Fun

Hiking

Our Spring weather has been very erratic. Warm, windy, rainy, and even a little snowy. But today was absolutely beautiful. The temperature was mild, the sun was shining, the wind was calm, and the sky was a gorgeous deep blue. When I woke up this morning, I thought it would be a good day for […]

Puppy Antics

After a fun, family weekend at the cabin, we got things ready to go home this morning. My brother was scheduled to arrive this afternoon as he returned for the summer, so we wanted to make sure everything was ready for him as well. My son and his wife recently got a new puppy and […]

Second Craft Fair

Today we went to the craft fair. I brought my dad’s photos, my son brought his candles, and his wife brought the tumblers she made. It was a small venue with many of the same customers as the fair in the Fall – mainly the residents of the immediate community. I was happy to sell […]

Ready for the Craft Fair

There is a craft fair at the cabin clubhouse this weekend. I signed up to bring my Dad’s photos again. My son learned how to make candles, which he has been wanting to do for a while. He made some different scents and will try selling them at the fair too. And his wife is […]

Laughing With Children

Today I went over to a friend’s house while she was taking care of her 2 grandchildren. They are ages 2 1/2 and 1 years old. I had met them before, but the last time the younger one was crawling. Now he was walking and very proud of it. His face just beamed as he […]

Disney on Ice

The other day my son asked if I wanted to go to Disney on Ice with him, his wife, and my granddaughter. It sounded like a pretty fun time, so I accepted his invitation. We went this afternoon. In the car was playing all Disney music and we sang along. I loved hearing my granddaughter […]

Middle Children

I am spending this weekend at the cabin with my son and 2 grandsons. Today when we left the house to go into town, the gaggle of turkeys practically met us at the door. They didn’t have much fear and got very close to us. When we arrived in town our first stop was for […]

Puppy Party

A friend of mine breeds standard poodles. She has had several litters of puppies at her house. I had heard about them and seen photos and videos, but had never been to her house to see them in person. She currently has 2 puppies about 6 weeks old. Part of raising them is to get […]

Nostalgia

I have been seeing little nostalgic videos and commercials for things I used to love to play with like the Easy Bake Oven, Barbies and Sit N Spin. They are funny and but bring back fun memories. Today I stopped by a store that sold all kinds of vintage clothing, records, and collectibles. There were things […]

Celebrating Sister

My sister has been house sitting for some friends in the mountains, so I haven’t seen her for a while. Her birthday was several weeks back and we didn’t have a chance to celebrate. She came to town today, so we decided to celebrate her. We went to get Mexican food with my sons and […]
