snow day

We have our first snow day of the 2007-8 school year at Grant-Deuel in Revillo, SD.  We have not had much snow the past few winters.  Teachers and students are enjoying a day off.  

Hayley wanted a chocolate angel food cake for her birthday.  I did not have time to bake one so she had one from dairy queen that she shared with Keeda and Hannah and one from Culvers. Today I had spare time, so I made a square one and put it on Grandma's cake plate.  It looked and tasted good even though it had the powdered sugar frosting that my family likes better than the kind grandma made.  Anyway, Hayley, Dale, and I enjoyed it. Dale has to go to Aberdeen to watch Keegan tomorrow night.  They will go out with Hannah for her birthday during her supper hour.

Happy Birthday to Hannah Stewart April 1.  I am not sure of the dates, but Happy Birthday to Lucas Froehlich and Ty Nordvedt.  I am thinking one of them is April 6.

South Dakota State just finished spring break. Don and I headed to New Mexico for a few days. We visited Carlsbad Caverns and White Sands National Park -- both were great. I'd recommend them. We also stopped at the Very Large Array south of Albuquerque. It's a system of receivers that tracks radio waves in outer space. Very interesting also, but not for everyone.
Mostly we drove -- we put 1200 miles on the rental car in 3 days. Saw a lot of scenery!!!

Happy Birthday Hayley! And I see a whole bunch of birthdays the first week of April -- including my son's! That snuck up on me! I'll have email and see what's on his birthday list!

Doris Threadgold

Remember grandma, Doris Threadgold, who died March 26, 2007.  I still have to think twice sometimes when I hear something that I want to share with her or need to ask her opinion about something and automatically go to the phone.

Our "Irish" Meal!!

HI!! Happy St. Patrick's Day!! The only way we have celebrated our"Irish" heritage is through, food, of course!!! Since the kids have been little we've had: spinach fetticine, with "green" alfredo sauce; pistashio pineapple salad, and green cake (lemon cake with lime jello). The kids have looked forward to it over the years and I still make it. Enjoy today! Kathie
