Bob and I are going to be gone for a short while, spending some time with our son and DIL! I'll tell you all about it when we get back.

Art Show!
Last week we got to go to an art show. It was put on by the Hudsonville School District and included pieces by kids from kindergarten to 12th grade. This is a large district and includes several elementary schools, several middle schools and the high school. The art teachers select art pieces to be put in it, and one of the artists was our Ruby!
They gather the pieces and put them on display in the town hall. They assign different days for the schools, so the kids can invite people to see their work. It's always a fun thing to go to.

And here's our Ruby! She's in 3rd grade and painted this stained glass window.
We had fun and Ruby was proud to have her piece of art shown. It's pretty incredible to see what some of these kids do. As we walked out, Laura said something about feeling like her talent is at kindergarten level after being there. I'm thankful God gives all of us different talents, but I do wish I had just a little ability to draw!

Spring is here!
It's the most wonderful time of the year! For me, that's Spring. After a long, cold winter, sunshine and warm temps are so welcome. Seeing the spring flowers, buds and leaves begin to pop is a happy sight.
We don't have too many yet, but they are starting.
On the front porch, Bob has taken our glider chairs out of the barn where they were stored for the winter. We're looking forward to spending time on the porch, enjoying the next few seasons.
