Odds and Ends from the past week

Meeting at the Courthouse - practicing Social Distancing
We are now locked down in the Courthouse (no outside entry from the public) - but are still there working, and helping the public through phone, email, and snailmail.
Treat from Janell's husband 
The Yard Master (and crew) have begun to MOW !!!
I fixed a great roast and potatoes in a NEAT old roaster pan that I got from Jenni.  
I enjoyed General Conference so much !!
I watched a little on the computer, and also "cast" my phone onto the TV.  Thank goodness for technology. 
We planted a row of peas in the garden in between conference sessions on Saturday. 
Found a picture of my Great Great Grandmother.
Mette Margrete Juulsdaughter Peterson
It was taken in Richville, prior to 1919 (when she died)
She was my Grandma Dickson's (Anona) maternal Grandmother.
She was born in Denmark in 1834
Fun MEME I saw.  I'm getting tired of it though - anyone else? 
A backpack for hiking !
Landon and Kacey and kids have been doing alot of bike riding lately with the kids. 
Cam and her friend - sure miss that girl.  
Another MEME, which is exactly what happened !  
We got new windows at the courthouse.  They started at 7:30 am and it was COLD!!  In the 30's when they started.  We were glad when the sun came up and warmed things up.  
Landon found Payson and Bright (by themselves) - writing a list of things to do. SO SWEET.
Here is Payson's list.
1. Don't whine
2. Be Nice
3. Listen to Mom and Dad
4. Help Bexlee and Brightyn when they need it
5. Sleep in room at night
6.  Be a good brother 
I think this is ALSO Payson's list.
Love the "Help old people", and I think MOM added "Don't be annoying"
Windows all done !!
Our chickens sure are different !
Look at the difference in the size of eggs.
Then there are just the WEIRD ones......
Yuck - whose old thumb is that !?!?! 
We've changed up the greenhouse, and cut it down in size.
Another fun MEME - Ya, this just about sums it up. 
The Yardmaster hard at work
He didn't want this picture taken :)
Treyson had just been for a ride around "the block"
The block is SOUTH on Hwy 66 to the Lane, then North on MVD to the "Y", then East on Young Street to State Street/Hwy 66, then SOUTH to home.  His dad ran along with him. 
Thatch is still doing gymnastics at home each day on ZOOM
We had a guy come and pull some poly pipe so that the watering of the trees at Grandpa's and Zac's could be done on the sprinkling system instead of by hand. 
You should see this kid do handsprings (front and back), and tucks, and fulls, and layouts, and gainers........ and a bunch of things that I don't even know what they are.  
Getting the burn pile ready to go. 
It was a nice day, but windy.  Alot of the farmers were burning their ditches. 
If the sun was shining, and the wind wasn't too bad, it was fairly pleasant in the sun.
These two got all of the toys back out of the shed, and a little water, and had a nice time.
We also got all of the little lights put up along side of the road to the Property, and also the grills and tables set back up under the bowery, and the kitchen/bathroom un-winterized. 
We roasted some hot dogs and had lunch. 
Smashing little voles/gophers.  They sure did a number on the lawns this past winter. 
I made JELLO JIGGLERS (Easter colors)  for all of the grandkids, and we took them down to West Haven for the kids.  Sure hope they liked them.  We stayed outside, and didn't get too close, but the kids kept creeping up on us........   We are planning a HUGE sleepover when this COVID junk is done.  Can't happen soon enough !!!
Brightyn showing off her blood blister that Bexlee "gave" her, and Pays and Bex showing their wooden eggs that the neighbor made and gave them.  
Also, Bexlee fell on the garage steps a few days ago, and hurt her mouth.  She was pretty proud to let Payson show it off.
 We sure miss our grandkids........  
And last but not least - Bright's list.  TOO CUTE
1.  Help everybody when when are sad
2. Make money
3. Help Everyone
4. Love Everyone
5. Do Math
6?
7. Smile Everytime
8. Make new friends

A little bit of EVERYTHING !

This is what a broken bicep looks like............. dang :(
About 4 years ago, Rog broke his right one getting wood in the Uintahs.  We didn't realize it until 2-3 months later - too late to fix it.  Last weekend, remember what we did?  Cut down the tree and haul it away?  Yup - there goes the other one.  At least we caught this one, and hopefully next week he will have surgery to repair.  Depending on the MRI's he may be having major shoulder surgery in conjunction with the bicep fix.  We'll know more on Monday after a visit with Dr. Harrison. 
Last night CJ stopped by with Tagg and Thatch while Zac and Treyson were at football.  She had just picked up a HUGE cabbage at Grandpa D's.  They were getting rid of the excess leaves.  Miss Piggy had a hey day !
Our little goats are warming up a little.  
Miss Piggy - oh she's a sweetie.  So ugly she's cute !  If you approach her gently, she'll let you scratch behind her ears.  
Grandpa and Grandma Ben stopped by also, and we hung out in the barnyard and driveway for a little bit, watching the kids. 
Thatch has taken to his STRIDER balance bike like a champ.  All I can say, is I'm glad they have a helmet !  I don't know if you want to take the time to load up and watch the 4 minute video below, but my heck, it's sure cute.  Boy can he go !

This is the cabbage from Grandpa D's garden  20 POUNDS !!!
Now for our Philippine Crew :)
Have you EVER seen such a cute mischevious smile?
LOVE THIS BOY (and miss him too :(
Landon and Kacey went on an awesome zip line, down and across a canyon.  We saw the video.  Looks like SO MUCH FUN !
Sweet Brightyn.  No, those aren't teeth, just sparkling gums :)
Kacey said he needed a step stool for his little truck too
Here is a cute pic with Yadi, thei new doggy.  Apparently he likes to chew on Brightyn's toes, which she DOES NOT appreciate!
More at the zipline - Dads being Dads of course.......
Bed head and snotty, and we STILL love her !
XOXOXOXOX
