Summer

Well hello, I have been lazy about writting on my blog since I am on facebook. I enjoy going into facebook to see what everyone has posted there and playing some of the games, I especially like veiwing everyones photos there. I have decided I ought to update my blog so here goes.
First off I am feeling sad that summer has almost come to an end, I do enjoy having warm weather where you can go outside and enjoy it without the worry of getting cold or slipping on or driving on the snow and ice. Spring started us off right with the birth of our second grandchild, Kenneth and Ashly had a sweet little baby girl they named Kassie and she is beautiful. It is fun to have a new baby around. We have had a good summer starting it out with preparing for Shawn and Pamela's wedding. They are a cute couple and we are getting to know Shawn a little better and have found out he has quite a sense of humor that makes it fun to be around him. Their marriage has brought a new granddaughter to us, her name is Madison, we met her at the wedding and she is adorable, she came up to me and whisppered "do you know that when Pam marries my dad she will be my mom" I thought that was very cute. We are glad to have Shawn and Madison as an addition to our family.
This summer we also made a trip to Park City to visit Kay C and Jessica to see where they live, they have a nice apartment and Jessica has decorated it well. While we were there they wanted to take us to see some of the stores that are there, so I told Kay C to drive our car because he knew where we were going, so he takes a shortcut through this parking lot where 3 cops are parked, and we thought he shouldn't go that way but he said it was alright, well he turns onto the road looks in his mirror and says hum I think I am getting pulled over. The cop comes to the window and tells him his windshield is badly cracked and that is why he got pulled over. I guess that is Kay C's luck we had that broken windshield for a few months and it was never a problem, but it turned out we didn't have a current insurance paper in the car so the cop went and checked us out and came back and just gave Kay C a verbal warning, then we were on our way. They have some cool stores in Park City we bought Karter a pair of spongebob crocks, and he was thrilled.
We decided not to go to Elk Horn this summer to camp because we always get rained on so much, but I did take a day and go visit everyone who decided to go and enjoyed seeing and visiting with them. We did go camping, we decided to go to Navajo Lake at the end of July, with Kenneth and Ashly and Pam and Shawn , and spent 3 or 4 days there and Dawnita and Jeff wanted to go camping so we told them to come and join us and it was fun to have them there, but sure enough it rained on us there too. We had one evening when trying to cook dutch oven chicken over the fire and it decided to rain and not just a little It pored putting out our fire out, and getting us all wet even though we were under the awning. The next day turned out to be a nice day and we hiked with Kenneth and Ashly to Cascade Falls, and they are very pretty and it was a good hike, so it didn't rain the whole time we were there but it rained plenty.
Now that summer is coming to an end my sweetheart decides he wants to use the rest of his vacation days he has built up at Ace and tells me we are going on a trip to Alaska, so we are ending the summer with a bang we will be flying to Alaska on Sep. 10 and coming home on the 15. I have never been on plane and I am nervous about getting motion sick but at the same time excited about going. Mindy is really happy we are coming so she can show us around, so it should be a fun time.
Well I am sure there are things I missed writing about but when we get back from Alaska I will blog about our trip, so that is all for now.
