Some Ketchup

I know, I know...where have you been blog updater? It's been way over a month! I have been feeling like I had nothing to blog about, that I was just living life and it was the same day after day routine. Then Irealized I do have stuff to share! SO, I have some Ketchup work to do. At a wedding in the Mt. Timpanogus Temple, Utah with dear friends, and...see the pretty wedding dress sleeves I made for her!
Spring Bountiful baskets...yum!!....but what's that!!??? Oh, the weird things you get in each and every Bountiful Basket that you have no idea what they are!! This weird feature is a Daikon Radish & a yam. The radish was the most delicious, mild, tastey thing I've ever had...the yam- no way-ick!!
For Sale

Yep really. I hate those two little words but the time has come. Our 4 years are up. That seems to be about how long we stay in one place. We have loved you house and you have loved us back. We pray for a family who needs you and will love you too.

Happy Birthday & a weird sickness

Happy Birthday Missy! Lots of cake, birthday parties & surprises....Sadly, just a few days after a wonderful birthday, she got very, very sick. We're still not really sure what it was, but she slept for a week straight except to go to the Doctor 4 times, get lots of antibiotics, tylenol with codine, 4 shots and eat her Raspberry sugar-free jello. She lost 15 lbs. and couldn't swallow or talk and was extremely tired. They "think" some other type of Strep. Now 2 weeks later, she is back to her regular peppy self. Thank you to all who sent flowers, the kind doctors when we kept showing up sick, patient nurses who gave her shots in her cute tan bum, friends who decorated our front door with sweet notes, brothers & boy friend who asked her lots of funny questions while she was "loopy" and wanted to post her hilarious answers on face book but were kind and didn't, friends who tried to text her with sweet texts (sorry you got loopy junk back), 3 am blessings, phone calls and prayers from concerned family especially dad & grandmas. We are very, very glad she's well.

Eagle Scout Court of Honor

We now have our 2nd Eagle Scout and we are very, very proud. Congratulations!

And Missy has her Eagle Scout too!

The "Almost" Stake Champs...

Almost Stake Champs......it was a painful over-time, buzzer-beater loss.
#8 - Yellow is mine

The 3 amigos who carried the team and the oldest church ref ever!

It was your typical church basketball game. We play 2 games back to back for the Stake championship because the other team doesn't want to play the following week...so exhausted, bad reffing, neck in neck the whole way til the last second, I mean 2 seconds...I really mean 4 seconds then lose by 1 basket...wild throw! Sadley there won't be next year for #8...

Happy Birthday!
