1/31/16 Pizza & Basketball

Cheerleaders at the girls' basketball game
Miranda Warby, McKenzie & Lauren Riley
This week Monday night pizza was at the Brick Oven.  Love the pizza but they are kinda pricey.  It was just the 5 of us (McKayla had to work) and Gma and Gpa were too tired to join us. Just a note...never sit between Dad and Dallas at a pizza joint that only has one pepper and Parmesan cheese container on the table.  They kept passing it back and forth over me until I was ready to smack 'em both!  They thought it was funny. #Never.doing.that.again! Haha. 

Tuesday was way too long.  Got home about 8:30 p.m.  Makes for a nice Friday (usually!) but no so much the Tuesday!

Wednesday night the girls had basketball and the makeovers and pictures at YW.  They got their hair and makeup done really cute.  They had a nice time and now they want to wear makeup.  I guess it won't be long...they are getting older every day!  Dad worked Wednesday night and I was left all alone! I went to to costco and did some house cleaning.  Nothing exciting.  I'll be alone on Wednesday's unless they call me into YW or once sports season is over it will be just dad and me.  So strange having our family grow up!  Not used to quiet time!

Thursday the girls YW basketball season started and they won and had a nice time.  It's so nice to have them on the same teams and same activities right now!!!

Friday was like any other - got off early.  Had plans to run some errands and play pickleball and girls night/dad work.  Sent whole 'nother email about Friday. 

Saturday we went to the dr and they checked out Dad's knee.  He has an MRI scheduled for next week as they think he may have torn some ligaments in our lil accident yesterday.  He has sore hips and neck and just over all achey-ness. I have been having some neck and shoulder pain for quite some time so I had the dr check me out also since I was already at the dr.  He said I have a trapezial strain and ordered rehab and anti-inflammatory and muscle relaxants.  We are both kind a sore and just trying to recuperate. 

Well time to head to church so I gotta run!! 

Spiritual thought for the week:
Katie really likes Helaman 5 and thinks you should read it.  Lehi and Nephi, Helaman's sons are becoming more righteous.  They convert most of the Lamanites in this one miracle. The Lamanites put them in prison.  Then they tried to burn them and they were standing in the middle of the fire but they weren't burned. 




47 Peace, peace be unto you, because of your faith in my Well Beloved, who was from the foundation of the world.

Hope you have a great week!  We love you and miss you!  Thanks for being such a great example and wonderful son!!!! Love you!!! Mom

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...

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!

03/27/26 Trip to Italy, Day 4, Friday, Venice to Florence

We headed out around 9 a.m.  and got some breakfast in the train station. We played some games until it was time to go just at a table outside of the restaurant. We traveled from Venice to Florence by train… about 2 hours. It was really comfortable and nice and fun to watch the countryside go by. They even served soda and a snack on the train! Upon arrival we dropped off our luggage at the travel agency. Found some food at a grocery store and ate on a   bench on the street. The streets were sooo busy! We then had a tour of the largest cathedral in Italy, Duomo, the crypt below and Kevin and Becky climbed the bell tower. Over 400 steps to a beautiful view of Florence. Fun fact...every city in Italy has a Duomo -  Duomo means the biggest (most important) chapel in that city.  We walked back to our place…and wow!! It’s on the fourth floor and it is awesome. Very spacious 2B3b with a washer. There was a little tiny elevator to go up to the apartment. It had windows so yo...
