Summer Is Winding Down

Summer is winding down. I know because we actually bought school supplies!! We enjoyed watching Ryker one day and took him on a walk down to a new little park in our neighborhood.

Because I don't like three kids talking to me at once, asking me if they can have things, I took them one at a time to Walmart to buy school supplies. When they asked why, I just said, "So I don't get irritated." Worked like a charm.

Summer means swimming, so we tried to fit in a few water days. I took the kids to the Aquatic Center one day.

On Friday, we got Kory and Austin's little family to come to Rexburg Rapids. Because it was a little cooler than it has been, it wasn't too crowded. The kids had so much fun we stayed until it closed at 8:00 p.m. It was a fun day and we took baby Andy into the lazy river and she liked it. Different parts of the park were closed three times because of fecal matter in the pool. OOoooh! It was kind of funny but I could tell the workers and managers were getting really irritated. Finally, the manager came around asking each person at the park if they had babies without liners on. Good times!

We heard from Elder Kunz today and it sounds like his first week in Michigan has been great. I'm so glad he's liking the work and the elders that he works with.

April 2023

April 2023 On April 1 and 2 we chilled and watched General Conference. On the first, we got a new cat to replace Todd. This cat’s name is Taco, she is a girl, and she’s a tortoiseshell calico. She and Binx have taken quite a while to warm up to each other, but I think we’ll get there. She is cuddly like Todd, so we all like that. On April 4 I watched Season 3 of The Mandalorian with my dad. On the 5 th , Kory and I took Austin and Leah to the Bee’s Knees for a birthday dinner. They have really great food there and it was fun to visit. On April 6, we had BYUI Graduation. It was fun to be there, since I’ve missed the past year due to my cancer. On the 7 th , Kory, me, and Caleb babysat for Austin and Leah. It was fun putting the kids to bed and singing with them. Stevie loves the song “Goodbye Yellow Brick Road,” so we sang that a bunch. On April 8, Kory and I went on a little date. We drove up to Driggs and had dinner at O’ Rourkes and then stopped and visited with m...

Pie Face

Chloe had her tenth birthday and she asked for the game Pie Face. Yep, you've seen it. The one where everyone takes turns getting whipped cream in the face. Here are some precious moments. Chloe also got a little fort-making kit for her birthday, so we've had these structures in the family room for a few weeks now.

January/February 2023

January 2023 On January 3 we helped Caleb move back into his apartment on campus and took Phoebe to Fuji for her birthday dinner. On the 7 th , we went to Austin and Leah’s and had some delicious Olive Garden takeout and watched some of Matilda the Musical. On January 12, we went through the Rexburg temple with my niece Maddie. On January 14 th , I went to a baby shower for my niece Kami. She is the first grandchild to have a baby, so this will be my parents first great-grandchild. On the 27 th , we had a new addition to our household. That afternoon, Phoebe asked me if there was any way we could consider getting another cat. Her friend had to move and wouldn’t be able to take the cat to the new location. For some reason, I agreed, and she picked him up that afternoon. He’s an orange cat, and was originally named Scar, but our girls named him Todd after the Fox and the Hound . Binx was NOT happy at the new family member. He hissed and growled at Todd, who didn’t seem overly c...
