Labor Day Weekend

:Labor Day weekend started with the Brighton High School Football game.  Then Saturday came around and I found myself playing golf  in Layton.  It was soo HOT.  Like HOT.  100 degrees hot.  I decided it would be fun to play even though I would be sweating like crazy.  One thing is he would sweat too...

So, I pulled out my new Golf skirt I bought a while ago...Abi said a skirt was the way to go.  I also pulled out my new Vans shirt (I bought after playing golf before and not having a good shirt to wear...).  And I was off.  We played at Sun Hills golf course above Hill Air Force Base.  






This is the skirt I wore.  Abi said it was good.  I hope so.  

Sunday am Michelle and I decided to finally go on a hike we have been talking about for years...We went up to Cecret Lake in Albian Basin.  We went up to Albian on one of our field trips this summer and wanted to do the hike.  We did it.  




This Lake was the destination.  You can't swim in it, but it is absolutely beautiful.  







This part was a bit more difficult.  I had no idea this hike was this hard.  I thought it as easy but I made it and actually survived to tell about it.  





I looked it up and it says it is strenuous.  Oh, thats just what I needed for the first hike after my ankle surgery...

Then I went to see a friend and he suggested since I survived hiking in the am, we go to Donut falls on a  hike that evening.  Ok I was all in since I have wanted to go to Donut falls too.  He said it was easier than Cecret lake.  Cecret lake is about as hard as I can do.  



So I hiked up Donut falls and at the top there are quite a few rocks for the waterfall thing.  I didn't make it since we were almost out of daylight and I was kindof tired after my other hike in the am.  

But it was a super fun day and weekend and its only Sunday...


Bountiful loses to Brighton

 

We are still going to the Bountiful High School football games.  Nick doesn't really need babysitting anymore, (at least I don't think so) but it is fun and Jack likes to go.  Bountiful played Brighton this week.  I have never been to Brighton High School.   They are an old school and I was surprised at how good they were.  Nick was writing stuff down for the coach.  He is 74 and you can see him carrying a clipboard.  He was very important.  I think he probably liked it better than just standing there.  
















Thats a great pic of him, but you can't see his clipboard...













Jack and his friend Tony watching the game.

Jack

 Michelle invited Jack to come over to a water party at her house for Some kids at her house.  Here 's Jack.  He is so handsome. She sent me this pic of him.  












McKenna Graduates from College

 McKenna my niece graduated from UVU in public health (something like that).  Due to Covid the graduation ceremony was a drive by celebration.  So, Nick and I wanted to go.  We met Michelle at her house, then loaded up in Marti's HUGE truck.  



We met the rest of them and put them in the back of the truck.


Nick is wearing his sunglasses because he is just out of the hospital with his TBI and this is one of his first outings...and he rides in the back of the truck for a few miles...





You unload the graduate, and they walk across this green carpet and stand by the back drop 



We drove by and cheered while she walked and stood for her pictures and shook hands (or whatever) with the Dean and professors. 



There were posters and balloons to cheer her on.  


We went to California Pizza Kitchen after to celebrate McKenna.  It was kindof a cool way to make it important but not take up a ton of time like most graduations.  Way to go!
