Vacation Planning...Great Excitement

Celeste, my cute little sister, and I have been planning our summer adventure over the past couple weeks. Bruce and I will be driving to Folsom and then we will adventure around the Yosemite, Tahoe, and Sierra Nevada's.  We are so very excited.  I haven't gone on an excursion since March last year when Natalie and Mom payed for me to go down to Zion with them. (I did find out Natalie is coming up for our nephew's baptism and I am extremely excited for that!)

This has bee one thing that I have missed since being married. I loved going on my little trips. No, I was never a big World traveler but I would go to California and see my sisters and then down to Jacob Lake to check on My Grand Canyon as well. Last time I was in California this is a picture I took in a cave we visited.

Now Celeste and Jason have another little baby, Paige, and I am excited to meet her for the first time this summer and have my baby hunger fed for a few minutes and I can be okay for a little while longer. (No kids coming this way any time soon so don't worry).

2 Years and Going Strong

Yesterday Bruce and I celebrated 2 years of marriage!  I cannot believe it and then again I can. It has been a great rollercoaster, to quote my buddy Blakelee.  We have lived and learned and hope to be together for a long time in our learning adventure.

I do have to give props to the hubby. He bought me this beautiful necklace because he knows how much I LOVE turquoise jewelry. I love him very much.

Saturday Fun with Aunt Blondie

The kids-- Emma, Eli, and Maylee-- spent the day with me on Saturday. Their Dad and Mom were in Logan for Davey's and Mom's Choir Concert. We went and ran errands and then also made a little time to watch Kung Fu Panda 1 & 2.  It was a lot of fun. They are cute kids and love to play and have attention.  I was exhausted afterwards.  Yes, I don't have the stamina that true Mom's do. But maybe someday that will come when we get around to the children thing.

April Showers

April is upon us once again and the weather in Utah cannot decide what it wants to do. I am longing for spring. Every morning as the bus I ride to work drives past Temple Square I stare out at the flowers that are starting to bloom and I hope that they don't get frozen.  The other day I was over at my Mom's house. I peeked out the back door to see if the apricot tree was blooming and there were cute little blossoms on it. My niece, Emma, was out on the deck with me and I jokingly put my hands over her eyes like glasses and asked her if she had sung "Popcorn Popping on the Apricot Tree." Emma is 10 and she realized as we were out there that the blossoms truly do look like popcorn in a way.

Tomorrow is Davey's birthday, my brother.  He is the old man of the clan and continues to lead out in strength and truth. Currently he is working for Kennecott.  I am so glad to have him and his family near by.  They keep me sane and I love to have the kids around for play dates.

Bruce continues to plug away at work and then come home to do his Aerating and Lawn Care business on the side. I am still working at the U.  Other than that nothing else spectacular is going on.  I have been slacking lately because we haven't had a reliable computer, thus no posts and no pictures.  But I do want to share a couple pictures of quilts that I finished in the last little while.
