Trench Warrior !!

Yup !   That's our Tagg !  Love it when he gets the Quarterback :) 

Such an exciting game last Friday Night at Bountiful High School.  Morgan, the defending 3A champions, and Bountiful, the defending 5 A champions met up.  
It was a great exciting game, that came down to the last seconds.
Morgan won 21 to 13
Tagg had an EXCELLENT game, and came away with the Trench Warrior Award from Morgan Sports Network.  He has the respect of his team mates and the coaches, that's for sure.

Beautiful evening for some baseball at the 4th Street Complex on Wall Avenue in Ogden.  Payson's Venom competition team played Dominicana.  They lost, but it baseball, so it was fun !

New Car............and other "stuff"

We bought a new 2025 Toyota Camry XSE
It's pretty complicated for a couple of old fogies. 

 

Mark and Dax hiked the "M"

We've had a "few" massive sunflowers

I haven't done dill pickles since 2021, but here we are ! 
Cucumbers are producing.  I'm up to 11 quarts so far, and hope to do more. 

Seems like there is always a sprinkler to fix :(

I bought 3 bushels of tomatoes from Guy Rose, and got 48 quarts of tomato juice.  So appreciative that mom came to help me cut them up. 

We still have a mouse.............. Called the Pest Control guy AGAIN ! 

Guess who won the $500 Browning gift bag at the football game on the 29th?
Yup - that would be ME :)

He is loving it ! 

Also loves to go to the Idea Museum, and loves to create things. 

Too hot !! 

A few days after his first days back at school, and he's sick.  That's what happens unfortunately

Manda, Bren and Cash traveled North to Cottonwood, and stayed over night in an air bnb.  

They had a great time.

Life during August for the Rich Family

Thatcher and Tagg went back to school. Treyson quit his job with Fairway Glass, and is working with Roger.  Zac helps out when needed.  I tried to help mow River Cove one day, and jacked up my knee, worse than it was before, so I'm no help.  This is the LAST YEAR !!  It's been good and great to work with the grandkids.........but all good things must come to an end.  

Thatcher bought himself an electric bike that looks like a cool motorcycle.  He loves to ride it, and does wear his helmet, but I worry, none the less. 

Zac hiked Kings Peak on the spur of the moment with Stan Durrant and T.J. Gale.

He sure loves to hike. 

 

Zac and CJ celebrated their 22nd wedding anniversary.  My how time flies.

Game Time - Football :)

#46, front and center.  Thatcher's first game went great.  He played both ways, and multiple positions.  It was fun to watch, and that boy's smile?  We never get tired of it :)

Tagg #50 - played nose guard this first game because the kid who usually plays that position recently had his appendix removed.  Hope to be back in his regular position soon.  Morgan lost, but played hard.  Ridgeline was pretty tough.  Mark and Carried came up to support Tagg, and we really appreciated that.  Tagg is one of the team captains.  He has worked hard, and really deserved it.
