No matter the weather my kids LOVE to be outside. They cry at the window whenever Grandpa tries to mow the lawn, take out the garbage, winterize the house or do anything else outside. So then I am a push-over and put on their jackets & boots and send them out. I am sure Grandpa loves the company :) But after following Grandpa & Grandma around constantly for almost a year we will finally be moving out of
their house. The bank accepted an offer we made on a house in Monroe and if the inspection goes well, we get to move in mid-December. We will be about a half hour away. I think it will be perfect... we will get to see both the Salmon & Paxman grandparents on a somewhat regular basis, but not be in their constant hair.
We went down to Utah for Thanksgiving. And for the third year in a row sickness took over. Beforehand I planned a schedule for each day... and we definatly didn't feel up to doing everything on it. If we go again next year I am just going to plan a list of movies to watch and card games to play. But nobody was throw up sick (just fever, a serious cough, runny nose and ear infection). We did feed the ducks, go to "Jump On It", watch Robert play in a turkey bowl, swam at the legacy center, ate at Texas Roadhouse, hosted a Rook Tournament & went to culture night at the Kinghorns. Somehow the men didn't catch anythings so they went fly fishing and shooting as well. I am glad we went, it was fun although the kids whined a lot more then usual. Poor Korver couldn't touch Pepper without her crying (the top picture was a rarity for this trip)... I just think her body was aching and she was overly sensitive. She was still very sad to say goodbye.
