Over the last two weeks we have been working on re-landscaping Mom's back yard. Between our working we have retreated to Granny's house for a dip in the pool. Here are a few pics of the swimming. I have neglected to take pictures of the landscape project but will fully document this later for your enjoyment.Kaylee loves her seal/dolphin and also as many noodles as she can manage to keep away from the rest of us.
The goggles are an absolute must have so that no splashes get in her eyes, not that she goes underwater unless by accident.
The little cheese.
Almost ready to dive. When Kaylee jumps to you it is more of a leaning tower of Piza than it is an actual jump.
Mom as always is the tannest of all of us. No surprise.

Pool Party
Thursday, June 19, 2008
Happy Sunday!!
We had a happy Father's Day in our neck of the woods. On Sunday Mom, Kaylee, Celeste, Jason, and I all went to G'ma Mace's house so that we could have a barbecue. It got a little warm and we all ended up in the shade around the pool cooling our feet and chatting for a while. Here are a cute pics that I wanted to share with you. The Men of Honor.
This is the Three Generation Scowl. Isn't it interesting how they all gave me the same look all at the same time?!
Now we wave goodbye until later. Love to all.

Such a beautiful day!
I was coming home from work earlier this week and thus sun was setting. I kept thinking of Minna, aka Melinda Rich, and how we would take ever so many pictures of beautiful sunsets on the Kaibab. So lately I have been carrying my camera with me because you never know when you will have a great picture to take. Anyways, past my tangent now, I pulled over and stopped next to... you will never guess... the cemetery and took a couple pics. I was too late to get the most vivid color but you can't just stop in the middle of the highway just for a great photo opportunity, that is if you care for life or car. It is amazing how God has created so many wonderfully beautiful things.

Yes, I am up to date?!
Well, since I have slacked off a bit with my frequent updating and story telling this will be a conglomeration of many events that have happened in the last few weeks.
Highlight #1:
Kaylee Anne has come to sleep-over at my house twice now. She loves it and thinks that it is a special treat. Most importantly she thinks that she rules the roost. The pics attached are from her first trip over. She didn't want to go home on the next morning so we went outside and worked in the yard for a little bit. She had to pick several bouquets of pink flowers from my tree. She also had to investigate what was in the garage.
Highlight #2
Kaylee's first skinned knee of the season happened on Mother's Day when Aunt Blondie and Kaylee went out for a walk from Granny Mace's house and we were collecting flowers for the frosting, thus inspired by Strawberry Shortcake. Kaylee got excited and took at tumble on the ever so crooked sidewalks of Kaysville and Aunt Blondie ended up carrying the "little" one for about a block until we could get home to get the damage mended.
Highlight #3
Mom and I went to the Cheesecake Factory on Saturday, scrumpdiddillyumptious. Then, to Mom's disappointment, the Mediterranean Mahi Mahi was not being served due to the e-coli and salmonella problems that they are having with fresh tomatoes. So a new dish was ventured upon and the Bang Bang Chicken & Shrimp has now become the #2 favorite for our adventures the
to this sanctimonious location.
Nothing else too splendorous has been happening except I have been devouring books right and left, as long as they are leisure related items. I will post more news soon but for now this is all that I can dream up that is of great importance and noteworthy.
(side note-- I did get my hair cut and highlighted and it is amazing how that makes me feel absatively posilutely brilliant.)
