03/23/15 YW Basketball team plays regionals

3/23/2015
Katie playing ball
Yesterday got super busy and I didn't get your letter written as usual.  
I got called back into YW camp assistant director so we had a meeting yesterday morning.  Sister Rae is the director and Sister Harrison and I are assistants.  Should be fun.  Plus the presidency sounds like they will be up there quite a bit...Sister Clark and Hafen and they are both fun.

Saturday Katie's church ball team was in the regional championship.  (a couple teams from several different stakes met up and had playoffs).  She was babysitting during the 9 a.m. game which her team won.  They had another game at 1 p.m. and won again.  They had to play again at 3 p.m.  At that point they were down to 4 girls (preference was that night and a dance competition so some of the girls had to leave).  They were able to round up Rachel Lusk and have 5. Our lil team did awesome.  They lost by only 5 or 6 points but they kept it close the whole game and I think they just ran out of gas.  The other team had at least 10 players so they were able to
keep them fresh and rested.   Pretty exciting.  After that Katie had a soccer game at 5 p.m.  Whew.  She was pretty tired Sunday!
Friday night we had a BBQ with the bishopric. It was fun and nice. We went to Fife's backyard.  Weather was perfect.  Lots of room for kids to play.  
Wednesday night there was a ward auction fund raiser for the youth.  They had stuff and services to auction and a dinner. It was $10/each to get in and they served pulled pork sandwiches and chips and salad.  It was well put together and fun.  I think they made a pretty good amount of money. The ward is starting from $0 since we are brand new and we need camping stuff and manuals and who knows what else.  
Seems like there was something every day this past week for church and this week coming up is shaping up to be similar. There is RS diner Thursday and broadcast Saturday.  I guess they are keeping us out of trouble by keeping us busy!
Tired team won 2nd place!
So, I'm a little worried about you.  Is everything ok? You sounded a little down in your short note to me.  Do you want to elaborate and see if we can work through some stuff together? Or is it just adjusting to the new area and you are ok? Grandma said a beautiful prayer on Sunday dinner blessing you and we are also mindful of you.

01/12/26 Just a couple of things going on

Every Monday night we do family night pizza. This has included Eldon and Diane for quite awhile now. They left on a round the world cruise and will be gone from January - May. So we sent them a pic of these two cuties and told them we missed them.  Found this fun scratch off -- you can mark everywhere you've been. We want to travel in our retirement and thought this would be a fun way to keep track of it. (We also have a world map but I think 1 on the wall is enough).  SO this is our little inspiration wall to remind us to get out and see the world! Holly painted this picture on her wall a couple of years ago. I added some words and music notes in vinyl to it. I'm working on turning her bedroom into my music sanctuary.  The WELCOME pineapple sign was starting to peel off. I took off all the vinyl and painted the words instead. Gave it a nice refresh! We signed up for classes at the college too -- currently we are taking World travel, AI (artificial intelligence), Aging an...

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. )

01/13/26 How Many Cookies?!?!?

  I planned to visit Washington City and go to the ladies luncheon (they do it monthly on shut off day). I found a new recipe that included putting smashed pretzels in the mix. (I had smashed pretzel, cereal mixture leftover from Christmas).  The recipe said it would make 22 cookies. I figured I would triple it and have 66.  Welp...they must have been some BIG cookies they were making...cause I got 126 cookies!!!!  What the heck?! I backed 24 of them and put the rest in the freezer. Someone will have a nice treat another day!
