Another Crazy Week

What do you do in your spare time? I take random pictures to remind me of the craziness that is going on around me.

Pieces of armor

You never know what you will find at a car show.

Memories of all full suits of armor in London.

Where are you Ryder?

In the chaos of the UT Tech campus.

It's raining again.

This time I was quick to get my plants out

for a shower.

Santa Clara Car Show

I can't keep up with this man.

He is moving fast through all the cars.

However, he can always talk details of what was there.

Rylee

End of summer party with friends.

The view was amazing.

Rice Krispie Treats

Courtesy of TikTok hack in the oven.

Followed the directions. They looked really good.

Were a little gooey right out of the oven.

Quickly turned hard and extremely crunchy.

A fun week to look back on. I have decided I can't make Rice Krispie Treats hack or not.  Let the craziness coming.

 

The Big 18!!

Ryder is officially an adult!! 

One handsome guy

Cookies for breakfast

They were a little wonky but good enough that he ate 

all that was on the plate.

How do you spend the day?

Going to Las Vegas to race cars with Kasen.

A little competitive

A couple of laps in

the rain & wind picked up.

Inside to play video games

until the rain stops.

The rain wasn't going to stop anytime soon.

Headed to lunch!!

BBQ joint in a strip mall under an I15 overpass.

Crazy decor

Yummy food

Ending our day.

Included looking at cars.

Looking back to 2007 and wondering if this tiny baby would ever grow up. Here we are and we did survive and thrived. Can't wait to see what awaits him over the next 10 years.

Remembering 9/11

I love the patriotism that St. George and Washington County shows each year for the 4th of July and again for Patriots Day.

Good crowd 

Great speaker & musical numbers

Field of Heros

Flag retirement ceremony

The ashes will be buried

at Tonaquint Cemetary

Love the sunset over the part.

Liberty Village

Groundbreaking for new building.

After a brief ceremony

We walked through the rows of flags.

Replica of the Liberty Bell

Gorgeous day

This has been a great couple of days of remembering our heros, listening to amazing speakers, and spending time with family.

Until next year!

 

Hello September!

September is starting at full steam ahead. 

Employee of the Month

That's right the most shocking staff meeting

when Lizzy called my name for September Employee of the Month.

Even more shocking the cheering and a few taunts about standing up.

Dexter catching a quick nap

on Reganne's lap before she leaves.

He looks so peaceful.

What is that?

We haven't seen rain in months.

Still raining!!

Love it and so do my plants.

Our nest is slowly becoming empty. However, life doesn't seem to be slowing down any time soon. The weather is acting crazy so you never know what is going to happen next.

August Untold Stories

Amazing what you find when looking at your photos either looking for that one know is somewhere or cleaning random photos off your phone.

Ruston's dental checkup

Rylee sent us an update. He survived!!

12 year old Rylee setup this reminder up on my phone.

10 years later.

We are celebrating with a Pupachino??

Happy 18th Birthday Dexter.

Fun photo bomb!!

Rylee & Sarah

Fun to have mutual friends.

SkyWest Retirees

We had a fun dinner and sharing memories.

Still trying to figure out how to do this everyday.

Maybe I need to focus on getting those 8 hours.

Freshly groomed

with a Swiffer for a tail.

Maybe I can teach him how to dust for me.

Rylee's photo shoot in Zions

She always takes great pictures.

August was a busy, life changing month. The best part is I have the pictures to prove our many adventures. Looking forward to September and more pictures.

Look Who Came to Visit

Reganne came home for a quick visit just 2 weeks after our quick trip to see her. Who is counting not me!! I am glad she found time to come down for another quick visit.

A quick sniff

Reganne!!

I have missed you so much. Plus a hug ot two.

If only she could talk. 

I am sure she would say something like that.

Dog kennel rather small.

We found this while thrifting.

Then sent a picture to Rylee if this would work for Indy.

No reply.

Family Dinner

@ Red Lobster

Reganne's choice and Ryder's first time trying crab legs.

Feedback too much work!!

Ava & Destiny

We love spending time with them.

She had to sit by me and started redecorating with napkins.

Dessert

Ice cream from Coldstone.

We had a great time catching up during this visit. She also had plans with friends. We had to make the most of our time together. Her next trip down will be her birthday weekend.  That is a month away. Phone calls will have to do until then.

Quick Trip to Logan

It's another busy weekend for us. We are heading north for Gracie MacPherson's mission farewell on Sunday. Let's make the trip a little longer and visit Reganne in Logan. We had to make one stop first to pickup Grandma JeanAnn. We are ready to have some fun.

Lunch at HuHut

This was one of Reganne's favorite places to eat at home.

Until the closed.

It was as yummy as I remembered.

Love to watch these guys constantly moving

around and cooking the food to perfection.

Next stop was at Winco to show me where she finds awesome deals. I am always up for a good deal.

Ryder sent her a gift.

A stuffed Dexter since the real one has to stay home.

Of course Dad turned into a softy and bought her groceries for the month.

Looks just like him!!

Gracie's farewell luncheon.

She gave an awesom talk.

It was a fun weekend trip spending time with family is always the best. The drive up and back not so much. I do get time to catch up on my reading so not nag Dave about his speeding.
