Happy Anniversary !

Three years ago today, Landon and Kacey started their own forever family.  Who would have thought they would begin their 4th year as husband and wife in the Phillipines? 
Take care, we love you guys :)

Big Mess

They are redoing the Questar line in front of our house. This is what I came home to at lunch today.......the phone line was accidentally cut because it was mis-marked, so no internet! Don't know how I will survive:-)

Good Life

At the property today - Thatch loves the new swing :)

Payson - what a sweetie !!  Miss him so much.....  He is GROWING, and his hair is getting so long.  He is always smiling and happy when we see him on the FACETIME, although I'm sure he has his moments.  Here he is in their new home - one shoe and and one shoe off :)  I just want to squeeze him !

Miss Piggy and the cowboy........ Neither one really like this (haha) - except mom maybe :)


Billy doesn't grunt as much, and isn't as scary as Miss Piggy

Just before I grabbed him...............as he was going to grab the daily egg collection


Working at Grandpa D's - spreading gravel on the shoulders of the road.  Little boys are so much help !




Soccer time at Mtn. Green this morning.  Watching Treyson.  It was finally a WARM Saturday

Traveling Back

 I don't know why I'm such a "have to know the details" person.  But anyway, Landon and Kacey and Payson are traveling home from Boracay to Bacolod on their Monday, which will be OUR tonight while we sleep.

To get to Boracay, they flew from Bacolod to Manila (to finish up things with their visas), and then from Manila to Caticlan (the launching point for ferries to Boracay Island).


To get back to Bacolod, they will be going a cheaper route.  They will take the ferry back to Caticlan, then board a bus to cross the island of Panay to the main town of Iloilo (see map above). This will take anywhere from 4 to 6 hours.  

Then they will board a bigger ferry, to take them from Panay Island to Negros Island across the  Guimaras Strait, to their town of Bacolod. This will take about an hour.




I know they will be updating their blog, but here are a few pictures they have shared on facebook the past few days. 


On Boracay Island
Can you believe the blue water?
Not to mention the sweet baby :)  Miss you buddy


Right out their hotel door?

Visitors

The Cowboy Bunny came to visit me at work on Thursday !


He brought along his little brother :)
They raided my sucker drawer of course

He just belly laughed and laughed, as I pretended to get a taste of his sucker.  I sure love visits at work !

Back to work....



As many of you know, Roger has been out of work since December, when Hostess shut their doors.   Over the past four months we had heard that U S Bakery had purchased the Salt Lake Hostess Bakery.  

Roger D. has gone to work for Franz Family Bakery as of this week.  He will be doing basically the same work he did in Ogden for Hostess, only on a smaller scale.  Franz will take over the bread and bun market that was left sorely lacking with Hostess shut their doors, and expect to have great growth here in Utah markets.

Look for FRANZ bread and also Sweetheart, Eddy's, Standish Farms, and Grandma Emilie's, coming to stores soon !

A little working Vaca.....





Landon and Kacey and Payson will be traveling this week.  Tomorrow they fly out to Manila, to finish up their visas.  They will stay there one day,  and then fly to Caticlan  and catch a ferry to the small island of Boracay.  Landon will be attending a conference of the Department of Labor on Friday and Saturday.  They will stay over Sunday, and then head back to Bacolod on Monday.  Hopefully by then their home will be ready to move into.  Yeah !!  Only one more week of the hotel life, which is getting pretty old at this point.

Saturday Soccer and Supper

Treyson  is in the back in blue - he enjoys soccer, but is not what you would call a "go getter" - he mainly hangs back, and defends when needed.
It was a cold blustery day



Grandma Gwen and Thatch - all bundled up, trying to stay warm

Mr.  Smiley

Taggarino - Soccer Player extraordinnaire

Grandma Shirlee, trying to keep Thatch happy


Treyson, getting ready to watch Tagg's game
Tagg has a different personality than Treyson - you had better stay OUT OF HIS WAY !


Later that night we all went to Red Robin for supper to celebrate Grandma Rich's birthday

Pictures aren't the best  - but here are Kayla, Taylor, and Autumn
Thatcher in his make-shift high chair

Treyson, Zac, and Tagg

J.P., Trapper, Megan and K.P.
Sorry I didn't get a picture of everyone - the other pictures didn't turn out very good at all.

Video for Payson



Payson loves animals.  This is for him.  Nothing too exciting, just another day in Farmer Rich's barnyard.  At about 3 minutes, the little goat does a spectacular jump :)  The motors you can hear in the background are Lori and Elwin's grandkids on motorcycles and 4-wheelers.

Take a look at this video below
(You will have to turn your head sideways)


Kacey says this is what happens everytime he goes out of the elevator

Here is a close up of the sweet people who love him

Kacey says,  " He is like a celebrity in this hotel all the workers love him and hold him and kiss his cheeks! He loves to go downstairs and go to them then never wants to come back to me and Landon!"



Nap time with Mom

And last but not least - We've got a screamer !!
