Barmitzva

Today was chill. I slept in and then took a nap. The makeup wasn't until 5. It was in park city for a barmitzva. They put alot.of money into the party. It was fancy. And with what I was getting paid they really put some money into it. They paid dancers from l.a to keep the dance party going with a d.j it was a crazy party for a 13 year old.

Kingdom ball

Racel I am so glad you had a good time camping. So much fun. We had a nice day all. We worked hard but the ball was a lot of fun.
Dad worked on the air conditioning and a hose busted so he will have to fix that.  Robin I hope your makeup was fun. Kamas was a busy place today. Love mom

Happy Birthday Dad!!

I hope that you had a good day Dad, Happy Birthday.  We had a fun camping trip.  Randy and Terry came with us and it was a really nice time.  Friday after Casey came home we had a quick dinner then went to Randy's then headed up the canyon.  We found a campground with a open spot near tonys grove.  It was kind of close to the road but it was a great spot and the kids loved it.  We roasted hot dogs and marshmallows and it was fun.  We got up in the morning and went to minnetonka cave.  We had to wait an hour to get in and Oliver almost fell asleep.  Ruthie did fall asleep in the cave and was out for the whole thing.  The boys loved it and it was a lot of fun.  Oliver got to hold the pointer for the tour guide and he liked that.  Oliver got tired at the end and was ready to leave.  We had a late lunch at the north shore.  Randy and Terry left to look at a house in Montpelier and went went swimming at Bear Lake.  Isaac and Ruth bought body board at the place we ate and Oliver got a bucket and some shovels.  They had a lot of fun swimming and it was a really great afternoon.  I hope that they kingdom ball was fun and that your makeup went well Robin.

Love

Isaac fell in the river shortly after this photo was taken

 

Friday

Today was good. I am tired so I just kept it chill. I'm so glad its friday, it was a long week. I hope everyone has a good weekend

Robin

Safe and sound

We made it to kamas. We had dinner in park city. Traffic was bad so we went through warship to go to kamas. It was a pretty drive. We are staying two nights. Good luck camping and robin have fun doing make up. Love mom

Thursday

It was nice to get back to work.  Everyone is so supportive of me going to ATP.  It is just amazing.  We met up with Robin tonight and went to Cubby's for dinner.  It was by Pizza Studio and guess what Pizza Studio went out of business.  Tomorrow is national Smore's day.  I thought that would be an interesting fact.  We are headed up to Karen's place tomorrow night for the Kingdom Ball.  I did buy a puzzle to do on her new table.  We went out to help Julie but she was stressed so we only stayed an hour and then went goofing around.  I hope that Oliver likes his grown up material for his pillowcase.  I bought two kinds so he could decide which one he likes.  Everyone have a great weekend.  Good luck Robin on your make up.  That is neat you are doing that.  Rachel have fun camping.  I bet it will be weird not to have to prepare a lesson.  LOVE YOU GUYS MOM

Thursday

Good job on the free lunches this week Karen, that sounds fun.  Good job getting fabric Mom and Robin.  The kids will love their new pillows.  Today was the last day of summer reading and Isaac was able to complete all of level 7 so when school starts he will start on level 8.  I think it has been good to do this summer and puts him ahead when school starts.  They let all the kids get a prize from the treasure box and they loved it.  I met Casey at the bank after that and we ran through some numbers with the lady and we are going to move forward.  She is going to run our credit and get us pre approved.  The Tandoori Oven is just across the street so we went their for lunch.  It tasted so good, it was amazing.  Casey bought us doughnuts also which was fun.  I took the kids to the splash park in the afternoon.  It has been on my list of things to do and we haven't been all summer.  It was really hot and half of the splash pad was closed but the kids said it was fun.  We came home and made snow cones.  After dinner Casey mowed the lawn and Imogen came over to play.  The kids are all tired so we got them to bed on time.  I am going to work out again tomorrow morning.  I am sore so I hope that it goes ok.  Love you guys.

Love

Thursday

I am so glad that tomorrow is Friday. My day was good. I did get pulled into a meeting today, but it wasn't too bad because I got free lunch out of it. I don't have anything exciting to report so I will sign off. Have a great Friday everyone. Bye

Wednesday

Today was good. I'm glad we are closer to the weekend. Work was busy as usual but nothing exciting. I came home and made brownies and wanted to just play with photoshop for a bit so I worked on a photo I took on my way home from Christmas at Karen's house. Have a good one

Robin

Back to work

Well I finished the first part of my class. I don't go back now until the 1st part of September.  I have lots of home work and work on my project but I go back to work now.  Karen congratulations on being the top seller.  That is pretty amazing.  Rachel, I am glad you got to work out.  That is good for you.  Robin it was nice to talk with you tonight.  We decided that Friday before Boondocks we should drive out to the district to school shop.  They have everything right there and it is fun.  Maybe hit the zoo in the morning and then go shopping and go to Draper right from the district.  It will be nice to go back to work.  It was a nice break but intense.  I was thinking of going to a laser show for dad's birthday on Saturday.  Me and Robin are going to go and help Julie for a little while tomorrow after work.  Get it done for her.  Everyone have a great Thursday.  I am looking forward to the Kingdom Ball.  We are going to Kamas after work on Friday.  LOVE MOM

Wednesday

Today was pretty good.  I got everyone up and we went to the indoor soccer area to workout.  Stephanie and her kids were their and it was a lot of fun.  I am not in shape but it was good to move.  The kids were tired from the late night so just had a low key day.  We read books and made bracelets.  This evening we just had a night at home.  Casey worked on fixing the canoe and we sat on the deck reading books and playing video games.  It was nice.  Love you guys.

