28 March 2010 - Sterling Heights, Michigan


Sunday 28th - Dear Family,
Tis the season - Spring, as defined by the vernal equinox, had no problem finding Michigan, but the weather has struggled to be sunny and warm.  Robins have found their way back and several deer, hidden during the winter months, have been seen in the backyard - five were spotted walking around in the backyard at sunrise one morning. Any thoughts of a vegatable garden this season have waned.
Creativity - Holli and Dad worked a double shift on the chest of drawers project this week, and it is about ready to be assembled. Ryan’s basement project was put on hold this weekend due to a Scout campout and a Ward activity commitments.
Relief - Dad is so happy to be finished with the scaling process on his teeth.  Dad’s CT scan showed the lungs are free of pneumonia with no residual scarring.  Good News!  Now if they could figure out why the coughing and wheezing are not gone as well...  Mom’s broken toe seems to be totally healed and she has returned to full activity.
Power Shopping - Mom & Dad have been looking to buy a new car. Test drives of the Escape, Edge and Lincoln MKX and consideration of the Navigation system, Moon Roof, I4 or V6 engine (fuel economy), AWD features and the associated price have used up the leftover time & energy resources of this week without producing a conclusion.  
First Impressions - Dan was sworn in as a Canyon County Deputy Sheriff on Wednesday.  However, the solemn/professional ceremony did not impress Abby or Sarah as being a fun time thus setting off a session weeping and wailing to point that Lara had to take them outside. There is nothing like leaving a solid lasting memory of the Mills’ Family.  Kids - You got to love them! Good start guys!
Love y’all,  Mom & Dad
