Tho' April Showers....er..I mean Tho' April Snow!

Evan got the opportunity to wear his cute little snow suit and go 4-wheelin' with his Dad. He actually loved it and refused to smile at me because he just wanted his Dad to rev up the engine and take him somewhere with the dogs running along side barking.

Allen got the opportunity to feed the cows while Earl went off "spring vacationing!" The bad thing was that it was an absolute blizzard for a day, a night and a day, and there was tons of snow. Earl left the tractor parked outside the gate with the hay on the platform, so the Bossy Moo Cows decided to feed themselves. When Allen arrived, the cows had ripped the hay off the platform, were in my yard and I WASN'T HAPPY!!!

The Fudge Fairy was up to her tricks again! She held a boutique at the Francis Town Building on Saturday. She was the vendor who gave away free samples of candy and had her signature sugar cookies awaiting your watering taste buds. Dixie is an amazing woman--ambitious, motivated, a heart of prue gold and successful! We love you, Dix!

I paid a visit to Evan and watched the Jazz game with his Mom and Dad. I yelled, "YEAH!" and was clapping my hands. His Dad had him sitting in a box filled with toys and as soon as I said, "YEAH!" he looked up and smiled and clapped his hands and said, "YEAH!" Every time after the initial "YEAH," whenever he looked at me, if I said the magic words, he would get wild and crazy and clap and scream, "YEAH!" and clap his hands.


Does anyone think Evan looks EXACTLY like Patrice in this picture? I do! He was yelling, "YEAH!" I hope Grandpa is having as much fun with the other kids as I am with Evan! Hope all you Spring Breakers are having fun!

I was going to call you to see if you were so lonely without everyone, but it looks like you are definitely keeping yourself busy and giving that Evan boy some much-needed grandma time! He does look like Patrice in that picture, I agree! What a smartie to cheer for the Jazz with you!

Glad you are enjoy your time! Although I do wish you were here too!

Evan LOVED his visit from Grandma, and he did stay true to the Jazz, even when it looked like they were going to blow a 30 point lead. He can't wait for his next trip to your house to see the cows and ride the four-wheeler.

Oh my gosh, that Evan boy is so cute. I wish I could have seen him cheering in person! He's such a cutie (and yes, he does look like a Patrice look-alike).

Rajko is wishing his grandma were here. We both miss you a lot!

Ah, raising up a new generation of farmers. Got to keep it in the family. Evan is so cute, I love how vocal he is and how excited he gets. We had a great time on vaca, but wished you would've been there with us. Although, I am sure that you had quite the vacation without everyone here!

I am not as happy with the April showers as you seem to be. I am past ready for spring and yard work! We had a great time on vacation and would have loved to share some time with you as well. Evan is so lucky to have you there to teach him the true way to cheer for the jazz. You have a long line of farmers ahead of you with all those BOYS!

How cute he is! Yes, I agree with you on the whole looking like his mom thing. Isn't farm life so fun!!! Hopefully the snow will eventually melt and maybe we will have Spring....