Ruthie woke up early and came and laid with us and fell back asleep.  She said she was hot and then she cover her top half with a blanket.  It was cute.

Wednesday

My day was good. We had our luncheon today with the graco bosses. It was cafe rio. It tasted good. The meeting went good as well. Our sales increased more than anyone else in our division so that is good. I hope that everyone had a great day. Bye

Tuesday

Today was good.  The kids were in a better mood today so it went smoother.  We just played at home this morning.  Casey called on his lunch and we met him at the DI and then went to Sam's club for lunch/snack.  When Casey came home we had a quick dinner and then picked up Leona and headed to Clifton.  Leona was bored in her room so she sat outside for 3 hours.  We had a good time in Clifton.  The kids liked the baby goats.  They played hide and seek which was fun.  We came home late and the kids are tired.  I am meeting Stephanie tomorrow morning to work out and the kids are going to play together.  I think it should be fun.  Love you guys.

Should be Friday

I am with Robin this is a long week.  Tomorrow will be the last day I have to get up early so that is keeping me going.  I am so not a morning person.  I have been learning a lot.  It just seems weird to be with all these doctors and directors.  I was feeling like I shouldn't be there but then I thought they knew what I was when I signed up and could have said no so I felt better after that.  We watched the Mummy tonight and I even stayed awake.  We had Café Rio for lunch and it was good.  Everyone have a great hump day.  I wish the smoke would go away.  My rash is looking so much better.  I think it is gone.  Hopefully it will stay that way.  LOVE MOM

Tuesday

Well if I had to sum my day in one word it would be meetings. I had a lot of them today. It makes for a kind of long day but I made it thru. My day was good all in all. Tomorrow there is a bigwig from graco is coming, so we get free lunch from cafe rio. They are also going to start pouring the concert for the foundation to the add on tomorrow. That is fun. I hope everyone has a great Wednesday tomorrow. Bye

Too too tuesday

Today was alright I didn't want to work today but I still went. I didn't do much tonight I just relaxed. I was going to see but I felt tired. I'm glad your class is fun mom. Hope everyone is doing well

Robin

Class

I got up so early yesterday I feel asleep and never work back up when I got home.  That was nice.  Two more days of class and then I am back to normal for one month. The class is four months.  Three days each month.  It was nice to just sit and listen to someone talk.  They had lots of good food so that was fun.  The Disney store is right by where I got to class so I am going to go there and look around.  I thought that would be fun to see what they have.  Have a nice day.  LOVE MOM

Monday Monday

Today was a normal good day.  This morning we took Leona to the bank and then Walmart.  She doesn't like Walmart so we are going to try Lee's next time.  The boys got their allowance today and their is a new game Captain Toad and Isaac bought it.  They were so excited about it.  It was a little harder than he was thinking but he eventually got the hang of it.  After we dropped Leona home I needed to go grocery shopping so we went to Lee's.  We just spent the rest of the afternoon at home.  Isaac played his new game and had fun.  He did get a bloody nose, I am not sure why.  After dinner we went to Lowes to get a part to fix the hose faucet outside.  One of the tent poles has a crack in it so we went to Al's to see if they had a replacement but they didn't.  It feels like it should be the end of the week instead of Monday, it is weird.

Love
Rachel

Monday

Well today just flew by for me. Usually Mondays drag but today it didn't. It was even cazy at work. It didn't seem as hot today as it has been so that was really nice. I came home from work and just was lazy. I hope everyone had a great day. Robin, those are funny jokes. Bye

It's only monday

Today was good I think I'm starting to make a dent in work. Then I came home and finished my stencils I was working on. I took a nap and it felt amazing. I may not sleep tonight but I felt tired. Have a good night

Robin

Ditto

I had a lazy day also. I slept in and took a nap. I made BBQ chicken and rice-a-roni. It tasted really good. I haven't made it in a while. I hope that everyone has a great week. Bye

I'm Free

We did not sleep in today which is unfortunate.  I was getting released so I got everyone up and we were at church by 8 am.  They called good people to be in the new presidency so I don't think it will be a hard transition at all.  We went to Young Women's for the last time today and now we are done.  The kids did really well at church.  Oliver told his teachers about crashing so I had to explain it to them, he is cute.  Casey worked today and we just hung out at home.  We painted and played in the backyard.  Isaac and Oliver had some reeds in the boat and lost them in the crash so we went to a nature park after dinner to get some new ones.  Ruthie didn't love hiking this weekend but she loved hiking their, she was running all over the place.  Oliver fell asleep in the car and was out the whole time.  Casey's foot was hurting so he sat with Oliver.  I don't have much else going on, love you guys.

She was dancing on the deck

Lazy day

I slept in today.  I had a hard time going to sleep (I had a coke at dinner).  We called grandma and she didn't answer so we went to Sam's and got drugs and then she finally answered and had been asleep.  Gary said she wasn't very coherent.  She didn't want us to come and visit so we just came home and were lazy.  It felt so nice.  I am nervous for tomorrow.  I hope the class goes OK.  I have to be there at 7:30 but the class doesn't start until 8:00 so that gives me some wiggle room.  Have a nice Monday.  It sure was smoky here today.  LOVE MOM

Sleepy sunday

I slept in today which is nice. Then I did a batch of laundry. I am doing makeup on Saturday they want airbrush tattoos so I have been working in stencils all night. I thankfully have my vinyl cutter so I just have to set up.the files and it cuts out my stencils for me . I also took a nap so I probably won't sleep. Lol have a good night
