Finishing up May, June and July

It seems like the months are really flying by. We finished up May with my birthday.

Happy 61 to me!!Julie made the most amazing cheese cake for me.

She is so nice. I know it was a lot of work and expense.

The best part was getting to see the girls.



For Memorial Day we went to the pioneer park at the This Is the Place monument.

Brigham Young's farm house.



Eliza graduated from pre-school. I'm pretty sure she was the smartest kid in her class.


Gary and Beth came for a visit and we had a bar-be-que.




Some princesses attended.



Hi Beth!!

(She's so happy because she's about to eat chocolate.)

This year we went to the Stadium of Fire on Saturday.

The show was great.




On the 4th of July, Monday, we did fireworks at the Collett's house.







We got rained out and had to quit. Eventually it was raining so hard it put out the fires so they wouldn't work.



During June and July I worked on my most recent project.

We bought a new dining room set.


I took the chairs apart, had them sprayed white, and then I recovered the seats in a fun and funky fabric.








I love the end result. It's elegant but not boring.


We went to Idaho for the Richins family reunion.

They had this 75 foot water slide and I couldn't resist giving it a try. I was really fun.


Phyllis flew in and we took her up with us.


We played dominoes back at home.


Last Sunday we celebrated Olivia and Eliza's birthdays with the Colletts.


We couldn't get Olivia to stop playing long enough to come blow out her candles.

The happy family.




Sorry there was so much all at once. Hope you didn't get too bored. Anyway, so far this summer has been wonderful!!
