Changes, Thoughts, Distractions.............

The last weekend (the same weekend that Payson was baptized) - before everything got crazy, Thatcher had (what turned out to be his LAST) his state gymnastics tournament.  It didn't start until 5:00 at night, and we didn't get home until 9pm.  It was at the Exhibit building at the Weber County Fairgrounds.  Here he is with his friend Ben, and Tagg. 
Looks like gymnastics is cancelled for now.........like everything else.  We were planning on MAYBE going to Albuquerque for Regionals..........but no more (CANCELLED)>
Landon sent me this cute picture of Payson on his Baptism Day.  I'm glad he was able to do this before the world fell apart.  Don't know when Thatcher will get baptized.  Maybe we'll have to do it in the creek !
I'm always "clipping" pictures that bring me peace.
And Quotes !!  This one below is from Howard W. Hunter. 
“Fear, which can come upon people in difficult days,
 is a principal weapon in the arsenal which Satan uses to make mankind unhappy. He who fears loses strength for the combat of life in the fight against evil. Therefore the power of the evil one always tries to 
generate fear in human hearts.
 In every age and in every era, mankind has faced fear.”
So True Cam - So True !!!
Missing Cam (and family) in Arizona.  Wish they were closer.  She was out with Spring Break, the week everything blew up.  Now schools are closed, and she's still home.  We'd love to have her come and visit - but how do we get her here without putting her on a  germ infested plane?  What  if they close the state borders and we can't get her home?  ..........hey, that's not such a bad idea (wink wink) 
Amid the distractions this past weekend, we kept cleaning out the shop.  Know any good hunters?  We've got 18 decoys we'll make you a heck of a deal on............    I told dad, maybe we should just line them up on his front lawn, and cause a stir to passer-bys :) 
Saturday was a GREAT DAY for flying kites !!  Man, did those kites fly !!   Tagg and Thatcher had a great time (so did Zac, and Me and Roger).  We had finished up at the shop, and were heading home, and I noticed they were getting ready to have some fun, so I turned around at the Richville Lane, and went back to join them.  
The wind was GLORIOUS !!
The two kites flew so high - out to the end of the string line on both of them.  
Remember these ?  I asked Zac if he was going to sell it, but he said no.  He wanted to take it home, and see if the kids even knew how to operate it !  I proceeded to DIAL my old home number.  9-6082.  I could still remember Grandpa and Grandma Dickson's  9-3394, and Grandma Tonks - 9-3760, and Uncle Norris and Aunt Pams - 9-6640. 
Bright also had a dance competition?  review? on that last big weekend.  She sure looks cute in her costume.  I hope she had fun.  I suppose dance, tumbling, etc. are all cancelled now.  I don't know for sure. 
And something CUTE to end with.  What a face !!
Love you Bexlee :)
