Random March Happenings Part II (Post-Cruise)

Here are some fun things we did in March, after our cruise:


March 23
I'm not sure the exact date that I started this painting, but I really wanted to paint something Easter-ish to put in our front room. I chose Easter lilies. I was hoping to have it finished in time for Easter, but unfortunately it was not--but certainly early for next Easter!

March 23
I sent this cutie to the park to participate in the ward Easter activity at the nearby park. Even though I sent him with over 30 eggs to share, he came home with only 12 which is expected, but he wasn't happy with so little.

March 23
Elisa made a cake, almost entirely by herself! Half of it baked out of the too-small pan, but it came out all right. I helped her frost it.

March 24
I made Elisa a new dress for Easter using a curtain I found at Goodwill. If I had to do it all over again, I would have passed on the entire project. The curtain material was cheap and hard to work with. The dress itself turned out just okay. I had a few issues, but those were mainly due to the crappy fabric. She'll wear it every once in a while, though.

The many silly faces of Gabe. He apparently forgot how to smile!

Gabe helped take the old organ to the curb


Erik bravely agreed to sing some solos as in Thomas in The Lamb of God production put on by the Stake. He dutifully went every Sunday to practice and worked hard on his solos. This was Erik's first time singing solos. He did a great job and received lots of compliments afterwards! Here are the links to the videos I uploaded on Youtube.

  1. Elisa's cake looks good and her dress is very pretty. Gabe's hairstyle looks good in the bottom left picture. I listened to Erik's solos and they turned out very well. He was brave to accept the assignment to sing the solo parts.
