The beginning of the Playhouse!!!!!

 Here is Grampa with Dan, the handyman in the playhouse....
 Grampa said, "I'm too tall to be in the playhouse".   I said, "Grampa, he hasn't put the roof on yet!
This gives you an idea of where the playhouse is.   Can you see the swing set and slide?
 It's being built in between two trees.
This is the handy tool that is helping build the playhouse....

The beginnings of our new firepit and playhouse....

 This is the beginning of our new fire pit...
 I bet you can't wait to come and join us around the camp fire!
 Looking west...
Looking east at the playground...this square cement slab is where the "Cousins Clubhouse" will be.
 Lookin' rather cozy!!
Grampa put his stamp on the firepit.
 Not quite finished, but almost
 Putting up the wall...
 We decided to go with 3 brick high instead of 4...
 The beginning of the wall...

Fun Weekend in Wyoming!

 On our way to Wyoming, we were stopped on the freeway for over an hour because of this fire.
 A semi carrying a trailer of new cars caught on fire.
 We stopped at Martin's Cove where Glenn's brother, Charles, and his wife Barbara are serving a mission.
 One of the statues dedicated to the 4 brave young men who carried the pioneers across the Sweetwater River.
 We stopped in Custer, Wyoming to have lunch at this quaint little restaurant....famous for their pies.
 Renee, Vicki and me enjoying our icecream cones.
 Glenn and Larry walking to the monument at Mt. Rushmore....
 You'll have to ask Glenn or Vicki what they were talking about!!!
 Glenn and I standing in front of the monument.
 Ricky and Glenn at Mt. Rushmore.   I don't know who the guy in red is? 
 Hey, Larry, you're supposed to be looking at the monument like everyone else!!!
Getting ready to watch the video on the making of Mt. Rushmore.  It was awesome!!!

I have had a new friend in my kitchen for about a month now.   I'm just getting around to posting her picture.  Her name is Lizzy the Lizard.  Hannah made her for me.  I think she made it so I won't be lonely when I'm baking all day.  I promised Hannah that Lizzy would stay in this red basket, and she hasn't left.  I love Lizzy.  But most of all I love Hannah and Lucy, Leah, Annie, Ryan, Noah, Hannah T, Sam,  Belle,  Emma, Isaiah, Enoch,  Baby David, Joseph...Luke...Connor and baby Ty!(:))

Brigham City Temple Open House--Labor Day

 It was a beautiful day!  It took us 2 hours and 45 minutes from start to finish, but it was well worth it!!
 An upward look at the Angel Moroni!
 The Temple is as beautiful inside as it is outside.  
 Across from the Temple is the Brigham City Tabernacle.
Viewing the two buildings at the same time is just breath taking!!
