Don't Miss the Easter Pageant!!!

This photo is around 30 years old...Notice Jeremy at left in the front and Grandpa Organ watching as Mike (Jesus) speaks with a young boy. This picture is still the one featured on LDS.org under About the Church - Places to Visit. It will probably be replaced soon, so enjoy!

As you know, dear children, Mike, Mel, Erik, Kylie & Jadyn are performing in the Mesa Easter Pageant every night except Monday & Sunday, beginning Tue March 31st (which is a public dress rehearsal) Friday 3rd & Sat. 4th are Spanish speaking nights, so brush up on your language skills, or go a different night! Be sure you keep you eye out for Kylie's swan song (her last year as the "dead girl") with her mama and daddy, of course. And don't be afraid when you see Papa in his High Priest costume covered in bells and pomegranates (he'll explain what those are for) He is Caiaphas who was a not so righteous man when it came to accepting Jesus as the Messiah. This is a switch for him and he is doing his best to play the part. Personally, I dropped out as a "grass person" since Robin arrives the last week of performances and I wanted to be free to be with her as she gets settled in - can you BELIEVE she's finally coming home!! Speaking of....don't forget our Easter Celebration at Lane & Bobbie's on Sat. Apr. 11th at 1pm. We're so excited for Steele, Amy, Abi Cakes + ? and the whole Sahuarita gang + ? to arrive!!

I'll also email this info as I doubt all of you are "followers" of my pathetic Blog!

Well, back to work - just wanted to chime in about all that's coming up!

My next post will include photos of all the aforementioned! XOXO MigMommy

Lane & Bobbie Sittin' in a Tree....

What a fun 60th Birthday party at Lane & Bobbie's abode - thanks for the fabulous BBQ - all the little 'grands' finally have a homestead!

Visitor from Up North

Mark & Neena continue to outdo themselves (cause no one else is even in the running)! The cousins had a great time with Auntie and each other - wish everyone could have made it! Teri Ann announced her baptism that night - congratulations!!




There's always lots of fun and FOOD when Auntie comes to town!


Here we are after stuffing ourselves at Charleston's - delectable!


Good-bye J's - have a nice life in El Centro! Come back and see us soon!


Thanks for coming down Aunt Virginia - we sure love your visits!

Valentine Baby - almost!

The highlight of February was Anna Kay's 1st Birthday Party on Sunday the 15th - it was well attended and everyone enjoyed a buffet feast as only Ruth can create!

Shelby Dr. Under Attack!!

What we thought was a freak snow storm during the night...turned out to be what we thought was a vicious act of teenage terrorism! Upon closer investigation...we discovered other innocent neighbors had also been singled out. Suspiciously, all targets happened to be leaders in the local religious group known as Maricopa 4th Ward. They dusted the materials for fingerprints, but the CSI lab was unable to process the evidence...Horatio was out of town (attending a "Posing" seminar in New York)and no one else was competent enough to run the highly sophisticated equipment. We will forward details on the progress of this crime as they become available! News Flash...it's weeks later and the mystery has been solved...some crazy ladies (and I use that word loosly) in our ward had too much time and too much toilet paper on their hands one night - and you see what their great minds came up with! Thanks Jen, Chelsea, Emily and others! Love ya!

Bumper Lemon Crop Reported

Yes indeedy! We produced a HUGE crop of TEN lemons this year...now don't push, there's plenty for EVERYBODY!

January...Schmanuary!

Okay - does anyone see Abi in this picture?

This is a photo I've never seen - Cheri's husband Bruce just sent a bunch of photos of our family - More to come...
