Shanne, This One's For You!

Today I had the opportunity to spend a good portion of the day with my great friend, Shanne, as well as Tammy, Marilyn, and Keri. We had a terrific time! We started off the day at the Weber County Fairgrounds at the scrapbooking sale. Unfortunately Shanne wasn't able to go to the sale with us, but Marilyn, Tammy & I managed to have a good time nonetheless. We got some fun scrappin' supplies and then headed to a little roadside shop that sells all kinds of beautiful wreaths.

We still had a little bit of time before we were to meet Shanne and Keri for lunch, so we drove down to "Grandma's Attic" craft boutique in North Ogden. They had some of the cutest ideas for wall decor that I have ever seen! Too bad that I didn't have tons of money, I could have spent a bunch there.


After craft shopping, we drove down to Bellas (Molinas) where we met Shanne and Keri. It was a great lunch! Great food, great atmosphere, and great friends. We laughed and talked for hours! That Shanne is so funny! I was babysitting Kalel, so we had quite a bit of excitement as he started splashing his food all over every one, but mostly he was adorable as usual. Shanne even managed to get in some business over lunch, so she felt like the day was a success.


I'm so grateful for great friends like Shanne, and Tammy, Marilyn, and Keri!

Looks like a great time. I love those craft boutiques. There's always such good ideas. Good thing you have a handy husband who can replicate them.

Hey I heard you went to the cool store by Smith & Edwards. Didn't you love it? I still haven't made it inside ~ just window peeking, but it looks amazing!

Glad you had such fun! Shanne is such a hoot!

Memories:  These vintage pictures surfaced this month.  I just love looking at old pictures remembering how things were - especially when the pictures are of loved ones who are no longer with us.  I love seeing Grandpa and Grandma surrounded by family.  They loved being with family!  This made me smile.

We had a marvelous time!  So much so that Kim has decided that he wants to build our own axe-throwing lane in our backyard!  I believe t

Fun Day With Bubba

Image
Today Bubba and I had a great day! First we joined Ash and Tristan for a visit to the park. Bubba and Tristan ran and rolled and climbed and had all kinds of fun! Later, Kim and I had to run to Logan, so we decided that a quick trip to Willow Park was in order. Bubba was so excited to see all of the animals there. We saw turtles, geese, swans, cranes, peacocks, and deer. We watched an owl eating his dinner. We saw a couple of young antelope fighting - I think they were really just playing! We even saw a couple of wallabies! Of course, Bubba's favorite part was feeding the ducks! He got a little nervous if one got too close, but as long as they kept their distance, he had a blast throwing food to them. I'm sure that he just about wore himself out with all of the walking and running and playing. I know that I did!

Mom is Coming Home

Image
We just got word today that mom can come home from Rehab tomorrow morning – a week earlier than we had expected. Needless to say, mom is thrilled at the prospects of being home again, and dad is quite excited also. I have to admit, I have mixed feelings. Honestly, it has been very nice having mom in a place where I knew that they were taking very good care of her. The food there is fantastic, the workers are extremely pleasant and friendly, and her care was wonderful. She has gained an incredible amount of muscle strength through her two-a-day physical therapy sessions, and they are fanatical about making sure that her food and fluids are exactly what she needs. Consequently mom is actually in better overall health now than she has been in the last two years. It has been nice for me to have them watching over her continuously to make sure that she does what she is supposed to and also to make sure that she doesn’t cheat on her diet or fluid restrictions. It has been wonderful to take
