Catching up

We had a GREAT weekend at Dani's last month.  She is a great hostess and even took us to a ball game.  

It was fun to have Grma go with us....  the game was fun and it was a great evening.

We went to a "funeral/memorial" of one of her friends  - it was held in the park and what a park it was.  The service was great, the food was yummy ( sorry didn't take any pics of the funeral...  didn't seem right) but the park was huge and it had a super train system...  John Grubb...  eat your heart out!!!  it was HUGE....  we walked it and took some pics to bring back to him.

Grma and I stood and took some videos of the trains going by...  it was amazing...  one right after another... it was a busy place.


The park even had cute geese and babies.....


We did a bunch of gardening while there...  here is what we did with her pots out front....

Thanks Dani for a great time!!!

Next was M and L's graduation.  L got a little stage fright, but it was a great show. !

 
  

 The "critters" from the entertainment was exciting... M spent part of the time hiding behind my back ..  they were a little scary!!

Inline image 1  The snake was the grand finale and that wasn't even the biggest one - this one was....  and all you can see here is the tail...  let your imagination fill in the rest!!!!

Memorial Day was a marathon of activities...  It started with Sunday.  After Broadcast, and church   we headed to Fillmore.  Marti had gone down the day before and put some pics that Joan had orchestrated and Kristie had created.  The place looked festive and nice.  We dropped over to Aunt Iris's after and said hello and spent a little time there before heading back home.


Then on Monday we gathered together a whole bunch of folk and headed up to Cutler's Marsh in Box Elder County and did some kayaking.  Let's see if I can remember everyone who went.
Brent and I
Jess and Crew
Kim
Grma
Val and Diane
Dave C and his son-in-law
Neil B and 2 of his daughters and their families

Unfortunately, because the phone was left in the trailer for safe (and dry) keeping...  no pics were taken.  The marsh is a beautiful place with lots of calm paddling...  the wind was pretty stiff heading back... so that was a little rough, but it was a great time.

From there we went to Newton.  It had been a long time since we were there....  so it was good to go back.
after exploring the cemetery and getting to know it again, we headed into Logan and lunch at Olive Garden.  Then back home and to the Uintah cemetery.





It was a long but enjoyable day, that was finished off with FHE at Rose's home.  The even took us out to their garden a gave us 2 bags full of spinach!!!  we are set!!

Here are some random pics of playing in the yard from last week...  yes as you can see the "monkey" genes were inherited....  they can climb like their mom.....



I guess you can say I am officially caught up.
