5K walk

Jenny and Michelle did the 5k run/walk last saturday the 26th of June. They did the walk just short of 1 hour. They did real good. Gotta go for now will get more in on another day.

water park

We had the oppurtunity to go to Cowabunga bay water park that is in Draper about 1 week ago. They have a lazy river and a kiddy pool next to the lazy river. They have about 10 slides there. They have 2 big water buckets that dump lots of water out of them. It was lots of fun.

Name Hill

I had the opportunity yesterday to go to Marbleton, Wyoming for work. And on the way home I stopped at a point of interest in Wyoming, called name hill. Jim Bridger's name is engraved in the hill. I really enjoyed stopping and seeing that, so I had to share with everyone.

Headstone

When we went up to Elwood for Amy's mission farewell, Russell and Sharon told us about Jami's headstone and that wee needed to go and see it. It is beautiful, so I had to share a couple of photos of it with everyone.

birthday

Well we are getting closer to two birthdays in our family. Jordan and Nicole. Jordans is the 29th and Nicoles is the 31st. We are having parties this weekend and then next week Jordan will be going on his first week long camp with the Boy Scouts (exciting). He will be getting home on friday night and then on saturday June 5th, Jordan will be getting ordained a Deacon and Karsten will be getting baptized. What a busy day. Also Jenny's parents will be getting into town on June 4th for the activities on the 5th.

Over this last rain/snow storm. We didn't only get the moisture on the outside of the house, we also had it on the inside as well. Apparently we have a bad spot on the roof, which is allowing the rain to go through the roof and come through the ceiling into the kitchen area. Yea, I got alot of work ahead of me. (what fun)

new toilet

Well we put a toilet in our laundry room. And today I hooked up the water. Wow, that was enjoyable. I had to run it behind the water heater and the furnace. That was fun. I hope that the photos give it justice, on how fun it was to put the water line in.

Old bridge and new bridge

For all of you who remember the tracks out in front of the house, here is a photo of the railroad ties that was left in place at the drive approach of the old bridge. I just remember stories about the railroad tracks, not the rails. I don't even remember the rails there, but they have become exposed and so I had to share the photo. I hope that all those that do remember, has good memories of them.


Here are a few photos of the new bridge as of Friday May 7th. I was in Brigham City working and so I took a little trip up to the hospital and Mom was just released. Dad and Mom was in the car just getting ready to leave to go home. So I went home and waited for them to get home. Carl was out at the corn pit loading feed for the cows, so I visited with him for awhile. When Dad and Mom got home, we visited for awhile, and then I helped Dad cut some wood. Yes, it is cold enough that they are still having a fire in the stove. It's the first part of May, and still cold enough for a fire, that is sad. Anyway, I also took some photos of how the bridge is coming along.













I am pretty sure that they will be getting mud on the deck of the bridge this week. They are coming along really good on the bridge. As you can see, the water has been turned into the canal.






So if anyone wants to jump off the old bridge into the canal, this summer will most likely be the last time that you can do it.
