Easter through April

Locklyn loves being outside

Kynlie loved eating snow

Locklyn loves Easter cookies

And being a dare devil

 We had a great Easter, Neil's parents took the girls down to the cabin on Friday and we went down Saturday afternoon. We went to church on Sunday and just hung out and ate great food Easter day.

We died Easter Eggs

But Locklyn got bored

Girls and their electronics

Girls and their toys!

 April was a crazy month. We went to Bismarck for March for Babies the first weekend. Neil had to make a last minute trip to Billings the Monday after so the girls and I rode along, spent the night and came back on Tuesday. 


Kynlie's first dance recital

 The next Thursday, my mom and I met my sister in Salt Lake City for a LifeVantage convention. LifeVantage is an all natural Nrf2 stimulator that we started distributing. The convention was a great motivator and very educational. We came home on Sunday. The next Tuesday, I was in the ER with chest pains. I had a lot of heart attack symptoms and a blood test came back positive for blood clots. Tons of blood work, and EEG, a chest x-ray, CAT scan and 4 hours later, I was diagnosed with inflamed cartilage between my ribs and sternum!

 Last Thursday, we loaded up and started driving to Kansas to visit my sister, bro-in-law and their boys. Our trip started out fine, we got pulled over for speeding, then ran into some bad roads. I was driving and had slowed down to about 65 when we hit a patch of black ice and slid all over the road and ended up in the ditch. We just put the pickup in 4 wheel drive and got out, but it was slow going from there. We got to KS Friday evening and went to a free Berenstein Bears play. Saturday we went into the Kansas City Zoo and ate some Chinese for supper. Sunday, Neil and Ken went to NASCAR races in KC. Monday we headed back home after lunch, only to drive on bad roads again. We got home Tuesday afternoon. It was a lot of driving, on bad roads, for a couple of full days of hanging out, but it was fun and great to see the boys.
