Easter Break with the Gemignani's

We travelled to Santa Cruz and met my sister, Sheila, and her husband, Dino, and 2 girls, Corrina and Angela. We stayed for a couple days there where Dino's mother lives and then Emma and I returned to Arroyo Grande with Dino and Sheila while Dale drove back to Redding. We spent the week relaxing, checking out the beach, doing a little shopping and just hanging out together. Emma enjoyed "Annana" (Angela), "Caweena" (Corrina), "She-a" (Sheila) and "Dino". But she really was taken with one of their cats, Rico. Dale came to pick us up and we made the drive back to Redding.

6 months pregnant! Feeling Great. We finally decided to go with a midwife for prenatal and labor/delivery ~ Nora McNeill.




















Dale has been keeping up with our vegetable garden. Our winter greens began to do better when we started getting some more sun. Dale and Emma worked on planting seeds for spring vegetables. She was really intrigued by the roly-poly bugs.






















Dale also went on his mission trip to San Francisco at the end of March. His team was awesome and they really saw God show up as they ministered to people there.
