Ruth & Girls Stop In Phoenix

Ruth & Savannah & Evie stopped for a short visit
on their way from Mississippi back to Utah. What fun!
Of course, the doll room was a hit.





















Grandpa gave "root beer" to Savannah to go with
the Chinese cashew chicken. This is what Savannah
thought of this root beer & Ruth is smiling because she
is remembering getting "root beer" also.
















The girls enjoyed cakes they decorated with special
candles that Carole had brought. Evie just can't blow
hers out!
















Saturday was a family swim party with the traditional
hamburgers & spiral cut hot dogs for a BBQ dinner. I
took 2 pictures of the group in the pool- in the other
picture, only one person had eyes opened!
















Sydney & Elijah had fun on the slide.




















Don worked with Samuel in swimming from
him...
















to Grandpa.
















And there was also the traditional coin toss into the
pool. Grandpa explains the rules.
















Everyone gets coins- the kids loved the gold dollars.

Yuck, Yuck, Yuck!!!

I was just out getting the pool ready for the Saturday swim
party & brushing down the shallow end when I just couldn't
help myself. Even though I was alone, I started saying aloud
"Yuck, Yuck, Yuck!" What was the cause of this????
Thank goodness it was already dead! I put it in a container
of water just to show people! And it really WAS dead!!!
