Last day of Summer

 Friday was a school day.  It is one of those work days that we can do at home, or go to the school.  I opted for home.  I started the day off at the hotworx.  I am in resting mode. 

Nick is going to a Cabin in Island Park with some friends.  He had to get his best shirt on to go.  CinnaBron.  He almost didn't take the Cinnabron shirt, but it is much too great to leave home  

I found this cute pic of Nick.  :)  He was so cute.

Where did these go?  I haven't seen them in the Costco for years.  I also found this pic while I was looking for something else

Awe...Isn't this the sweetest?  Miss them being small

On the way to drop Nick off for his ride up there, we had to stop and get some Monsters.  He needed to take 8 so he would have two each day.  

After I dropped Nick off, I went and got some Reflexology.  Love it.  It is easy to get an appt, and they don't talk to you.  Just massage, and quiet with relaxing music.  Kindof looks sketchy but it is the best.  

Decided to go to Zeppes which is just up the street from the massage place.  I just love it and don't usually go when I'm up that way.  Love the pink one

Decided to try the pretzel.  They have added it to the menu. I would recommend it and the cheese sauce.  It is my last day of summer so I needed to live it up.  What a great day. 

Spanish Oaks and Random

 I don't do much other than golf it seems based on my pictures I take.  I feel if I take the pics, I should at least post them...:)  Last Friday, Kent, Sandra, Ted and I went to Spanish Fork to golf at Spanish Oaks.  

Beautiful course at the base of Spanish Fork Canyon.  It was hot but we got there early so we were off before the real heat started. 

Sign on the course.  Good advice for all.  Savor the moment

That's also my new shirt

This is me, taken by Tom at Riverside.  Not the best form for sure

Michelle at Mulligans.  Much better form. She's in the thick grass...It is a bugger to get out of that

My other new shirt.  

Skederos Golf Scramble at the Eaglewood

 My friend, Kim, works at the Greek Orthodox Church in Slc.  They were hosting a Golf Scramble for Greg and Anothony Skederos who have died.  They attend that church.  Greg and Anothony Skederos both died and are from Bountiful.  Greg Skederos owned the Mandarin and Anthony was an ER doc.  (fun Fact)

She had her son in law and his friend back out at the last minute so she asked Kent and me to fill in at the last minute.  We are good fill in friends.  

It was bright and early on Saturday.  Carts were all lined up ready to go.

Maureen, Kent, Kim and Sandra

We found carts for 6B and our name and loaded up.  We also had Greek Cookies and Coffee if you wanted.  

We played a scrambal which means everyone hits, then we move our balls to the best ball, and hit again.  We get a score as a team on each hole.  It is suppose to make the play much faster.  We did take some of my shots as the best ball.  

It was a beautiful morning at the Eaglewood in North Salt Lake

We did ok.  Scrambles usually have VERY low scores, since every shot is usually pretty good.  We scored a 69.  We didn't win for sure, but thought it was decent.

Scorecard

We had a lunch after with bbq pork, coleslaw, beans and some great greek potatoes.   That is my new shirt that I got at Sun Hills Golf course.  

They also gave way prizes and a raffle. Sandra was the big winner of a sleeve of golf balls

Great day of golf and fun.  

Jack falls in love with Cats

 I got a text the other night. from a family in Alaska.  They said that Jack is so happy and he asked for wings so they had wings for dinner.  They also said he is so sweet.  

They sent this picture.  Then, they asked if I could help them with Jack's Cat Phobia because they have 4 cats.  umm nope I can't help with Cat Phoias because I'm not a fan of cats either.

Then she sent this video

This is just a video from Jack's mission that I uploaded here randomly and decided to leave it 

She sent these pictures of the cats.  They are NOT cute cats for sure.  

Not sure about the cats, but what about the clothes hanging all over in the back?  Jack said they were remodeling.  :)

I love that she sent these pics to me.  Love that someone is being so kind to Jack in the mission.  Jack said the lady reminds him of Me and Michelle.  Not sure that is a compliment.  He didn't say why but I do know it isn't the cat lover in us.

She then told me that Jack needed some new pants for winter.  She said he has gained weight and so needs a bigger size.  ok, I'll get on that one.

She said her daughter would crochet Jack one of these for the wintertime so he doesn't freeze.

She said Jack ate 20 wings and two diet cokes.  

Look at the price of cheese in Alaska

Love people are taking such good care of my missionary  

I've lost count of the days - Jack's Email from Alaska

 Hello Friends and Family! Well it Is yet another exciting week being a missionary. This week was pretty mid and kinda sucked. But we are still grinding out here and doing our best but let's get into it. 

Tuesday 7/29: Today for P day we all went fishing in this guys lake that is In his backyard pretty much. Unfortunately none of us caught anything so it was not a very exciting fishing day. We went and played spikeball for 4 hours and then after p day ended we went to the Barbers and I had crab legs for the first time and they were so good.

Wednesday 7/30: Today was lots of service and nasty service. I swear everyone in Alaska just is a hoarder and it's pretty gross sometimes. This house we went into just smelled awful and it was actually so disgusting. But we had dinner on the air force base with the Bowlbys who made some pretty good food so that was worth it. Then we taught our boy Wesley that night. 

Thursday 7/31: we had to wake up at 4 am and take the ZLs to the airport today and that was rough they are in a trio with a guy who just got out here so we were In a trio for the day and we were pretty tired to say the least. We then had to pick them up and they didn't get in until 11 pm at night. But we had dinner at the Dean's so that was a fire meal so worth it. 

Friday 8/1: more service today at 9 am at another insanely gross house. Which didn't surprise me. I've never wanted to puke more in my life. But we had dinner at the McMickells house today and they fed us salmon and it was the best tasting salmon I've had so it was actually gas. 

Saturday 8/2: today was pretty ineffective we went and walked around to talk to people and my comp was going through I'm pretty sure he's hecka depressed so prayers up for him. He went and starting like punching trees and getting all mad so I had no idea what to do. He then went and like shook a tree til it fell over and it almost landed on me and that would've hurt. But after all that we went to the Champlins for dinner and they are my favorite family for sure and I think I ate about 50 wings that night. They also made me hold their cat which was terrifying. But again worth it for the Diet Coke. 

Sunday 8/3: 7 hours at the church was very very long. But we made it somehow. We had dinner at the Cliffords and they are so funny and the food they make it also so fire. 

Monday 8/4: lots of planning today and some meetings which felt like forever. We had dinner at the McMickells again and I got flamed for the lack of movies I've seen so that was hilarious. But I told him it's not as bad as it seems lol. 

Anyways there were many good and bads throughout this week but we pushed through. Please email me back I love to hear from every single one of you guys!!!
