Even More Love


What do neighbors love MORE than listening to peacocks?


Listening to them up close in their very own trees for 2 whole days!

Who wants to live by me?

Neighbors Love This

Oh listen to the lovely background music, compliments of Goose & Peacock. Our neighbors love us. If you listen close you can hear the feathers rustling.

Dillon's Feet

Dillon has been having a lot of pain in his feet, for months. So we went to see his doctor at Primary Children's in Salt Lake City. They took x-rays and showed us what the problem was.

Both of Dillon's feet look like the 'High arch' picture. The navicular bone is too high. The doctor recommends surgery, of course, to lower the navicular and fuse it to the ankle bone. It would just be a day surgery, but the recovery is 6 weeks of NO walking or weight on Dillon's feet, at all. The doctor suggested doing 2 separate surgeries so Dillon could just use crutches, but Dillon hates that idea. Going under the knife Twice! Dillon is scheduled to have his surgery on Aug 6th. I will take work off and be home to wheel him around!

It was awesome to see Michele. But, she has my camera.
I went to Sex and The City. We took pics. But I don't have them.
I saw the Pipe Line. I don't have pictures to prove it.
I swam at Chena Hot Springs. I can't prove that either.
There was a cute squirrel there too. I can't show you.
Michele has a nice dog. You can't see him either.

Another New Baby

Yesterday we had our first Shetland Lamb born. She's so tiny. She is the size of a small cat.
Her mom is dumb, so we have to pin her down to let the lamb eat.
Fun Fun!

Is This A Joke?

Seriously, what is up with our weather?! I just acquired a sun burn on Sunday. Then we get a blizzard today? It has been snowing heavily for the past 3 hours. MAKE IT STOP!
I just watched the 10 o'clock news. They said Rigby got 5 inches of snow!

Free Peepers



Somehow we seem to end up with extra animals. We were in CAL Ranch Saturday and they had just received a new shipment of ducklings and chicks. 4 of the ducklings weren't doing very well and the associate had the heat lamp to close to them. So James let her know. She argued a little, then she decided we could take them for free if we thought we could save them. Anything was better than letting her continue to slowly cook them. Of course we said "Yes",very rarely do we say "No". The ducklings were doing much better out of the heat. But unfortunately one was too bad and didn't last. For now they are living in a bird cage in out basement. We don't even know what kind of ducks they are. Just domestic ducks.

I Turned 29!


Yesterday was my 29th Birthday, again. I love how it just keeps repeating. So the day started out nice, but later the weather turned into a blizzard. I received phone calls and emails from family. Of course I had some cake, double chocolate! Dillon saw the cake and said "What? You're not 29!" What does he know.
I made a wish and blew out all the candles, but the snow is still here.

I Am In Love With A McDonald's Girl

I found a few more pictures and a lot of them have Nanette in them. Unfortunately, they tell a sad story. Here is Nan at work.

It paid ok, but not enough for a real home.
















Let's not be confused, Nan lived in the Newpaper Donation dumpster and ate at the refuse dumpster. That's one thing she taught me, "Don't sleep where you eat."


And here she is getting ready for a night at the Galleria.
