well it is summer and HOT, love the warmth. Just returned to Utah from a lovely trip to Sun Valley Idaho area. Camping in the wilds of the Sawtooth National Forrest and nearly froze. Who would have known that the July 4th weekend would have been so cool. Now it is 90degrees plus. As for future summer plans: We have some great concerts coming up Brandi Carlisle at Red Butte Gardens Sunday July 11,

I have been taking the Enfinitea for two months now. I have not noticed any side effects but I also have not noticed any great weight loss. At least the scale does not show it. I lost 15 lbs the first few weeks and some inches. I suspect I have plateaued but last week I gained 2lbs. I have added to my work out lifting weights so maybe it is muscles mass. I guess the best part is it has given me

Well apparently I have a fan who wants an update ,or maybe a stalker?? I do worry it may be one of those crazy teens that were stalking my boy if that is the case you will be blocked. As long as you are friendly with respectful comments all are welcome. I do not tolerate hateful people that feel the need to insult others they have never met. There is too much hate, violence and mean angry people

The holiday is named after one or more early Christian martyrs named Valentine and was established by Pope Gelasius I in 496 AD. Why do we put so much emphasis on it? Why are those commercial that make us think we need flowers or Jewelry from Jared's? Layne mentioned that most men find the holiday hard to deal with.

Let us remember that the Christmas heart is a giving heart, a wide open heart that thinks of others first. The birth of the baby Jesus stands as the most significant event in all history, because it has meant the pouring into a sick world of the healing medicine of love which has transformed all manner of hearts for almost two thousand years... Underneath all the bulging bundles is this beating

It is hard to believe that my boy is turning 18 May 29th, and graduating from Highschool June 4th. It seems like yesterday when I recieved the call to pick him up. It was May 30, 1991 , I was getting ready for my evening shift at St marks hospital and Childrens Aid society called, the social worker Melba said "your baby is here, It's a boy come and get him" I just totally freaked out and told her

Nurses Day is forgotten at my place of employment, They make it Employee Appreciation Week so everyone is included, they do not take the time to Thank the many Nurses who work here. This year we do not even get a gift due to the economy.

I have probably had the worse experience ever trying to help out with Nate's soccer team, first there are two men who have to be in control and in the beginning they were not the coaches, they were his football coach's not the "Futbol" ones. The coach is a nice kid named Joey who really knows soccer but is a young return missionary with no organization skills. Layne and I had been asked to help

This is not the best video it is from my Cannon Power shot but Layne sang and played drums kinda like Phil Collins. I thought the world should hear him. Nate , Layne and myself all headed to the bands hideout near Jordenelle Reservoir near Park City on a snowy April Saturday. It was beautiful there, his band mate's home was big beautiful log home overlooking the lake. Nate played with his boy

We arrived at the High School to proceed when we were suddenly surrounded by big round men in the Oly Green with husky voices and arms that would not go down at there sides. It was frightening I think they were on a steroid high. Nate loved it and he starts with condition camp next week. He will then

Chris and Nate were suppose to be weeding this area but it looks to me that Nate is about to get a mudd fart from Chris. Can Tide clean that mud off? Maybe they should take up mud wrestling???

This is picture of our Snowball bush in our Front yard this May , My Brother Quint told me I could sell the stems when it was green to a florist. I think I prefer them all white and in bloom. It looked beautiful but when it was done we chopped it down hoping it will be just as pretty again in a couple of years!

Today is May Day or International workers day it is a day to celebrate our rights as employees and protest those corporate CEO's that make millions and do nothing. Most people living in the United States know little about the International Workers' Day or May Day.

It has been a cold spring soccer season but we have enjoyed the games. Nate plays on the SL Scorpions. He is either goal keeper or mid field man. The last game he played forward and he did well assisting in a goal. We bought him a keeper Jersey and since then he has not played the position, I guess that is Murphy's law. The season ends May 9th and try outs start May 21. It is our first year of

Unfortunatly this leaves us with a big empty spot. We can not email, balance the books or update family blogs. We hope to find a new Dell in the near future thanks to employee discounts and credit.

My boys went camping on Antelope Island last weekend with their Scout Troop. They camped with the bison near by and biked the trail around the island while enjoying the beauty of the great Salt Lake. Did you know the Island is haunted???This is perhaps one of the strangest tales in all of Utah. The Great Salt Lake covers more than 2300 square miles in the northern region of Utah and is one of

It seems that a few people reading my blog think Soap is a toxic substance. I suspect none of them have ever heard of a SS (soaps suds) enema given with the 3 H's (High, Hot and a Hell of a lot)! Soap is not toxic. It may cause stomach cramping and loose stool but it won't kill you. It is just a natural Laxative. It cleans you out! Now look at the laxative Miralax, it is made of Polyethylene

Nate was Amazing in his school play last night. He looked like he had a whole lot of fun. He was a cardsman and a crab boy. He sang loud and painted the roses red! way to go Nate! He is the nine of hearts and you can see his head next the Alice sign. He has three performance's total and he loves being on stage. He hopes someday to work for Disney maybe he can be in High School Musical 4!

Being a Mother of a Teen has brought back many memories. Mostly as to why I hated high school and living in Utah.#1 the discrimination against those of a different faith, #2 the games #3 the clicks. #4 The Utah Mormon attitudes and finally the unintelligent ones who only graduate because their parents did their homework.I never had patients for girls who play the victim either.I clearly remember
