The past couple of weeks have flown right by.
Here's a little recap . . .
We took a quick (really quick) (too quick) trip to Utah. We left Friday after work, drove the 6 1/2 hour drive, got into Utah late, spent Saturday with family, left Sunday afternoon and got back into town super late Sunday night...just in time for work Monday morning. I would have LOVED to stay longer, but work beckoned, darn-it. It was however a much needed little trip and I'm glad we got to go.
We brought back one of Curtis' scooters from Utah. I think we are now down to just four scooters left in Utah. ha ha. A true scooter enthusiast indeed!
Here are some pics of our ride home:
Isn't wind energy awesome?!?
Pretty view:
beautiful sunset:
just us and the open road:
We've been fortunate enough to watch the Dinosaurs play their second and third soccer games. I can't get enough of how cute these kids are. I love this picture below. It shows perfectly the nature of the kids. You'll notice the boy on the left is doing his own thing, our goalie is inside the goal box facing the wrong direction, and our star player is running for the ball with her brother close behind. Plus, check out the background...true wild west fashion!
I took 2 days off of work last week to work on our house. I painted one of the downstairs bedrooms. I love it. It's a whole new room.
Here is the bedroom before:
And here it is with the new paint:
We helped milk a cow. Actually, Curtis helped milk a cow. I admired from a distance.
this one kept a close eye on me
My allergies are now in full swing. This will give you an idea of what my nights are like.
I've been sportin' these gems lately...Skechers Shape-Ups. Totally Awesome!
And lastly, I have been cheering on the Utah Jazz (which I will continue to do tonight)!! I will forever be a Jazz fan at heart.
I think this pretty much sums up the last couple of weeks of my life. Pretty exciting, eh.
So, what have you been up to?
I was wondering what you had been up to with no posts :-(
ReplyDeleteThose wind energy field are a dream of mine to photograph. I just surprised the DH with a super wide angle lens last week and it's perfect for landscapes like that. Ohhh man I need to come to Utah! Beautiful photos!
Yay for painting projects! Glad to see you updating--hope you're having a good week :-)
So good to hear from you!
ReplyDeleteBeautiful pictures! And I've had allergies too, no fun! I keep finding old tissues in my bed.
I've wondered about those shape-up shoes...maybe I should get me some!
And I'm sad to know you were so close to us and we didn't get to see you, but it sounds like a super quick trip! Next time stay awhile...at least long enough for a bbq!
Glad you are doing good!!
You have been busy! I love the color of the room. My rooms are all the same color, except the babies room is purple! AND it was Jared's idea!
ReplyDeleteOh, Adam has been cheering on the Jazz with all his heart. Looks like you guys have been keeping busy.
ReplyDeleteI want to be a cowboy baby! But seriously, Im not just quoting Kid Rock. I really do, Im jealous of you guys.
