Cache Valley Getaway

Day One - Logan River Golf Course
Rain, rain, go away. Nope... This is us in our cart looking happy. We spent our time bonding and laughing at the ladies next to us. Despite the weather and taking a day off work to just sit around in the rain, it was fun. I learned a couple of things... you are never to old to enjoy the company of a good friend in less than optimal situations and you are never too old to enjoy a little Mary Jane. I will leave it at that!

Day Two - Logan Golf and Country Club
It was a little cool this morning, but the sun was shining and the sky was clear. We were so fortunate to be paired up with a couple of women from our own association and they were fun to play with. I have been lucky so far and have not suffered through a tournament golfing with a couple of bitchy blue-hairs! It was a 2 person scramble and Holly and I ham and egged it. We ended up shooting an 87, so with our handicap we took second place - net.

Bits & Pieces

• It feels like fall.
  

• Today was the first day of the Cache Valley Getaway. This is a 2 day golf tournament for ladies... we were rained out. Seriously? It hasn't really rained during the day for almost 2 months.

• It's so nice to have friends that you can spend 2 hours with in a cart in the golf course parking lot, hoping to hell the rain/hail will stop so you can play golf. Giggle, giggle...

• Jill got a job today. She will be working part time at Hastings Bookstore. This was also her first day of college. She was bored!

• Got to drive a Hummer. I want one. Leather seats that warmed my butt after a long day in the cold. Sweet.
  

• My kids love having their grandma here to watch them while I work. Grandma is so "nice".

Lola's Room

I would love to have more time to do crafts because I love doing them. Thankfully someone will give me a reason to make the time and get 'r done!
This is Lola, my new niece... isn't she just adorable?

With the help of my dear friend, Melissa, I did a couple of things for Lola's room.

Kirkle was right...

My boss mapped out a really beautiful and fun 4-wheeler ride. Justin and I finally got together with Matt and Kristy and went up to Franklin Basin to check it out. As far as I know, this was a first for Matt and Kristy and let me tell you, it was quite the adventure!

From one extreme to the other... The trails were awesome, flat and smooth to steep and rocky. The weather was also awesome, sunny and warm to wet and cold. We were hailed on hard just off the summit! We had a great time and it was fun to share our new-found hobby.

Words... I cannot find them.

Big Foot

Last night I noticed Jace's ankle was all swollen. As far as I know, he hadn't hurt himself and there weren't any puncture wounds to suggest he had been stung. I gave him some Motrin and he slept soundly through the night.

This morning when he woke up it was red, hot and much larger than the night before. My mom and JLowe suggested I take him to the doctor... I probably would have waited another day or so, but they had me all worried. The doctor didn't know what caused it (she suspected a bite of some kind) and put him on an antibiotic to be on the safe side.

You wouldn't have known anything was troubling the kid, he didn't complain and continued to walk and run like always. He did however, scratch it quite a bit and he wouldn't let anyone, but me, touch it. Hopefully, we will see some improvement in the next couple of days.

Tomatoes

I like tomatoes. Cherry tomatoes galore and nice, big, juicy beefsteak tomatoes. This is the best time of year for tomato sandwiches. Try this...


Toast
Lg. sliced tomato
Spray butter
Garlic
Salt & Pepper

Yum!
