The Lip Sync Challenge

 Dayotn and Brooke challenged us all to a lip sync contest this week.  It was so fun watching everyone's fine work.  This is a glimpse of what Mariah and I created.  It was to the CRV song which we thought was pretty fitting.

Dave's Retaining Wall

 Dave is working hard on the retaining wall and has finally hired the neighbors to help.  Gosh, we miss our boys!
 We did order the most giant pizza we've ever seen to feed them when they were done.

The Super Lazy Easter Bunny

 Usually the Easter Bunny hides candy and money in eggs and hides them around the house.  This year that lazy bunny just sprinkled it all around the house.





Making Lots and Lots of Masks

 Well, the coronavirus has required a lot of mask making, so I stepped up my skills and made over 150 masks.  We have been giving them to the Relief Society sisters and their families.





Easter Crafts

 We made the classic string eggs this Easter.  It's a good time for crafts since we can't do anything else. :)




DeeAnne's Virtual Cruise

 DeeAnne and Joyce were on the virtual cruise as well and DeeAnne posted a lot of great adventures.  Joyce, not so many.  But DeeAnne and Soren and Anson had a themed dinner every night!
 Their formal photos turned out really nice. 
 This is a little screenshot of some of our texts about our exciting adventure.
 DeeAnne's cabin view was not quite what she expected.  It was one of those "obstructed view" cabins, much like we had a few years ago. ;)
This was the one towel creation they had in their room.  :)

Our Virtual Cruise

Well, the mighty coronavirus caused our annual Daddy-Daughter cruise to be canceled.  Corona is really messing up everything right now.  I was pretty bummed, to say the least.  But, we made the best of it and had a virtual cruise with Joyce and DeeAnne.  It was all through texts and pictures and it was hilarious, but you really needed to be a part of all of that wonderful stuff to truly appreciate it.  Here are a few pictures of our adventures we shared.

This was the lovely towel creation that my room steward made. The Oreo eyes and carrot nose made it quite authentic.
This is me enjoying a loving ship day on the deck reading my favorite book.
We had some great serenading on the Mexico themed night.
The jogging tract around the ship was much bigger than any we had ever been on.  We did have to watch out for cars, trucks and semis though.
We came across some other cruise ships that were docks for the day.
We saw an assortment of wild animals on our excursions.
The formal night was quite lovely.  We really dressed up and photographer took us all around the ship for pictures.


Once again, the fitness center was great.  We worked out every day and the instructors always seemed to have a lot of positive energy.
