Spring is Here

Winter finally abated and beautiful Spring has arrived.  Avery and Lydia have been spending hours and hours outside exploring, holding bugs, and splashing in puddles.

Calder Maurice Hammond

Todd's father passed away on our anniversary.  Losing him and going through the funeral was much harder than I expected.

I was driving with Lydia this morning when the Mormon Tabernacle Choir came on the radio and sang, "Hush Little Baby, Don't You Cry." I told Lydia that it was Grandpa Hammond singing to her.
