Memorial Weekend

Memorial weekend came and went without much fanfare. I spend Saturday working on my flower beds, planting flowers. Trying to make my yard look nice, not sure I'm succeeding but I'm trying. Later in the day we had a soccer game, which we won. It was scary for a while but we are still undefeated. It has really been a lot of fun playing with the 'kids'. There all very good about tolerating the old lady.

Mom, Dad, Skyler and Jessie were in Sumpter for the weekend shaving ice. Steve & Shawna were planning on driving up on Sunday for the day, so I decide to tag along. When the sun came out it was a nice day, but it would cloud up and RAIN HARD. We were able to wander around and look at what the vendors have to offer during one of the breaks in the clouds. Sky and Jessie had Avery with them. She was all bundled up but was a very good girl.

Look at how cute she is>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>


We went down and walked around the dredge. They are doing some work on it, but you can wander around on the dredge. I found it very interesting to read about how it worked. It would have been fun to actual see one in operation.
I had fun with the camera taking pictures of the dredge. I'm going to do a scrapbook page about it. Caught Granny & Pappa on camera, I think they were not happy about the weather. But they always enjoy the social side of Sumpter. It was a fun, relaxing day. Monday I did some more work in my yard, pulling weeds and planting a few more flowers. Tori and I started working on the jigsaw puzzle that I bought for $2.00.
Wasn't looking foreward to the weekend ending...... But it's back to work.

Welcome to the deep end...

...this is the message I got on Monday as I jumped in. Monday was my birthday, another milestone day.  One that I have been dreading for weeks.  Not sure why this one is so hard to swallow.   For weeks I have been feeling like the crocodile from Peter Pan...Tick-Tock, Tick-Tock.  The days just tick away. Birthday's are interesting, there is a build up as the day gets closer adding to the excitement (or dread).  Then the alarm goes off on the "BIG" day and you wake up just like any other day.  The same person, nothing feels different.  If it wasn't for the wrinkles you see in the mirror you wouldn't know you were any older. It isn't until you mentally do the math in your head and realize that you're starting a new decade of your life.  60 is the new 30, right!?! We need to not dwell on the years that have past, we should look forward to the years ahead of us, all the new adventures to be had, people to meet, life left to experience. So let's not

New addition

In March we got a new addition to our family.  This little baby is what makes memories and we are so looking forward to using it to make them. Tori and Chad went in with us to make this purchase.  After visiting every RV dealership in Boise, we settled on this Jayco Jay Feather from Bish RV.  We started looking last Sept and it took us so long to decide that the 2016 models were all sold out.  We were able to order 2017 at the 2016 price. Lucky us .  It took until March to get it to Boise, but that worked out great for us.  We didn't have to store it this winter. Last weekend we camped in our driveway to test out all the features to make sure we knew how to do things and that everything worked before we took it out to the wilds. Tori and Chad took it out this weekend to Mann's Creek.  From what I heard things went well, the only comment was that the main big bed was uncomfortable - "like a rock".  I'm sure that it was still better than sleeping on t
