Mothers Day in Reno

I went with the Hastings to the Mothers Day program at their ward where Anders and Clara sang with the primary. Back at home I made a coconut cake for dinner. I gave Kris a lavender plant, a dark-chocolate Cadbury bar, and a homemade card.  We took a lovely hike up the Thomas Creek Trail to Timberline Drive, which is where, believe it or not, the timberline starts and where Rob and I started our Dry Pond loop the other day. Rob put together a delicious dinner: steak, roasted sprouts, garlic mashed spuds, and beautiful fresh berries. Tonight everyone is practicing the piano and getting ready for school tomorrow.

Not the best coconut cake I ever had

Tomorrow we head for home, so the excitement will likely end. That's all for now.
