I Love Summer

I love summer. I really need to find something about winter to love. It is 5 months of the year here. Working in the yard, playing at the park, golfing, just sitting outside soaking up the rays are all things I enjoy. I don't ski, snowshoe, or sleigh ride so what could I come up with to do in the winter that I would enjoy?? Got any ideas?? Quilting, maybe but that doesn't count. It is indoors. Shoveling the walks after a snow storm, trying to build a bigger snowman every big storm we have, going for a walk in boots. Ok, maybe I'll make it a point to learn how to love winter too.

Weekly Summer Grandkid Days

This spring we got together to decide on activities for our grandkids day. Thursday seemed to work best for everyone and except for camps and vacations it has worked very well. We have visited Liberty Park, The Aquarium, the 24th of July pre parade Float preview party, the blue park, had a Pirates and Princess party, and this week will be our family olympics. I have to say I have the best grandkids in the world and these days we get to spend together are such a joy. We have fun, fun, fun. Even though the ages range from 4 months to 14 years old every one has a good time. I am so proud of the older grandkids that help us with the younger ones. They are so good them. It really helps enhance the experiences we have.

Wolf Creek Vacation

Our daughter invited us to go with her and her family to Wolf Creek last month. We had a great time. Ogden has some very fun family places. The dinosaur park and the Tree House Museum were spectacular. The kids loved them. The best part was just being together. We swam, hiked, went on nature hunts, played games. I nearly stepped on a snake. That was exiting. I would love to live in that area. Not a lot of people and it is beautiful.
