Not pictured: General Conference. We had the usual food, JoAnne didn't come because of the Coronapocolypse. Conference was broadcast with only the speakers. No congregation.
April Fools Day. I felt the world was already playing a trick on us so I didn't do anything creative. Marc did tie the kids door together😂
We celebrated Easter and Jaycie's birthday together. Easter was on the 12th. Jaycie's birthday on the 13th. It was also Alyssa's birthday. She did call on her birthday.
On Easter it was weird not going to church, but we did an Easter Devotional using a lot of material Alyssa sent us that she created on her mission

· Chocolate Bash
Braden St George
Non Cruise
Disneyland
Cornonapocolypse
Mikaela’s Birthday
· Earthquake
March was a crazy month. Women United had our annual Chocolate Bash, which went really well. Marc and I then left that weekend for our cruise. We went with Jacques and Associates. We got to California, checked in and waited and waited. After 9 hours, we were told the cruise was cancelled. They never said why but we knew it was because of Covid19. Covid 19 was a pandemic that was sweeping the world and we knew it was kinda risky going because another cruise was quarantined in the middle of sea and some of the people were infected. We found out later, that a worker from the quarantined cruise came over to work on our cruise ship and the Cdc was concerned. That's why it was cancelled. It was nuts! The 14 of us were shuttled with the other 2000 to the La airport Marriott hotel. There we rented some vans and drove to Annaheim to stay at an

Once we got home, the Coronapocolypse happened. Thursday, things started to shut down. We were know longer able to go to church, we were told to stay home if we can. People started to work from home. Friday all schools closed and the kids started doing online school.
The stores were crazy and the world ran out of toilet paper:/
And if that wasn't bad enough on Wednesday, Mikaela's birthday, there was an earthquake. I thought it was going to be the 2nd coming for sure. But it wasn't. Mikaela came over and we played games and order J Dawgs. Sunday we celebrated her birthday with a barbecue.
Missionaries are being sent home. Those in foreign lands and those with health issues. Alyssa gets to stay, but she is doing missionary work mostly online.

Braden-Sweethearts
f Isaac's parents invited us to Woodland one Saturday. We had lunch at the Woodland Biscuit (the same place of Mikaela and Isaac's reception and then we spent the afternoon at their cabin. We tied a snow tube at the end of their snowmobile and went for rides. We also built a fire and roasted hot dogs and had hot chocolate.
We got new family room furniture. I wanted a Tv stand with a fireplace and we knew after Christmas the price would go down on the one we wanted.
Valentines day. We ordered heart shaped pizza.
I wanted to try a hike by the Timpanogas park, but it wasn't really a hike. So we explored above the park. We found where the deer sleep. the weeds were matted down and lots of deer droppings. We didn't see any deer.

Marc and I were invited to attend the Light the City event for Orem. The Mayor was there, and other dignitaries (including Santa) and we all gave our favorite children's book to Santa to help with the Read Early, Read often Initiative
We did the 12 days of Christmas to a couple in the ward. We gave them fun gifts along with money and gift cards. The lady got up in Testimony meeting in January and said how grateful she was because it gave them an opportunity to have a nice Christmas. They never suspected us. Kudos to the fam for having a poker face (yes in church;) when she talked about it.
We went to Kent's 60th birthday party at Los Hermanos. Afterwards the girls and I went to a late night movie and saw Frozen 2
We actually donated to the Giving Machines one night
We had our traditional Christmas eve dinner. Junior from the ward came
