Richard mowed the lawn for the first time this season on Saturday evening, and the lawn, blossoming trees, and tulips are beautiful. We stayed up late that night talking to Tim and Queenie about their adventures. Queenie will complete her bachelor&#8217;s degree this month and Tim is busy helping his friend Josh build a house and has some stories to tell about being a property manager. They made a trip recently to Arches National Park and Goblin Valley, which were firsts for Queenie.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">We had a freeze a few nights this week, and Richard protected his apple tree blossoms with a tarp and heater.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><a href=\"http:\/\/www.angelaross.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/04\/1000011005-scaled.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"576\" height=\"1024\" src=\"http:\/\/www.angelaross.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/04\/1000011005-576x1024.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-32153\" srcset=\"http:\/\/www.angelaross.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/04\/1000011005-576x1024.jpg 576w, http:\/\/www.angelaross.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/04\/1000011005-169x300.jpg 169w, http:\/\/www.angelaross.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/04\/1000011005-768x1365.jpg 768w, http:\/\/www.angelaross.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/04\/1000011005-864x1536.jpg 864w, http:\/\/www.angelaross.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/04\/1000011005-1152x2048.jpg 1152w, http:\/\/www.angelaross.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/04\/1000011005-scaled.jpg 1440w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 576px) 100vw, 576px\" \/><\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><a href=\"http:\/\/www.angelaross.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/04\/1000011042-scaled.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"576\" src=\"http:\/\/www.angelaross.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/04\/1000011042-1024x576.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-32151\" srcset=\"http:\/\/www.angelaross.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/04\/1000011042-1024x576.jpg 1024w, http:\/\/www.angelaross.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/04\/1000011042-300x169.jpg 300w, http:\/\/www.angelaross.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/04\/1000011042-768x432.jpg 768w, http:\/\/www.angelaross.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/04\/1000011042-1536x864.jpg 1536w, http:\/\/www.angelaross.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/04\/1000011042-2048x1152.jpg 2048w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">We had our middle kids with us on Sunday. Add to the energy and events of Easter weekend the four sessions of general conference, which we watched while eating cinnamon rolls, Chex mix, and peanut M&amp;M&#8217;s. We also visited Daniel and McKenna&#8217;s newly remodeled house where they will live after Daniel graduates this month.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Although we didn&#8217;t get a complete family picture this Easter weekend, we almost had one on Sunday during a video call.
