Well, I got my trip to Arizona sooner than I planned. My Grandpa Drorbaugh passed away and I flew down to the funeral. I did get to see my family and have time to visit with them. The weather was cold and rainy in honor of the occasion.

Jason bough himself "Excaliber," which is a large broad sword (nerf style). It gives him a little bit of an advantage because he can reach farther and keep Kaylee away easier.

So Saturday the weather finally became winterized. I personally wanted to boycott and run away to somewhere that was warm and sunny. I was out at the Home Depot returning closet doors, yet another drama in my construction saga, and a man took pity on me as a wrestled these huge doors out of the back of my car and helped me get them into the store. I could have done it myself but I must have looked awefully pathetic.
Mom is playing Granna Elf right now and working on all kinds of projects for the Grandkids. My brain has stopped its planning already. I haven't been my normal self this year and I still have to get presents for everyone...bad bad. Yes I will be one of those dreaded last minute shoppers this year and have to fight the madness.
Nothing much else is happening here in Utah. Just the same old same old.
I have delayed posting anything lately because I haven't felt very inspirational with all I am doing. However, I did want to brag about some cute kids in my family and the fun that I have had with friends and family.
Favorite memories I have made over the last few weeks include:
1- Seeing the Shamu show 2 times so that we could get wet.
2- Running across Sea World so Eli and Emma could both go on the Atlantis ride.
3- Feeling like an old foggy because I had to stop and rest a ton as we walked around the park.
4- Jessica shepherding my family around because we prepared for the vacation but not that well.
5- Seeing the beautiful picture that Jessica took of me where I look like a retard imitating Shamu for the kids.
6- Realizing that I am not Wonder Woman and work will have to wait.
7- Getting lost in San Diego and hitting the Naval base at two different locations trying to find our hotel.
8- Falling off a chair at work, causing a shelf and its contents to crash to the ground, and all my staff come running because they thought that a patient was in trouble...don't worry it is only me.
9- Natalie coming to visit for Conference.
10- Caleb smiling and giving loves to me.
11- Kaylee playing restaurant at Papa's house during conference.
12- Picking the last of the tomatoes, green beans, and squash in the dark while it was snowing because it was going to freeze that night.
13- Playing distructo in the basement.
So, now that you are board stiff with my ramblings I will share a few photos to illustrate my latest adventures.
