St. George Trip




Hello everyone!! I was informed today that I was slacking in the blog dept. I will keep the informant anonymous:)
I will admit, it has been too long. Let me catch you all up. On Aug. 16th, the kids and I took our 8 1/2 hour trek to St. George to see everyone. The motivation of our trip was family and friends of course, but the fact that Gilly, Summer, and Scarlett were coming into town was the biggest bonus. We only get to see them once a year and we make sure we enjoy every minute with them. The week was jammed pack!
Grandpa Kim and Grandma Shauna took us for a hike, the kids were posing for pictures the whole time:)Of course Grandpa thought that was just fine. Brady and Toree celebrated their birthdays. It was great fun!!!!!
Grandpa Dexter and Grandma Colleen spoiled Toree so much, that we are about to ship "sweet little snookums"(that's what G. Dexter calls her) back to them. We really enjoyed our time with them too!!!!
The rest of the week was spent with Gilly and the girls and the crowd that followed them:)So many of us look forward to their August visit that we all just gather where they are. Summer and Scarlett are growing up to be such great girls. Summer is making such progress too. She just turned 16. Can you believe that?
The kids saw those cute McAllister gals and had a blast with them.
Holly and Randy managed to squeeze some valuable time in with the kids and me too. I think they just tolerate me, because they love my kids:) You moms know just what I'm talking about.
I realized how hard it is to see everyone in such a short period of time. If we missed you, I am truly sorry. I will try to catch you next time. Not only do I have people to that I want to see, but the kids are old enough now to put in requests. Oh, and I have to do my Costco run while we're there. That's what happens when you move to Pinedale:)
Miss everyone in St. George, but absolutely love Wyoming. Everyone keeps reminding that I haven't spent a winter here yet, so it makes me wonder if my love for Wyoming will change? If the stories are true about the bitter cold winters, it is quite possible.
Before I sign off, I am trying a new venture. I will be selling Steel My Heart and Bumbles Watches. If anyone is interested give me a ring. I will have the websites available next time.
Take care all.

Hey Kel,

I guess Kerry knows me all to well...I am missing you guys more and more. Glad to see the new post. I can't believe that Summer is 16! It won't belong before we are saying the same thing about our kids. Wow! that is a scary thought. Can you imagine us with a 16 year old...never mind I'm going to block that thought out. Love ya...I'll be watching for the new school posts!!

Hi Kel
I Can't believe that Summer is that old. It sounds like the girls are doing good in London. I am so glad that you are liking Pinedale. I talked to Amee the other day and she said that you called her and said the it was snowing. I told her that you should do better than me because you are tougher. The snow is the only thing that i don't like about it up here. I wanted to cry on sat. when it started to snow. It is only Oct. But I am trying to manage. Your kids are getting so big. I bet that they are loving you home all the time. Mine sure are!
Keep in touch
Brooke
