catching up

Just hanging with Coco

Grandpa and Grandma with Coco

 Dan had a little dinner gathering with some friends from High School.  These were our appetizers:  Caprese and fruit kabobs.

Our yard has had problems this year.  We got it's haircut and pipes fixed.

Riley and Shelby got to be a part of the whole process

A little side trip to the Operating Room.  They spent about 20 stressed filled minutes deciding whether or not to take her by C-section.  Luckily, we waited for about 2 more hours of Kassidy pushing to get her here.

Hanging out with Shelby

Shelby and I took Izzy and LuLu for a walk up to Bountiful Boulevard and over to 4th East.  There were some Llamas on the way.  LuLu wouldn't go near them, but Izzy wasn't afraid!

We were tending Izzy and threw the ball up on the couch.  she chased it, then stopped halfway cuz she knew she shouldn't be up there.

Shelby and I have been playing bananagrams lately.  We organized all of the tiles and took this lovely pic,

Shelby's mission Call - March 29th

Shelby and "the envelope."

Tad, Janna Banana, Kass (and Coco) and Drew

Trevor and Tad

Gary and Cherrie Leavitt (our Hosts)

Riley was there too.  (Dan was there behind the camera all night)

Brandon and Gma Jenson were there too.

We bought a frame before we opened her call.  She had it in the frame within minutes.

Shelby received her mission call on Wed, but Dan and the boys couldn't get down to St. George until Friday.  I went down early and spent the two days with her as if she were waiting for a baby to come.  It was a very anxious 2 days, but finally at about 11pm on Friday night she got to open it....Arizona, Scottsdale Mission - Spanish speaking.  She reports to the Mexico City MTC on August 7, 2013.  Shelby is amazing!!!

Palm Springs, 2013

This was so long ago that I have no idea who played.  I am sure  it was exciting!  I do remember an old man passing out from the heat a couple of rows in front of me.

Tommy Haas.  He lost this match badly, but I felt he needed me to stay and cheer for him.

Jill Gilmore, Janna Banana and Ann Bonar.

So, Jill, Ann and I started going to the Pacific Life Open (now the BNP Paribas Open) about 8 or 9 years ago.  I have taken the last 2 years off, but Ann and Jill have gone every year.  I invited myself along again this year.  We have so much fun.  Mostly laughing at each other.  We are rapidly turning into little old nuerotic ladies.

Orlando, 2013

Dan, Trevor, Tad and I went to the NADA Convention in Orlando, Florida from Feb 8th - Feb 12th.  Grandma Mac, Mike, Terri and Paul were there also.  Riley and Lenny drove up from Key West.  We stayed at the Marriott Cypress Harbour vacation village.  We had a great time!

Mike was the nominee from Utah as the Time Dealer of the Year.

The kids all went to Universal Studios on Saturday while Dan and I went to the Convention.  Saturday night we went and saw Lifehouse in concert.

Lifehouse

Trevor in Spongebob's house.

Who lives in a pineapple under the sea?

Lou volunteered to be the Granny in the production of "Disaster."  It turned out to be a Disaster.  We broke the ride.  We went to MIB right after.  It broke.  Then we went to the live show of Fear Factor and their first stunt and the microphone broke.   Not a great way to start the day

The worst part of breaking the ride was that we didn't get to see the movie Lou made!

Waiting for Dan and Trevor.  Apparently Riley and Lenny are having more fun than Tad!

Dan and the boys went home on Wed.  On Tuesday night, Riley, Lenny and I drove down to his friend Miss Melanie's house in Boca Raton.  We went to breakfast with her and then got to Key West around 3pm on Wednesday.

Riley and I rode around the island on their bikes all day Thursday.

Lenny outside their house.

The 3 of us went to our favorite restaurant,  Cafe Sole'  for Valentines Day.  This is my arugula salad. 

Riley's portabella mushroom soup.

The 3 of us with our entrees.

My Swan shaped leftovers.

We got the dessert sampler:)

Cousins bowling

The reason I don't really like to blog very much is that I am a sucky photographer!  We had a great time bowling at the "cousins bowling outing."  You will have to ask Erika for the pics she was taking.  Funny how she is the only one in focus in my pictures...
