Time in High Island






We went to the beach at High Island to fly kites and David had the highest one, the Hawk. Janet actually got her feet wet and Carolyn came in second with her kite.

Spring Break


We finally had enough dry weather to get our yard graded and sod put down. Now we have to get our fence fixed and grass seed down on the parts that weren't sodded. Janet and I also spent some time with our parents at High Island.



Conference Weekend


Brooklyn came to visit for the weekend with her mom and dad. Some of the flowers next to our patio and Janet's visit during spring break.

Spring is Here!



The azaelas are blooming and spring has come to Louisiana. We enjoyed Brooklyn's birthday and we are looking forward to all of our company. My sister Janet comes next week for a few days. We have our spring break right now. Then Rebecca returns from Madrid on April 8th. T.J., Bethany, Kimberly, (plus babies)and Stephen (and Family) are planning on coming down to see her. With Rosalia that will make six ch ildren here at home.

My play was successful at the Speech and Play Festival even though we didn't win anything, however, two of my actors won $1,000 scholarships to McNeese and they were very excited. We did get a good review and an enthusiastic audience so we are fired up for next year.

The last nine weeks of school is here (Rosalia has only 6 more weeks) and I have a Student Council Workshop, Student Council Week, Student Council elections, and one more play for the school by my Acting One class. Rosalia's last day of school is May 9th and her graduation is May 16th.

Betty in her living room and flowers from Bruce in the dining area.


.
Flowers from Bruce and Janet to me, but the florist got the message garbled, "You're to sweet for candy, love Bongar!" I added the exclamation point, but kept all the misspellings! I made them call to make sure they had the right person since I have never in my life been told I was sweeter than candy!

Betty's new bedroom. We took away the two big euro pillows in the back. They were too much to manage. Her big walk in closet is to the left.
Ted setting up her computer. The shelf with the stuffed animals is right behind him. This is in the L to the right of her bed.
Betty's new bath room with shower.
Kitchen with glass fronted cabinets.

Looking from her bedroom as by the bed into the kitchen dining area. I wasn't able to get a picture of her dining area uploaded or a picture of her other chair in the living room. Maybe next time!

Betty's Move

This is her bureau just inside her room.
Her stuffed animals on the shelf opposite her computer.
The kitchen stove, etc.
Her living room.
Living room and china cabinet. I am sorry that these pictures are so haphazard. I am having trouble loading pictures and I didn't get them in the sequence that I wanted. We moved Betty on Saturday and then it took the next three days to unload and unpack and we still do not have everything unpacked. Ted even had to move his Midget out of the garage!
