More 4-wheeilng

I've still been very busy. But here are a couple of pictures.

My last blog was the way Isaac wants you to think he was on the 4-wheeler, but these pictures show what grandpa said Isaac did on the 4-wheeler.

It's kinda hard to tell on this picture but Isaac is close to tears. He always started crying when he started out on the 4-wheeler. He settled down after it started up and they got going.


This is how Isaac spent most of his 4-wheeler rides. He is sound asleep. He didn't nap much while they were camping, but the 4-wheeler put him to sleep every time.
It made it very difficult for Mike to drive the 4-wheeler with just one hand.


I'm going to be in away from the computer for a few days but when I get back I will have some more fun pictures.

Vroom Vroom

I've been very busy today and forgot all about my blog. I decided to just update it tomorrow, but then I remembered that I didn't do anything yesterday either. (I'm doing this late enough that it may count for today and tomorrow's.) Since I am getting so proficient at this blogging stuff, this picture didn't require any swear words at all. I just had to wait a while for my computer to do its thing.

This obviously is Mike and Isaac on the 4-wheeler up at Jack Creek.

My S'more

You get a bonus today. There is no way that I could choose just one of these pictures. And I bet you couldn't choose just one either.
I hope you enjoy.


I am recording this as Isaac told it to me.

Last week my da-da and gaw-gaw took me camping. We left ma-ma and my other gaw-gaw home. It was just the boys camping. We did lots of fun things and you will see more things later, but today we are talking about the s'more.
Da-da fixed me this s'more and gave it to me. I had never had a s'more before but I know that I will want some more. I do have to thank ma-ma because she told gaw-gaw that I HAD to have s'mores on my first camping trip ever.

So here I am in MY chair eating my s'more.



It tasted so good




I've never had marshmallows like this before.



Marshmallows are kinda sticky and gooey. I think that is what makes them taste so yummy. And chocolate is always good.
Can you tell how much I liked the s'more? I was very careful not to get any on me because I
wanted to eat every single bit of it.





Mmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm yummy for my tummy and all the rest of me too.

The Chair

Isaac got his own camping chair. He loves it. He was so excited that he had to try it out for size before they went out camping and it fits!
But it doesn't have a cup holder or a umbrella. Guess he will have to suffer through that inconvenience.

One Cool Dude

WOW! I did it again. My computer had some issues so it took a few tries. I promise it was my computer's fault, not mine.
I decided instead of sending a bunch of pictures at a time to try to send one every day or so. At least while I have new photos to share.
I put this one on the background of my desktop today. We go out of our way to look at it on the computer. It gives us a smile.
Sorry Steph, I know I already sent this one to you. I promise a new picture tomorrow. (Unless we have technical difficulties.)
Isn't he just cute!!!!

The Garden

I now know why I was inspired to NOT post pictures on here. What a pain this process has been. The whole time I was 1 step away from it working. That is the story of my life with computers. And these pictures aren't even worth all the hassle they caused, but hopefully I will remember how to do this next time for the GOOD pictures. And maybe next time it won't take hours and hours and several calls to Lance and Molly for help. I'm going to look into buying one of those programs that schools have so they can see my monitor.

Anyway, back to my pictures. This is my little boys' pumpkin. I think they can start carving on it in what a week or so?????





And this is their hubbard squash with some weeds next to it. Guess I will have to pull them before the next update.




And now that I may know what I am doing some Isaac pictures will be my next venture when I have 6 or 8 hours to work on it.

The Wake

I know I am behind on my blog, but I had a special little visitor and his parents for a few days so I am a little behind my already behind schedule.

First I would tell everyone to check out Isaac's link on my blog. They have posted some new info.

I'm still feeling good and no UTI symptoms! I know you are all excited to hear about that.

I got my garden all planted. And then just over a week later, replanted the parts that froze in June. And now the poor little guys are getting sun burned. This weather just doesn't know what to do. I'm sure pictures of my garden will show up here at some time.

Let me leave you with something to make you laugh. A few weeks ago we spent the weekend with Mike's sisters and parents. It was a fun visit. Of course we planned this out weeks in advance. We also planned for Pal and Jessie to have a priesthood blessing while we were all there. Well, Mike forgot to take the consecrated oil so I went to Jessie's neighbors to borrow some. As soon as I asked for the consecrated oil, they turned white and asked if Pal was pretty sick. They thought he was knocking on death's door. They were so panicked. I reassured them that he was ok. They and the rest of the neighborhood were worried when they saw 3 extra cars in the driveway. We heard from the rest of the neighbors when we went to church on Sunday. Yep, the gossip mill is still alive and well in Panaca.
I must say that it is very nice to know that so many people are very concerned for Pal and Jessie. Times are tough for them but they are tough and getting through it pretty well.

I will try to put some pictures on in the next little while. So stay tuned.

Arctic Circle

I've been well over a week now with no UTI symptoms. All I have to say is it has been a really long time coming. And I hope it stays this way.
I think I need to go to Arctic Circle to celebrate. Those of you who don't have TV will have to ask someone about the AC commercials.

Travel log

Molly said that all our trips would keep me busy blogging. Here's our latest adventure. We went to Panaca last weekend. We spent Saturday visiting with Mike's parents and his sisters and had some good Dutch Oven cooking. We had a good visit.

I finally planted part of my garden yesterday. It is a Lance garden. I planted potatoes and corn. I think he would allow pumpkins also. Then it started raining so I had to quit. The pumpkins are the next thing to be planted and I sure would like to get my tomatoes going. We are really soggy today so it will be a few days before I can get out there again. It has not been a gardeners spring here. It has either been too cold or too rainy or too hot. And of course my environment has to be just perfect for me to work.
