02/23/15 Proposal

2/23/2015
Happy Couple!

Weather didn't cooperate but the engagement must go on!
Just out on a Sunday walk

He's asking her...

I think she said...YES!!! 

So Sunday was different...took a trip to the temple and watched as Dallas proposed to McKayla in front of the St. George temple in the rain.  They are pretty excited.  Wedding is planned for June 18 at the Salt Lake Temple.  They are busy making plans and notifying everyone and just pretty excited about the whole thing.
Look ma...she said yes!!!!
Been a pretty usual week...all the activities etc. Katie got a fever and cough Wednesday night and was "grounded" from going to her activity.  She was in charge and had been planning it for quite some time.  So she was pretty unhappy with us.  But she had a 101 temperature...I couldn't in good conscious send her up there!
She is still hacking a bit but she is on the mend.


When something exciting happens...phone a friend. 
Dad went down with it on Thursday afternoon.  He has been pretty miserable ever since.  He missed playoff game Friday night because he couldn't even talk without hacking up a lung.  Bleh.  He went to bishopric meeting yesterday but they invited him to take the afternoon off of church since he coughed so much. Poor guy. I told him if he didn't feel better this morning to go to the dr and get some antibiotic.


Max Harrison gave his farewell.  He leaves Wednesday morning for the MTC and then he is off to Japan.  He seemed pretty excited and a little emotional.  He did a great talk.


The girls and I volunteered at Dog Town Marathon on Saturday and that was fun.  The weather was perfect...like 70+ and sunny.  
Down on one knee.
This morning woke up to snow.  And it's sticking!!!!  Seriously...how do you go from 70 to 35 in 2 days?!  It's been pretty awesome here for some time so all the trees were budding, people have needed to mow the laws. Etc.  I don't know what this snow is going to do to our vegetation!
Katie is doing SUPAF saxophone solo performance this afternoon so hopefully she nails it.  She is pretty nervous!  
Early out all week for Holly...fun day to have early out.  She can play in the snow!!!
They are pretty excited
Hope you are doing great.  I'll try to send pictures tonight.  I'm at work since yesterday morning got away from me and I didn't get your letter sent.  
Quote of the week:


XOXO  Mom.

06/14/25 Pre-Yellowstone

Last year for Christmas I purchased a vacation to Yellowstone for the kids and us. The dates for the Yellowstone cabin were June 16-June 20. We decided to break the trip up a little and drive up the weekend before and drive home the weekend after. Also, because Katie got married, and Dallas has limited time off, he was unable to take his family on the trip. We stayed at his house and got some twin time in before we continued north.  Aspen and John moved to Pennsylvania and are in Utah for the summer. On our way up north we stopped at Becky's house to see them and their sweet new baby.  Erik recently got a new job so he was also not able to join us on our trip. Holly became our little girl again and traveled with us.  Holly and Millie My dad's been in the care center so we stopped by to visit him. He's being well cared for. He is struggling to put sentences together. We came and went to church with him at the care center. He's been asking for a really good pizza. So we w...

06/16/25-06/20/25 Yellowstone

We had a really great week on our Yellowstone trip. We stayed at a VRBO cabin in a remote cabin in Ashton, Idaho. It was just right for our group. We were able to go to Yellowstone, Grand Teton, Mesa Falls, the Yellowstone Playhouse, Lava Hot Springs Pools and Slides.  We drove lots, played games, did puzzles, roasted hot dogs, made s'mores, enjoyed picnic lunches, ice cream at the frost top, dinners together made by each lil family and so much more.  Loved it! (There are lots more pictures in our shared Yellowstone google album. Also, these pictures are not in order of happening. )

08/20/25 Max out of pocket reached early again...hospital here we come

As is customary, within 7-10 days from returning from a trip we go to the hospital.  We stayed out of the ocean -- while we were in the Bahamas -- in order to keep Andy healthy. (We have determined that he has been getting infections through his swollen legs or cuts on his feet.)  Andy did not get infection from being naughty! haha BUT he somehow picked up COVID!  What the heck?! On Sunday last week (Aug 10) he started having a scratchy throat, voice. It got worse and most of last week he had laryngitis.  That resolved itself and he was feeling pretty fine. We had a full Wednesday. Around 9 p.m. he said he was feeling a little funky/woozy, whatever. Off?!   We went to bed and his temperature reading was still below normal but he was having body aches and shivering. We tried to sleep but he was clearly in pain and tossing and turning.  About 1:00 a.m. I got up and checked his temperature...100. Hmm. I looked at his legs and it looked like he might possi...
