Happy Birthday To Me

It's not every day that you turn 60 it's time to have some fun. Dave already treated me to Raising Caines on the way home from Lake Havasu. I don't want to cook, clean, or do laundry. Hopefully, my family will give me that one birthday wish.

Looks very relaxing

Why am I the one taking the picture and not snuggling.

Could be I don't let Piper up on the couch.

YUM!!

My favorite Galaxy Cookies from Crumble.

Dave & Ryder bought the cake.

Ruston & Ryder cutting the cake.

Not until i blew out the candle.

Can't have 60 candles since it could then be a waxed covered cake.

YUCK!!

Surprise!!

My amazing team did a great job spoiling me.

They did an awesome job.

Not sure what 60 is supposed to feel like. One minute I feel like 80 and then 20. This decade is going to be rough if it doesn't make up it's mind. I guess that I had better say buckled up the ride could be a little rough. But so worth it!!

Road Trip - Lake Havasu

It's time for a weekend getaway without the kids. We're headed to Lake Havasu to enjoy the heat, relax, and explore. Dave has been wanting to go back after a quick trip with Ryder to pick up another car. I have never been and I would like to see the London Bridge.

Trafalgar Square

It's a whole lot less crowded than the orginal.

We need food!

There it is!

The London Bridge

Oops! I have my bridges mixed up.

I was thinking Tower Bridge.

True story: The buyer also had the bridges mixed up. Imagine his suprise when 

it arrived. 

Loved the ducks 

The ducklings following their mama.

Walking underneath.

You can't do that in London.

Offical!!

Found the place we

were looking for. It's lunchtime.

Amazing hamburgers and not crowded.

Time for thrifting.

We even found an old Ragady Andy & Ann dolls.

Too expensive.

Live Auction / Antique Store

Plus doll museum

A whole lot of creepy dolls.

This looks tropical

Nope!

A public beach on the lake.

Catching some sun.

Once again no crowds.

My favorite lunch

Early birthday present.

It was a fun trip not much relaxing. Instead a whole lot of exploring. I was told the reason not large crowds. The snowbirds have headed North due to the heat. Spring Break was 2 weeks ago.

 

Crazy Weekends

It's the weekend and once again we are busy. Rylee is hosting a baby shower in the backyard all hands on deck.

My job

wrapping the floppy bunny rocker.

This is a test of my wrapping skills that are not best with normal gifts.

Done!!

It doesn't look to bad. If I do say so myself.

I am always open to lessons.

While the party is in full swing

We took the crazy dogs to the desert to play.

Can you spot the popcorn?

Ranger couldn't find it. Indy helped him out and ate it herself.

Side Note

Piper got a cute haircut with a new groomer

at the new Petco in town.

This will definitley reduce the shedding.

 She love toys.

Even ones that don't belong to her.

Sorry Indy & Ranger you will need to come back to play with them.

Mom's Random Stories Issue #3

Here's the latest addition of stories from my phone.

Her name is Rhonda.

She has been slacking off lately in the cleaning department.

She has a new obsession that is beginning to worry me.

Tormenting Piper & Dexter!!

Kennel time until her work is done. However, she followed

them and stood guard. Not sure but  think I heard a few evil giggle.

Rhonda is now banned from the house. Robots can be scary just ask Ranger.

Long Earred Bunny Rocker

So cute what baby could resist taking a ride.

A little surgery needed and it will be good as new.

Doctor Mom to the rescue.

Update from Logan.

Is that snow?

Yep!! In April.

Smoke Detectors

What do you do when it starts as a chirp and

less than 5 minutes they all start singing.

The dogs are hiding again. Quick check that the house isn't on fire. 

I'm searching for 9 volt batteries. Found them!!

All is quiet again.

Round 2 a few hours later.

We are not on fire! Thank goodness!!

The dogs are hiding again and Dave is taking them all down.

All down with the batteries removed.

They are either dirty or ready to be replaced.

Too late tonight this is a job for tomorrow.

We are going to enjoy the quiet. My ears are still ringing.

Piper

She is in desperate need of a haircut. One minor hiccup she needs

vaccinations to get one.

She was such a good girl and loved all the treats.

Time for those pesky shots and she started to wiggle.

It was a fun 15 minutes that all we could do is sit and watch.

DONE!

Oh the memories that can resurface when you look at your pictures. Stay tuned for another chapter.

Motorcycle Ride

Time for a weekend ride on the motorcycles.  Let's head towards Toquerville.

We made it!

Quick picture before getting lunch.

Fun statue

Fill up on tank.

Time to fill up the other tank.

Yummy lunch in LaVerkin.

Next stop home.

It was fun to get out and enjoy the sunshine. I definitely need to work on my balance and feeling confident that I won't fly off the back. Bless Dave he has patience with me being wobbly. 

It maybe time for another ride.

 

Weekend Full of Adventures

Warning!! Fun weekend ahead.... Grandma JeanAnn & I are finally making it to Gentri here in St. George.

Great seats

for their new Easter show.

I do believe this concert beats

their Christmas show hands down.

Rylee & Ruston 

Family lunch in Laverkin.

Ruston needs to run faster or set the timer for a few additional seconds.

Love seeing all the smiling faces.

Why do the weekends seem so short and the work weeks seem much longer. Everyone loves the weekend. I'm glad that we can still find time to some fun.

Updates From Logan

Time for an update from up North.

She is getting mail from Grease Monkey

in Logan and none from home.

WooHoo!!

She has officially received diploma

from Btech.

Meal prepping

I can't wait for her to make it for me.

Sending a missing you

Ruston's sitting in her chair.

She looks happy and enjoying her life in Logan. We miss her and love seeing her new adventures.
