March brought us a wonderful surprise. Through 23andMe, Emily was reconnected with her daughter who was placed for adoption in 1994. So we added a new branch to the family tree. March also included a celebration of Hank and Colette's 69th anniversary and Dickie's 78th birthday.

April included a get-together with Brigham and Michelle at their refurbished Provo home and Group dinner at the Astle's: buffalo burgers. We got to meet Mo when she joined the family for dinner on the second Sunday. Toward the end of April, the Utah side of the family hosted the semi-annual reunion for Kris's siblings. And on the last day of the month, Tucker was arrested for protesting at the University of Utah.
