A little feast without the calories!! 

Please visit Jodi's blog!  She posts these for us.   Feel free to play along for some yummy fun! She will post a new one each Thursday night.JOIN IN!!! 

Food 4 Thought Friday ~ This week's questions:
Breakfast ~ What have you loved the most about this past week? 
I have loved spending some much needed time with my sweetie this week!  I do love that man!
Lunch ~ Briefly tell how you met your "love".
I was working at Pizza Hut, he came in with a mutual friend, Brian, to invite me to attend a Young Adult dance that weekend.  We had a tradition of hugging all of the Young Adults, so as part of the invitation each of them gave me a big hug.  I told them I would only go to the dance if one of them would pick me up, stay with me the entire night, and bring me home so I wouldn’t have to be alone.  Kim quickly stated, “I’ll do it!”  They stayed only a few more minutes and then left.  As soon as they left I told the other waitress that I was going to marry Kim.  I knew from the moment we had that first hug. 
Dinner ~ What are your plans for Valentine's Day?
Valentine’s Day has never been a big deal to us because our anniversary is Feb 12 (today).  We are going to Desert Star Playhouse to watch the play, “My Valley Fair Lady” a parody of “My Fair Lady”.
Midnight Snack ~ List 10 things you LOVE about your life right now.
Wow, 10 things?  I may have to dig deep to come up with that many because I am smack in the middle of the February doldrums.
·         I love being married to my best friend
·         I love having a child who lives in heaven (although I miss him SO much!)
·         I love having an adorable (although sometimes ornery) grandchild
·         I love having two beautiful daughters
·         I love my home remodel
·         I love my job
·         I love that I have dramatically reduced my Dr. Pepper consumption
·         I love that I have a plethora of great friends and family members
·         I love that I have a Master’s degree
·         I love that I am a member of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints

Recipe for the Week ~ (instead of your recipe for life, what is it just for the week?)


Kim's Answers:

Breakfast ~ What have you loved the most about this past week? 
Going to the Desert Star with my sweetheart.
Lunch ~ Briefly tell how you met your "love".
If you will look at my wife’s post she will probably do a lot better job of telling than I would. 
Dinner ~ What are your plans for Valentine's Day?
Church and work.  We are not big Valentine’s people, our anniversary is on the 12th.
Midnight Snack ~ List 10 things you LOVE about your life right now.

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. Top:  Tasha, Grandpa Olsen, Grandma Olsen, Abby (?) Shandra, Natalie, Mickel, LaurieJo Bottom: Stephanie, Jan, Casey, Grandpa, Doug, Grandma, David, Ben, Justin Dennis, Barbara, Kim, Jody, Alicia Kalel Birthday:  Covid is still a constant threat, and I'm still working from home.  However, we did feel safe in having a family-only party for Kalel's birthday.  There is a new place here in town called Half  Axed.  We left Little Miss with Joey because we felt it would be just a little too dangerous for her and went to try our hand at axe-throwing. 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
