Our Trip to Yuma

Yuma Trip - March 2011

My sister and I took a trip to visit my parents who were "snowbirding" in Yuma. They are home now. They made us feel very welcome, and we enjoyed a relaxing time with them. We were able to enter Mexico (first time for Kuk), and also took a day and drove over to San Diego to go to the temple. On the way back to Utah, we stopped in Mesa and picked up Cam for a visit (picture coming soon). Life is great !  Click on the image above to be directed to our Picasa photo album, and then cycle through the slideshow.

Sneaky..............

While I was watching the little boys on Saturday morning (after a Friday night sleep-over), I heard a "crunch-crunch-crunch" coming from over in the kitchen. I had been sitting in the living room crocheting, not paying much attention........ "crunch - crunch - crunch".... what WAS that noise?? over and over again..........

For your information, 3 crunches is all it takes to devour ONE cheese ball. I guess when he lifted the BARREL down from the counter, there was a small mishap. Not one to let things go to waste.......and KNOWING that Grandma would put a STOP to this............Tagg took FULL ADVANTAGE of the situation, being as quiet and possible, except for the "crunch, crunch, crunch".

Of course, right when I figured out what was going on, his parents walk in the back door, and see the whole thing. Just my luck :)

Go Cougs ! Go Jimmer !

Moo Cow Mania

We have the best friends and neighbors in our neck of the woods.  I was able to take the grandkids up to see how cows were milked.  Aaron and Trevor were AWESOME !  The kids were so excited.

I love the look on Aaron's face.....he is just short of shaking his head, at all the questions that Treyson is firing at him.  Treyson is quite the talker.

I tell you, those kids got UP close and personal, and showed absolutely NO FEAR !  I was really impressed that they were totally at ease around those big animals.

Tagg spent most of his time, looking out into the barnyard at the cows.  He was all smiles, except for when the cow got "super mad" (check out Video #2)

It was an awesome experience,  the kids had a ball and will remember this for a long long time.

Thanks !!!

I have a new appreciation (haha) for Taylor Swift, as Cam discovered www.taylorswift.com, and I've heard ALL the songs all week. Gotta love it !!

Shout Out - Get a Colonoscopy !

My cousin, Joan Adams, on Good Morning Utah ! She inspired me, and thank goodness I came out with a clean bill of health (healthy colon). It was easy, no pain, no reason not to. You owe it to your family. Don't be like Doug Miller and put it off. Are you listening Roger D?

Happy Birthday - 33 years ago
