passing time


The days keep passing.


The kids and Ray just went for a bike ride to the park. We do love that about Utah. We can walk and ride are bikes on flat ground. If we were back home we would have to go up and down my hill, and well that is just not ok.

We have made an effort to be active everyday go for a walk or bike ride we would like to go swimming but have not gotten around to that yet. This has been fun for me and the kids. Of course they are active everyday but well I am not so much.

I also started a CNA program this month. It is a prerec. to my nursing program so I have to do it. It has been fun to go to class with Elizabeth.

We had a fun impromptu dinner/ gamenight last night. Everyone just kind of turned up. I made Potato Bar for us to eat and the grownups played Apples to Apples while children watched Harry Potter down stairs. It so reminded me of when Tammy and Todd lived in Eagle River and we would go over on Sunday nights and have dinner and Games. Only this time I am the big sister. It was alot of fun. Thanks for coming over.

Houses and Duplexes in the happy valley from Spanish Fork to Pleasant Grove. Looking for the one that is just right. We have seen many. I know that the right one is out there some where.
Wish us luck.

We are no longer lost.

We are in Spokane WA we got here on Tuesday night. We had no trouble crossing the with out the correct documents I know the lord was watching over us. I did drive the trailer across which I have never driven the trailer before so I pat my self on the back for driving all the way to Spokane and through the city.
We have had a great time with Great Uncle Al He is Rays Grate Uncle He just turned 89 and is as spry as any 70 year old. He took us the the YMCA to go swimming and the Kids got to climb a rock wall. It was a very cool YMCA.
We were going to be out of here at 9:30 this morning but Mac ran into a problem with his O2 bottles so we stayed so Ray could do the heavy lifting. We are hopeful to get into Utah some time tomorrow or maybe Really late tonight but probably not.
I am Looking forward to the driving part of our adventure to end and the living part to start. although you really don't stop living when you are driving. We are still doing school reading writing and math every day in the car. and we have got to talk about the changer landscape and climate and geography so that has been fun.
Uncle Al is a wonderful mentor he has lived a wonderful life serving in WWII and has an amazing amount of knowledge that the kids and us love to listen to. I hope we can spend more time with him before we go back to Alaska. He has away with the kids that is uncanny I don't know if I can put it into words but we love You Uncle AL Thanks for letting us stay with you.
