urgent care

The big decision was finally made. I am working at an urgent care in North Mesa. I am enjoying it.

sprinkler, sprinkler come today

It was a HOT day in CO. Ian and Ava were playing outside in the sprinklers --- naked. Max came outside ready to strip down. But before that could happen, I had them race to get their swimsuits on. Then it was a party in the sprinkler. The water was actually really cold and I can't believe they even ran thru the water. They did. At least once. Then it was all about finding some sunshine to warm up in.

delta -- you will be missed!

Monday night baseball

Labor Day evening I headed to Orem to spend some time with Phil and his family. We went to a baseball game, played at the park, and watched fireworks!

the art of moving

It took my Mom and I about a month to dejunk, pack, clean, paint, and actually move from Delta to Midway. Thankfully, Mom had done a lot of work over the last 3 years. I am so grateful to my brothers, the Delta 1st Ward High Priest, and the Michie cousins that helped us load, drive, and unload the U-Haul.


Never ending boxes...




Updated bathroom...


Updated kitchen...




Cleaning off the old purple paint... It bubbled after priming it! Not a fun project.

Purple room is now white...


The lime green room. Mom's favorite color. I slightly nudged (or violently pushed) her that the color HAD to be changed!


Ah... better! A calm gray color. We also tore up the very old linoleum flooring and brown washed the original wood.


The room partially put together...

With the hall/closet...




The front room.




After all that painting -- I never want to see paint again.

Brianna's Wedding

My younger cousin, Brianna, was married this summer. My mom and I made a quick trip over to Price for the evening. We picked up my nieces, Abbie & Ella, on the way.



Definitely entertained by these two cute girls!

Aunt Gail and Uncle Stewart

Gus, Charlie, Amanda, and Trent

I made a quick trip up to Lyman, WY to visit the Barnes' family. Their little boy, Gus, is growing up and quite the character. We have fun playing with the balloon, watching Cars, and throwing the frisbee for Charlie.
