Arco-Lost Tral

In August, Jeff & I took a drive...up to Arco, ate at the little sandwich shop above...um...it was such good sandwiches.  We loved it.  Jeff ordered a six inch and I ordered a four inch and neither one of us could eat it all.  We each asked to have what we hadn't eaten wrapped and then left.  We drove over Lost Trail and into Sun Valley then home.  When we got home, I said...where's my purse?  Well, when we went in the sandwich shop, I had sit it on an extra chair and when I went up to have my extra wrapped, we left right from there and I didn't sit down again.  So...I didn't grab my purse.  I finally found a number for them by calling the RV park we usually camp at and called.  Yes, they had found it and had it sitting back at the counter. SO...we had to drive to Arco again the next day.  I felt stupid....
The really cool thing is, they hadn't even opened the purse to find a name or anything.  EVERYTHING was still in it!  Love smaller towns where people are honest and honorable.  They were soooo nice.  We ate there again and it was just as delicious.  I would recommend that place to anyone.

Keeping Kierra

Back in August, Jeff and I kept Kierra, Treven, and Ellie for a day...then extended the stay for Treven and Ellie...another day. 
Kierra was just so cute.  She would just giggle when I'd play "boo" with her.  I tried to video it, but I couldn't hide my face and say boo and take video all at the same time.  But she was just so much fun to have for the day.  We would keep her anytime!
Treven and Ellie were fun too.  Ellie and I crafted and Treven helped Grandpa with the 4-wheeler.  On Tuesday, I took them into the skate park and Treven played for awhile, then we came home and Grandpa helped him make a ramp out of plywood for his skateboard.  He was pretty excited about it, and even tried to give Grandpa $10.00 for helping him and the materials.  I thought that was really cool.  Of course, Jeff didn't take it...but he's been taught well!

Nieces (opps...great-nieces)

This isn't even a current photo, but I think these little girls are just so darling and they are so cute together.  They are cousins!

Summer flowers

About this time of year, I'm really missing all my flowers.  I love having flower barrels and the roses.  My only problem is that the rose bushes just keep dying and I'm pretty tired of replacing them.  So, I'm starting to put in different plants.  I got a couple starts for bleeding heart and some pink peonies from mom this year.  Let's hope they make it through the winter.

Project Life Week 23 2015

This was the week of Chris's graduation and I couldn't go because of my pneumonia...I couldn't quite coughing.  It was horrible.  I've never had pneumonia before and hope I never have it again.

Project Life Week 22 2015

We had four grandkids graduate this spring...we're getting soooo old.  One from Steph's, one from Jason's, one from Danelle's, and one from CJ's family.  I got pneumonia and didn't even get to go to their graduation party.  I did make everyone's graduation but Chris's.  It was awful being so sick though.  So proud of all of them!

Fixing my serger

Thank heavens for a sister like Margene.  She is always so helpful and willing to do things for me...like fix my serger.  I haven't even used it for several years because it kept cutting the threads and I couldn't figure out what was wrong.  When I decided to do the preemie hearts though, I really needed it.  So I swallowed my pride and asked her if she'd help me.  Sure enough...first time...it worked.  Love her!

The Ellsworths

I thought this was such a cute photo, I had to share.  The man is our Son-In-Law, Mark Ellsworth.  Next to him is Tayler..then a couple I don't know...then Kaylin and Tricia.  They live in Yuma, so we don't see them too often, but love them.

Project Life Week 20 2015

This was the week we got our sweet Kierra...how we love her.  She is already getting so big and personality plus.  AND...I get to keep her next Monday....yeah!
