Delaney & her new glasses

Our cute little Delaney found out like a week ago that she needs help seeing. Jessica said the school sent her home saying that she didn’t pass the eye test we was all very suspired because she never has said she can’t see.  I guess it goes to show you, you really need to have your kids eyes checked yearly. I think the glasses make her look so smart……..;o) I asked Jess if they have talked to her about when she’s at school that she can’t let anyone try them and she said oh yes, we have a new saying in our home . (If they're not on your face then they're in the case) …LOL I told Jess only she could come up with something like that.

One more thing……..Our really good friends here in Heber moved to Corpus Christi Texas this summer. Michelle sent me this picture of the gas price there can I just say we are getting RIPED OFF we are $3.05 up here.

I just have one quetion......

WHY IS ALL THE GOOD FOOD BAD FOR YOU........;o(





All my life my weight has been a struggle for as long as I can remember. I think I have tried every diet out there and more and it seems that once I do one and do good I think I can just go back to eating what ever I like. NOT!!!!!!


I can only be good so long and then I brake on Thursday night. It was the first time in a week Jim and I had really seen each other so he asked if I would like to go to Macaroni Grill for dinner and of course I could not say No....... I think that has to be our most favorite place. The bread and the shrimp pasta is to die for. So yes I'm going to feel guilty all weekend. oh but it was so good......;o)

Grandkids Are Great........

Jim And I went down to Payson on Thursday night to watch Nicholas play flag football it was great. He's a go getter and did really well. His team won the game. It was nice to see the kids it had been awhile with work and school, Jessie's little family stays really busy. It's hard to believe that Nicholas is going to be 9 in November....time flies.

We also wanted to see our little Miss Delaney. It was her 6th Birthday on the 11th and we weren't able to see her because they were down at Katie's that weekend. So we needed to get down there with the goods (presents) .......lol. She's loving school, she's in kindergarten and doing great. Delaney got an electric toy guitar from her parents and was rocking out with grandpa! She is a hoot!

Grandpa also got a new toy a couple of weeks ago and the grandkids got to ride in it!

Empty Nest ????

Boy if this is what it's like to have an empty nest, then I dont know if I like it.  I still have Emily at home but she's not home much, she has school and then works at night and if she's not doing that then she's with her friends. Don't get me wrong I love that she's doing really great in school and work and she's having a really great time with her friends it' just really quiet around here.

It's really bad when Jim goes to work at 4 and I'm just here by myself all night so Ive been going down to my mom's about one to two times a week, helping her with things and just hanging out. It has been nice to hang out with her and chat. Today I went down and gave her a manicure it was nice to do something that made her feel good. I really dont know how she spends so much time by herself and not be able to get out of the house when she wants to. I know she talks about how much she misses having everyone come by to visit. She just loves to look at everyone's blogs and likes seeing how all the grand kids and great grand kids are doing, but I know she would just love to see everyone in person.

I've also been hanging out with Lindsey and doing little crafty things. We seem to always start projects this time of year.  It's always fun to come up with new projects, especially since Christmas is just around the corner! 

Well this should be very interesting.......;o)

So I guess I'm going to try this blogging thing.  So here it goes.

Just an update on all the goings on around here. I'm working at the local grocery store-- Days Market.  I do the receiving and the pricing of all the direct deliveries. So yes, I'm sorry I'm the one that is raising the prices. I really like my job and the people I work with. Jim is still working for Heber City and he also has a security company that is doing really well. I don't see him much but we hope it will pay off down the road.  It gets a little lonely at night but I have my Izzy to keep me company. Yes I didnt think I would be one of those people that has a pet that becomes the queen or king of the house.... well we have a queen. I dont know what I would do without her at night even though she just lays around and sleeps most of the time.

This weekend Jim & I both had the weekend off and had been planning to meet up with Lindsey & Brandon to paint my mothers (Grandma Winnie) shed but as you can all guess we didn't get it done--thanks to the weather. I just have to say I really HATE winter and you will be hearing me say that for the next 5 to 7 months. Since, we were unable to paint we did things around grandma's house that needed to be done for the winter. It was great!  Grandma really enjoyed having us there and getting to see baby Hannah. Lindsey also brought lunch--- Mexican Chicken Chili it was really good. It was fun sitting around the table and visting and chatting with Mom.

Even thought I hate winter I do love the hoildays I love spending time with my family and getting together and having a good time.

Well I don't wont to get to long winded in the first post, so stay tuned, I'm sure there will be more later.
