I can't believe it has been three weeks since I blogged but we have been busy with one thing or another.
We have got the taxes figured, sent in and all is taken care of for another year. Sure glad to get that chore done. We celebrated Easter - didn't celebrate too much. We went to church and then out to eat. My sister went with us. The boys and their families went to their in-laws for Easter so we celebrated with the grand kids on Saturday.
The week of the 13th we baby sat the two little grandsons a couple times. We haven't had them all that much since we have been home. Our schedules have been full and they have not been feeling well. They have had ear infections and colds - it will be good to have good weather and hopefully get rid of all the bugs...
On Thursday night the 16th we met our good friends, Linda and Frank; and Dora and Marlin for dinner and then went to Linda and Frank's to play cards. We taught them how to play Wizard. This is a card game we learned to play while in Florida. Had a fun time.
On Friday the 17th we drove to Columbia, MO.., to stay the night at our good friends, Jeannene and Warren. Our granddaughter, Emma, was having her state competition in gymnastics in St. Louis on Saturday, so we were going to drive on there on Saturday. She did very well and got a medal and five ribbons. She loves her gymnastics. After the competition was over we drove back to Columbia to stay the night. Then on Sunday we drove on to Lake of the Ozarks.
On Tuesday the 21st, Jeannene came by the condo and picked me up and we went to Branson for three days. We had a wonderful time doing what "girls" do on their day out. Went to Silver Dollar City one day; saw a music show - "Six" - which was very good; did lots of shopping, eating, and visiting!! Here is a picture of Jeannene in front of the Fish House - a restaurant at the Landing Shopping area. This restaurant is owned by the Bass Pro Company. It had some very good food - would recommend it.

Jack stayed at the lake and did lots of fishing. He caught some big bass - a 7 pound one; a 6 - 3/4 pound one; and a lot of smaller ones. He was in high heaven.....here is a picture of the big one.
We got back to KC on Friday, the 24th. Jack caught a nasty cold while he was at the lake and is not feeling the best.
Today my nephew, Todd, was in KC with his baseball team playing at a local college. Todd is the head coach of the baseball team at the Missouri University - Rolla, Missouri. So we went out to the local college to watch his team play. It was a good game and they won.
So you can see we have been busy with lots of different things going on in our life. This next week we will be busy with doctor appointments; volunteering; having lunch with a couple friends.
Have a good week!
