Meet Cash

Gary got a puppy for his birthday.
Cash is his name and he's an English Bulldog.
He has melted our hearts.
Even Kasper is in love with Cash.

Cam spent the day with me on Tuesday,
when Cash joined our family.
Cam is insisting we call him "Snort"
as he does a lot of snorting.



He's a very loving puppy and is always under foot.
When I sit at my desk, he generally curls up on my toes for a little nap.
Isn't he just the cutest little guy!?!

Snippets of our Summer



Tony's 7th Birthday was celebrated at Chuckee Cheese with all the kids.
He was a very happy birthday boy!

Our summer wasn't all play, we sweated and worked hard sanding and re-staining all our decks. That was a huge undertaking but well worth the work. They look beautiful, better than ever before.




Attending some of Crystal's riding events was a new experience for me. She's quite a rider and it's been fun for me to learn about the world Gary came from with horses and rodeos.



A Summer night camp out in the backyard with Brexton, Zach, Max and Cam was a really fun night for an old grandma. It's been a long time since I slept on the ground but definitely a night to remember. These 4 very special boys make everything fun for me. They are so full of life and love, every minute with them is an experience to remember.

A birthday dinner with Mary and Jeff as we celebrated Jeff's "50th" ??? birthday. He was a really good sport when they told him he had to sit in the saddle for a birthday YeeeHaaw.

It's been a great summer with kids and family, concerts and camp outs, exploring Farmington Canyon and just hanging out and enjoying the life we're living.
Thanks to everyone who's been a part of our summer.

Sadie's Blessing



Our Beautiful Granddaughter, Sadie Rose, was blessed on Aug 2nd.



Proud Grandma with Sadie.



The blessing was followed with a lunch and swim party at Bryan and Annalisa's home. We all had a really good time being together for this special day. Grandma enjoyed swimming with the kids: Max, Brexton, Xander, Ethan, Grandma and Shea in the pool.



Seth shows off how big he is as he takes his 1st steps.

Snowbanks, Wildflowers and Water Fights

Saturday we drove up Farmington Canyon to find some cooler temps. We were successful, it was probably 15 degrees cooler.
We came across several snowbanks on the backside....



...and the wildflowers were very abundant and gorgeous.



This is us overlooking Farmington and The Great Salt Lake.



It took some convincing on my part for Gary to believe he could fit his jeep between these 2 trees.



Kasper loves going in the jeep (see her grinning as she hangs out the back at the snowbank)
She enjoyed many swims in the lake to retrieve her stick.



Sunday was a BBQ and water party with the kids.
Uncle Bryan made a big hit with the kids as he filled water balloons...



...The boys had a "BLAST" throwing balloons at each other and all of us.



Another great weekend with the family.
We are truly blessed to be able to enjoy days like these.
