Impromptu Family Get Together

July is going to be a slower month.  Time for relaxing and enjoying family time.  This year no concert or fireworks at the stadium.  Instead a movie, late lunch, and watching more movies together at home.  Thanks to our great neighborhood they were soon blowing up the skies with multiple show going at the same time  The best part was no traffic and driving home.

Then BAM!! the craziness began again.  This time with a medical scare from Grandma.  She has is battling another back problem on the other side and higher up.  She got to take her first ambulance ride and didn't remember it.  After many phone calls we made the trip up North.  Grandma was doing a lot better by the time we arrived.

Way to much family.  Grandma needs a break.
We headed off to lunch and sent the kids with the Dads to the movie.  We headed back to the hospital.

An important note... I need take care of myself so that I don't shrink as well in the future.
Guess who is feeling much better?
The thumbs up and tongue out!!!


Grandma has amazing support.
It was great to see everyone and spend the day together.  I just wish that it was under healthier circumstances.  Thank goodness for modern medicine and technology we are all able to stay in touch and also give unlimited support to each other.

It was time for us to head home but not without a quick stop at Callie Poyfair's reception and saying hi quickly to we could make it home by midnight.

Yummy!!
Everyone was starving.  That meant dinner was a must and how about Denny's in Nephi?  We could eat and get gas at the same place.  This sandwich sounded so yummy on the menu last week that I decided it was a must tonight.  What a combo cheese, eggs, ham, bacon on a potato roll with maple butter.  All I could taste was the yucky American Cheese!!! There was a hint of sweet from the maple butter but not much else.  I would not recommend this to anyone.

We made it home by midnight and with the comforting feeling that all would okay. We got to see family if only for a short time.  Impromptu gatherings are the best.
