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

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...

07/10/2025 Dad's Passing

Dad's stay at the care center ended up being 35 days. He had a care giver that really connected with him named Michael. Michael cared for him when he was living at home and then came out a couple of times to the care center before he died. He really appreciated those visits and lit up when Michael came to visit and help care for him. I'm thankful that I was able to see him the two weekends about two weeks before he died. He was still able to smile and sit and eat at that time. I'm so glad that Ruth and Becky were able to take the time and spend quite a bit of time with him the last couple of weeks before he died. His condition continued to deteriorate and it was not easy to see him that way and spend so much time there. But my sisters and Suzanne did what they could to make him comfortable at the end.  He was found dead in his bed on the morning of July 10. Rest in peace, Dad. I love you!

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. )
