It's a Little Warm In St. George

Hi!Well to start out with my blog today, let's just say I try to spend alot of time indoors, a couple of days ago we hit 114 degrees, I go outside in the morning hours, but after it hits noon, I try to stay inside.Still better than the snow in the winter! I'd much rather live here.
Last weekend we got to go to Salt Lake, our Rayden was baptised, it was so great to see him, along with every one else who was there. We all went to Arctic Circle afterwards and had an ice cream cone. All of the grandchildren that were there are growing up so fast, our Jeffery now has a low voice and he is 14years old, where did all that time go?It's amazing when you don't see them daily, how much more grown up they are every time you see them.
We talked to Pat while we were in Salt Lake, he said he thought we might as well take the blue truck back to St.George with us, cause he wasn't using it. ( we had given the truck to Pat a few months ago, thinking maybe he could use it to drive back and forth to work)Me and Jeff talked it over, trying to decide what we should do. There are just the 2 of us at home and we don't need 3 vehicles, soooo after talking it over, Jeff decided he wanted to keep the truck. Then we decided that maybe Shane and Anngee could use our Durango, as you know they let us live rent free in thier basement for 6 months, so we thought it would be nice if we could kind of show our appreciation for thier kindness, by extending a kindness back to them. They seemed to like the idea, so they traveled to St.George with us, and helped us drive by taking one of the cars for us. Jeff and Shane went in the truck, and Anngee drove my car. And so they spent all last Sunday on the road going to St.George and then back to Salt lake. But they did get the Durango, I think it will help them get around on those super snowy days. And it was fun to see how happy they were to get it.
Rae(Jessie and Kimi's oldest daughter) came and spent the night with us last Tuesday, we had so much fun with her, we went to the water park, and had fun fixing some of her favorite meals , and she played nintendo(the old games, cause that's what we have) and she drew us many pictures, and left sweet little notes for us all over. The next day she was so sweet to help us keep Savey entertained, she even played nintendo with him. Rae is so good with children younger than her, Savey was disappointed when he came back on Thurs, and Rae wasn't there. On Wed me and Jeff took Rae to the dollar store,and let her pick out some things(We are such big spender's, right?) But she seemed to enjoy that, then we went to Mickey D's for lunch, we had fun getting to spend time with Rae.
Yeterday was our anniversary, we have been married for 36 years. We laughed last night at how much we have changed in those 36 years, when you consider that I'm over weight (alot) and he's got alot of gray hair, and we're sitting there laughing cause we had both taken out our teeth, and thought WOW after all these changes and all these years, we still love each other, more than ever. We are so blessed!! We went out to dinner early at 5:00 p.m., then we went to Wal-mart ans bought a movie to watch. We bought the movie "Australia". What a good movie , it's long but so good, we both liked it very much.
And so life just keeps going ,we still do alot of indexing, and I still love to play my facebook games, our animals keep us entertained, and the sun keeps shining in good old Dixie. Our love and prayers are with Gary and Annette and thier family, we KNOW he will be okay, he's a good man, he's going to get through everything with flying colors. Take care till next time!

Of course you went out to eat "early." That's what old people do right? J/K We are extremely appreciative for the Durango and have been having lots of fun with it. But wow what a day that was going down to get it! You were great company though, especially when we pawned the kids off on the guys! Enjoy your warm weather. On a sidenote Shane got back this afternoon safe from his trip.

Happy Anniversary, I meant to call you on the actual day but I forgot after I got off work, sorry. I thought every one in St. George did the early bird special, being the city of old people and all, it was probably very crouded maybe you should have waited until 6:00 when all the rest of the old people were at home in bed!!! J/K. I think people who live somewhere that is hitting 114 are CRAZY, that is why it is all old people in St. George they are all to senial to realize how hot it is.
