We didn't venture out of our home too often, but I made masks for everyone in case they needed to go out. And Seth had someone making masks for all the missionaries when they ventured to the grocery store as well. I feel like Seth is having more fun than we are wearing his mask. :)
Speaking of Seth, he is still happy, working hard and finding joy in doing missionary work a whole new way. He is still pretty busy and having success finding and teaching people the gospel of Jesus Christ, though all of his lessons and meetings are done virtually now. One of the people he is teaching is being baptized this weekend, which will be his third baptism since he was quarantined. So the work continues to move forward.
We found some fun ways to stay entertained at home. Our days were filled with work for Bryce, Megan and Devin, and school for Autumn, Devin and Megan.
Knowing that we would most likely be having Megan and Mitch's wedding in our backyard, we got busy getting light and plants out to the patio Bryce built last summer. It was a lot of work, but the patio is now our favorite little oasis. We go out there to read books, have zoom meetings, do school work and to roast s'mores in the evenings.
We celebrated Easter with an outdoor Easter egg hunt and coloring eggs on the Saturday before Easter, and Autumn decorated our front walk with beautiful springtime sidewalk chalk.
Autumn also decided to break up the monotony of being at home all the time by dying her hair pink...
...it only lasted a few days.
Devin, Megan and Autumn decided to have a campout in the family room, so we set up a tent and they stayed up late talking and camping in our indoor tent. It was fun except for the fact that Frankie decided he wanted to join in the fun and pawed at the outside of the tent during the night. :)
We also spent a lot of evenings playing games, and watching movies
We also discovered that our new vase makes really cool rainbows each morning when the sun hits it just right...
We also spent time making, changing and re-making plans for Megan and Mitch's wedding coming up next week. After we had to change the location because of State parks being closed and the date because of bad weather, Megan and Mitch finally got to do their formal wedding photos at a cool place called Red ledges up Spanish Fork canyon. It was FREEZING cold and we had to hike up a mountain to get some of the shots, but they turned out pretty awesome and Megan loved feeling like something about her wedding felt normal. Here are just a few of our favorites:
Tune in next month to see photos of the actual wedding day. :):):)
