07/05/17 Day Six - Park City - Mojo's and Factory outlet and Chabasco's

Lazy day with just us and the girls.

Andy had a rough night due to back pain and elevation and such. I had a terrible night due to asthma and not having an inhaler readily available. So we didn't get moving early!!!

We had a secret shop at Mojo's restaurant up by the alpine slide so we went and did that afternoon. We got a couple of entrees and shared them four ways. Also some nachos and cookies. We found a souvenir shop and everyone got cute park city shirts. Then it started raining and thundering -- not forecast, no expected -- didn't last long!

It was kind of nice though because it cooled everything down. So we went to the outlet malls and walked around for a long time. Found Andy some sneakers for pickle ball -- he wanted daily shoes too but we didn't have any luck with that. We walked the whole lower half of the outlets and then headed over to walmart.

While on this trip Andy decided for sure to go to Mexico for surgery. The surgery is two weeks away -- which means he has to start a special diet immediately. So we went over to walmart to pickup some protein powder and gatorade and things. Prior to the surgery he has to try to lose a bunch of weight to help make it easier to perform the surgery. It will be a rough couple of weeks - shakes, salads, no sodas. So we are gearing up to help out and get through it!

For Andy's "last supper" before the surgery we went to Chubasco's - a park city local Mexican joint. That place was super crowded and yummy. We got two entrees and shared them again along with nachos. We had a fun time with the girls and enjoyed Andy's last real meal.

After dinner we went straight instead of turning and decided to take a nice drive. We found some fun signs -- lil Kate driver and Andy for Mayor!

The weather gets cool here in the evening and the pool has pretty chilly water so we didn't swim -- the girls read books and hung out (it was already after 9 p.m.!!!!)

Andy and I decided to go to the hot tub late though! It was so nice. Everyone was gone and we had it to ourselves again and had a little hot tub date late in the evening! The pool says it closes at 10 but we stayed until almost 11 p.m. and there was noone to tell us to go home so we didn't! I thought we'd be freezing but sitting in the hot tub for awhile heats you up so it wasn't cold at all!

09/10/23 Hey, do you get to read letters on non-p day, p day?

First time trying a lime Pineapple was more pleasing than lime Well...we went to Provo on Saturday and Sunday -- so your letter is a little later on Sunday than usual...but then I got to thinking...will you even get to see this before Thursday anyway?! So hopefully you're not sad that I'm late and all is well in CHILE. It's a rainy sabbath here...which is weird cause we rarely get rain. But it is drizzly and rainy and our ride home was beautiful for 2 hours, raining for 1 1/2 hours, and then pretty good the rest of the way. Let's see...what happened this week...Monday was Labor Day...so we had a day off work. Yeah!!! We didn't have anywhere we needed to go and planned to have a quiet Monday but first, we went to this store called Sheridan's that is super close to our house. And we found some wonderful outdoor patio furniture. It took us 3 trips to get it all home and all afternoon to unpack and assemble it. So at 5:30, we were just finishing and kinda tired ...

11/09/24 The temple

St George Temple This morning I woke up early and continued to read "Your Endowment", a book Grandma Griffin gave me several years ago but that I never read cover to cover. It is of course, about the temple and the meaning behind the endowment and the other things we learn about in the temple. I'll be honest, a lot of it feels "over my head". I am seeking to learn and know and understand more but I don't have a thorough understanding at this time. Kathy and Steve Spring Yesterday I went to visit Kathy Spring. She worked at Washington City for many years and retired almost 3 years ago. We were good friends and she helped me in the court for quite awhile. Her husband died in January of 2020...looking back she is convinced it was covid but it was just before covid really became a thing. So it's not official. In about a years time she lost her Dad, her husband, her son and a grandson. Life was pretty rough when we were friends back then and I could see the...

10/15/23 Last Letter!

Hey! Can you believe it?! It's your last letter from home!!! This time next week you'll be one tired Hermana sitting in my kitchen with me!!! What a week! Monday was Columbus Day - so everybody had to work ('cept me!!!!) haha I stayed home and worked on projects. I took your car to the tire shop and had the tires inflated and then to Walmart and got an oil change then to the car wash and got the shebang inside and out and then brought it home and scrubbed it for a couple more hours. Wow, it was dirty and still isn't great! haha. I also cleaned the pool and worked on the yard a bit and I don't even remember what else. I just remember I was super tired by day's end! On Tuesday Emmalee came over and did Holly's hair and makeup. She looked really pretty. Afterward, we went to the Covington Home to take pictures. And the funny thing...it was decked out in Halloween decorations. NOOOOO!!!! So we found some areas and took some pictures and I think we got a ...
