Grandma's Bridge












My grandma's backyard is amazing. She has a creek that runs right through it and it's shaded and wooded and is just, for lack of a better word, amazing. All of us seem to come to this place and take pictures on the bridge. This past Sunday I decided it was time to go and pay her and the bridge a visit.

I love my grandma. She is in her 80's and still remembers everyone and everything. In fact, she is the glue that keeps us all together. If we want to know what's going on in the family, we visit grandma for an update.

We had such a great visit, we looked at old photo albums and laughed and reminisced. We love you Grandma. We'll try and be better at visiting.

Happiness

Today has been such a beautiful day it always makes me have the cleaning itch. So, while cleaning out a drawer I came across this saying, it used to be so true and still is. I love when Wayne, and the boys come home from work and school. Thought I'd share it with my friends, here it is:

There is no greater happiness for a man than approaching a door at the end of the day knowing someone on the other side of that door is waiting for the sound of his footsteps.

Sometimes those footsteps didn't come fast enough, if you know what I mean.

A Fun and Cold Night of Camping


Wayne, Stetson and Caleb went with the scouts this past weekend to Crystal Hot Springs...brrr!!! Not sure why they seem to enjoy these type of cold activities, but they had a great time. Thank heavens for a great scout master with a few tricks to keep them warm with heated water bottles. They swam, had a camp fire, and slept fairly well...still sounds cold to me.

Still Smiling...

Well, Bridger didn't win his election. He has a great atttitude and will be just fine. I'm proud of him for trying. Better to have tried and failed, then never to have tried at all. I love you Bridger, we'll get'em next time.

Running for Student Body Office

He's running for Student Body Vice President Service. Here's a couple of the posters we made.
This is Bridger with Tonya, one of the new students showing her support for her favorite candidate.




Look how good this sandwich looks, Service with a smile. And good food too, SpankyS in Bountiful if you're looking for a great meal.




He's quite nervous, but has a great attitude. Please keep him in your thoughts and prayers. We're hoping for a win! Either way, it's a great experience for him to run.

Remember: VOTE for Bridger!

A Great Day for Ice Fishin

It was such a beautiful day yesterday, Wayne and the boys decided to take advantage and head to Jordanell for a little ice fishing, I however went shopping:) Caleb made a little "fish jail" for them to wait until they took their catch home.
They are always looking for wildlife in their travels. This moose was a welcome site.

One happy boy.

Bridger trying to stay warm, this is why I choose to go to the mall instead. This makes us all happy.

"Bug Tag"

How this works...write down 10 things that bug you and 10 people you tag...

Not in any particular order, mind you...

1. Finish cleaning up the kitchen and then someone decides their still hungry.
2. Washing my car, and finding out the weather man was wrong, and it rains.
3. Going to the store for an item, and getting home without the item, could be an age thing.
4. Running a brand new pair of nylons.
5. Mean people, and terrible customer service.
6. Going to the store and forgetting the discount coupon that is sitting on the table at home, age again.
7. My mail carrier never shuts my mailbox and our mail gets soaked all the time.
8. Thinking I turned my electric blanket on, climbing into bed and realizing it was Wayne's side.
9. Reading the obituaries and them not listing the reason the person is in there, I want to know.
10. Wondering why I have so many mismatched socks when they go in the was as pairs.


The 10 people I tag are the next 10 people who read this blog, make sure you comment so I know where to follow you.
