PATIENCE!

I know that living without certain things that you are use to can be a good or bad thing, but this no yard, 2 dogs, no dog door stuff is down right the pits!!! My life is going across the street to the one house in our cove that has a yard with the dogs at least 2 times a day. The house is empty and up for sale and the owner has told us that we can "use" the grass for the dogs. We are extra good about cleaning up the messes that happen. Take Baxter for instants...he loves the grass and he moves very slowly especially in the summer when it is HOT! so getting him to come home when I want him to is almost impossible without a TREAT involved. One night he had decided that he wasn't coming at all and sat down and looked at me like,"WHAT' I'm not moving for awhile. Jazz is the good one that stays up with me, that is because she is nosey and want to know everything as it happens. The 2 little girls next door like to come out and play with them and that helps me get the dogs home sometimes because they want to be with the girls. Scott says "soon" we'll have a yard, but until then, Marissa sorry! I know that this is a small moment in the big picture but some of us have no patience. Yes, that would be me!

Busy summer

I can't believe that it is July already! My how the time flies when you are going through junk, planning a yard, trying to keep up with all the summer fun. I know that this week is girls camp and Scott is going to go and talk on Friday night. He has been busy with church and a lot of weddings, missionary's coming and going. We are getting settled in our new home and it feels more like ours every day. Some of the things about it are so wonderful like, the door off the garage that we use to come in (love it) the view out the front window is very beautiful of the mountains of Snowbird, my oven that is new and bakes my chocolate cake perfect and the wonderful dishwasher.We have a really cute neighbor that has 3 little girls and they love the dogs so when I am out walking them they love to come along. I really miss the old house and the comfort that I had in our ward but I know that I can see the people that I love, just not on Sunday. that is the hard part for me! We'll I have some more pictures of the cute faces in my life...

June Birthdays

June is a busy month just like September is in our family...Marissa starts us out with her birthday first than Sydney, Sonrisa and Alisa is the last on the 26th of the month. We had a family dinner on Sunday to celebrate all of them. We had fun getting together and eating, laughing and my favorite is watching the girls play together. Grandpa got the girls some hot wheels to ride down in our huge basement that isn't finished. I think that they had fun...we also took them out side and my favorite was when Jared got on one and rode it down the driveway...my camera was out of battery's at that moment...it was funny. These are some of the pictures from the month and the parties that happened. Thanks all of you for coming!
