When The Flood Comes...

When The Flood Comes...You Start Bailing!!!

At 9 pm Thursday night, Dad & I played Noah & wife
when we started bailing water from the wash room!
Yep, that's right, the old washer died & emptied the
whole tub of water on the floor of the wash room, the
food storage room, & the kitchen!!! Yuck! Soapy water
with bleach!! Not exactly what we had planned for
the end of our night. Thanks to dad for finishing the
clean up job. Friday morning, I asked our neighbor to
use her washer to rewash the clothes & she was nice
in letting me get that task done. Then Dad & I spent
a good part of the day checking out repair costs &
shopping. Because the washer is sooooo old getting up
close to 20 years), it seemed prudent to just get a new
one. End result...we found a brand new washer at
Costco with a $50 discount which was the same price
as the repaired one at the Sears Outlet (exact same
model number & style) and THEN found it for another
$50 off at the second Costco where we went to pick it
up because it was the demo!!!!
YES- another super shopping buy!!!

Utah Trip

We started our trip from Arizona to Utah with a couple
of STARS in the car (Savannah & Evie)!

















After an overnight stay in Vegas, we stopped at Mike &
Alissa's and got to see Michael on his very first day of school...
ever! This was one happy, happy boy!!! (Dad & Vespa make
it especially fun!)
















Mark, Mandy, & Caroline visited Ruth & made a
super-duper dinner. Here Mark shows off his
onion rings. YUM! In fact, the whole meal was YUM!





















And then on Monday it was Savannah's first
day of first grade. She picked out a special
outfit. How cute!




















It was also time of the Iron County Fair. Savannah &
Evie fit right in with their hats, boots, & denim.
















The fairgrounds were right by the Manti Temple.
















Savannah, Grandma, Evie.





















And we saw a dog as big as Evie! She sure didn't
want to get very close to that dog!!

















We had fun making ice cream cones for the dolls.

















And at the Taylor's, all the girls decorated tee's for their
dolls-Evie, Sarah, Alice, Savannah, & Anna.

















And I got to see Alice with her very special & fancy
outfit for her very first day of school ever!
