Does anyone even look at my blog anymore?

Well-if anyone out there hasn't completely given up on me-this is for you. I don't know where we've been all this time-we've been busy I guess, but that's everyone's excuse. I've just finished catching up on everyone else's blogs- I didn't comment but I sped-read and looked at pictures. Sorry it's been so long since I've posted. Here is an update and I'll try to keep up with things now! (We'll see)

1. March 11 was Mahlon's and my 4 year Anniversary.
2. Spring Break we went camping and visited Tucson (I'm sorry I didn't call anyone-we were babysitting Tania's (my sister) kids and had 8 little ones!
3. March 28 my Brother-in-law was married in Gilbert, Madison was the flower girl and I was holding two cameras, neither of which was a video camera and I hate myself for that!
4. Mahlon lost his job. Yes, he was cut despite our protests-we have to move in July with no prospects of any new job. All our spare time has been spent in job hunting.
5. Easter weekend we spent in Gilbert, dying eggs, finding Easter baskets,going to church, and having an Easter egg hunt.
6. Poor Mahlon spent Easter weekend with Strep.
7. I've been busy with my new calling: Ward Camp Leader (yes, I'm in charge of Girls Camp, luckily its a Stake Camp so my responsibilities are minimal but there is still a lot to do!

I'm feeling lazy so I don't want to give all the details but here are some pictures! There are pretty much in order.

I still look at your blog and hope there's a new post each time I do! I was glad to see a new one.

Madison looked so pretty as a flower girl. i wish we lived closer so that we could get her and Hallie together. I can imagine them being a lot alike.

I'm sorry to hear about Mahlon's job. I hope he finds something soon!

I check your blog daily! I was so excited to see that it had been updated!

Madison is the cutest little girl I have ever seen. She has such great facial expressions!

I am so sorry that your husband lost his job. Please let me know if there is anything I can do to help.

I've been looking at your blog waiting to see the results of the protests. Sorry they're not what you had hoped :(

Madison looks like she's grown so much. I love her curled hair and the flower in it. So pretty! Where are you guys moving to?

LOVE her flower girl dress! Good luck with the job hunt- there is lots of laying off going around TUSD too, mostly in the arts :(. Camp director? Do you get to go to Camp LoMia?! I Love it there and can never go to girls camp where you sleep in tents... we were spoiled with mattresses and showers.

And, yay, on the new calling! You'll do great! I always had a blast with you at Girls Camp!
