip. He was greatly missed. They came back with so many pictures I dont know where to begin to put them on the blog. A tip from Nicki, enabled me to take advantage of an opportunity to create a picture book at a great, highly reduced promotional price. I was able to make the 2 day deadline- 82 pages and 295 pictures later. My first book ever. I will try to link it up to the blog soon. While Nick was in Europe, Clara and I and Joni went to DC to visit Nicki. While we were there we celebrated young Clara's entrance into double digit birthdays - the big 10. I have a few pictures. Joni and Nicki took several. Will also try to get them posted soon. Easter was a beautiful day We were so blessed to be able to celebrate the resurrection of our Lord with family.

********************************************** Let me try to catch up on my blogging beginning with youngest. --- This is the Wiese Family over Easter/Springbreak. Stacy sent me the pictures and I am grateful. I believe they visited Cincinnati and the bridge is the pedestrian bridge over the Ohio River. They also visited the Louisville Zoo.

On the ground: Stacy, Nico, Andrew In the tree: Kiefer, Nicolaas, Sierra

Kiefer scored ten goals (soccor) this week-end and is also missing two more teeth.

Sierra got straight A's and is on the tennis team.

Nicolaas got A's and B's and has been selected for mempership in the Junior Honor Society.

This is their new puppy, a golden-doodle named, "Friedley" Andrew on the bridge. Above and below:

Kiefer - Where the wild things are! Andrew with the animal they named "Walking teeth"

"I'm forever blowing bubbles Pretty bubbles in the air- They fly so high They nearly reach the sky..... " Ggpa song
