My Country Song Week

You know the old saying that if you play a Country Song backwards things would be better???? Well I had a week like that. My dad had been sick, in bed most of the week, my dog




went in to have a fat mas removed and it turned out to be much more!!! The growth went through 3 muscles and we are having it biopsied because the Vet thinks it is cancer. Here he is the first day...................


He was even sadder the second day because he couldn't stop licking and he had to have a neat cone added to his new attire. He pouted all day!

Then, Sariah and the boys moved back home. Thank isn't a bad thing it just takes a ton of moving the house around to make everyone comfortable and so it was a busy weekend.

I LOVE SUMMER

CHICKENS.....They are so fun to watch. Yesterday, Aug 10, after they had been practicing flying, they ran from one end of their area to the other taking a few steps and flying a few feet, not very high off the ground(we need to clip their wings) they must have been tired to into the garden box they went and rolled around and threw that dirt all over themselves. They stick so close together they look like one big feather patch. We should start to get eggs from them next month. FUN FUN FUN................
Poor Amos, he has a mass on his side that is about the size of a softball cut in half going from his groin area to his spine. He had it biopsied on Tuesday and he isn't feeling very well. He gets to have it removed on the 16th. What we don't do and pay for the ones we love.


Monday the 8th we had a fun grandma day. Kamden and Merric go to my house at about 7:30 and after breakfast we went and picked up Cierra, Breein and Brock and we drove down to Orem to pick up Kaylee and off we went to the discovery park. We had a great time. It is fun to see them play so well together!
After the park we dropped off Kaylee, I took the older kids swimming at Sariah's pool. They had a blast!Brock, Merric and Kaylee on a flat swing......................






I pushed Kaylee on the swing for about 1/2 hour. She loved it.. The other kids were playing a castle game running and chasing each other all over the place.....



Tom and I went for a ride on Sunday. We have not had much time to ride our motorcycles this summer and since Sunday was a nice day we did. We rode the Alpine loope and it is so green still. It was Beautiful.




We stopped at Sundance and took these pictures..the water is still running fast and high.




I love Summer..................................

ONE BUSY SUMMER!

BEFORE AND AFTER PICTURES ARE FUN..
RODNEY HAD TO HAVE HAND SURGERY.
AS THEY WERE PACKING THEIR STUFF TO MOVE INTO THEIR NEW HOUSE, THE WEEK BEFORE WE LEFT ON TREK, RODNEY SHOT HIMSELF IN THE HAND WITH HIS BEBE GUN. THE SAFETY OBVIOUSLY DOESN'T WORK AND AS HE WAS MOVING IT.
IT WENT OFF AND LODGED A BEBE INTO HIS HAND.
HE IS SMILING BECAUSE HE HASN'T HAD THE SURGERY YET, THIS IS 3 DAYS AFTER BRIELLE WAS BORN SO I TOOK HIM FOR THIS...........................
THIS IS AFTER. NOTICE THE HAND. IT WAS A LITTLE MORE COMPLICATED THEN THEY HAD PREDICTED BECAUSE THE BEBE HAD RUSTED AND THEY HAD TO DO SOME MAJOR CLEANING WHILE THEY WERE IN THERE. HE WAS LOTS OF FUN TO WAKE UP!
HE WAS SO TIRED FROM MOVING, THE BABY BEING BORN AND COVERING FOR US WITH THE BUSINESS WHILE WE WERE ON TREK THAT IT TOOK 2 HOURS TO WAKE HIM UP. I THINK HE COULD HAVE SLEPT ALL DAY.....


WE WELCOMED BRIELLE AUTUMN SMITH INTO OUR FAMILY ON JULY 25, RIGHT AFTER TREK. SHE IS A SUCH A JOY. SHE WAS 8 LBS, 2OZ AND 18 INCHES LONG..

PROUD GRANDPA!





MAY 27, AFTER 2 YEARS OF DATING ELIZA MARRIED TYLER AND HAD THE ONLY NICE DAY, WEATHER WISE, OUT OF THE WHOLE WEEKEND. IT WAS A WONDERFUL TIME AND THEY ARE A BEAUTIFUL COUPLE!


THEY HAD A PHOTO BOOTH THAT ALL THE GUESTS HAD TO GO THROUGH ON THEIR WAY INTO THE BACK YARD, AT THE RECEPTION, AND AFTER THEY HAD THEIR PICTURES TAKEN THEY PUT ONE OF THE PICTURE CLIPS INTO THE GUEST BOOK AND THE OTHER ONE THEY GOT TO KEEP. IT WAS TONS OF FUN!
