Silly looking cows, I know, I could have worked on it another 2 weeks! But since I was donating my time, I decided to call it done.

I have been working on a mural for the new cheese factory, just down the road from us, in Midway. After 2 weeks I finally finished it yesterday. It is a huge wall up about 14 feet on scaffolding.

We spent three days volunteering at the Heber City Cowboy Poetry Gathering last week. It was fun but a lot of work. The best part were the free concerts and meeting lots of people. This is Cowboy Santa Val from Spring City.

Nephi had another Birthday Oct. 12th! They keep coming weather we want them or not. We celebrated at the football field while watching one of Chances games.

Our trip to Southern California was fun, but it always feels so good to come home. And sunny California wasn't so sunny, it was rainy & cloudy the whole time. We had a good time with Shuma at his 7th birthday party.

Went to the beach, Medieval Times, the LA Temple, old town San Diego and a ferry trip to Catalina Island. Spent a day in Zions Park on the way home.

September 2010

September was a busy month, with Swiss Days, a visit from Nephi's two brothers ( Norm & Bonnie and Ray & Charlotte), and a wedding where they rented Nephi's 38 Ford pickup for the reception.

And our 40th Anniversary~wow!

Our front porch~July 4th, 2010

I have joined an art association, so have been painting quite a bit. In July they held their annual Plein Aire Competition. You have to paint out of doors with in the week of the competition. I even sold a couple of paintings, so that was great.

June 2010

Kayson, Chynna and Hudson came to a visit grandma and grandpa for a week and a half, while Cassie and Ryan went to Mexico. We camped for a night at Camelot, where Fawn and Fara joined us. Ate at the Fillerup Ice Cream Parlor and went river rafting.

July 2010

Colorado Springs was the spot we choose for our little family reunion in mid July. All but Fawn's family, Dusty and Ryan were able to come so it was great fun to be together!

We had survivor challenges (with dead -candy-mice and raw deer meat), a trip to old town Manitoba Springs, cliff dwellings and the flea market..... and lots of food, swimming, hiking and games for all.
