Today I’ll be attending the memorial service for Taylor’s grandmother, Mary Ruth Taylor. She finally succumbed after a 25 year fight with Alzheimer’s. She had been staying in a care facility in Rexburg, ID for the last year or two, so I hadn’t seen her for a while. This is his second grandparent to pass […]
With all the times I’ve been to SLC this year, I can’t believe it’s been so long since I’ve seen Mary. Going off to college does that, I suppose. In my dad’s words, Clint looks a little “horny” Clint was so enamored, he just couldn’t hold back! Rosie wanted to get in on the action […]
Saturday, the three of us arose early to get ready to leave for the airport. My visiting teacher Sue drove us to DTW bright and early. We ate a quick breakfast at the airport, and got boarding passes without too much trouble. Rosie and I flew towards Portland (flying Northwest via Northwest) and Taylor flew […]
Rosie is thankful for mom, me, cats, food, dad, toys, dog, and … sister?(No, that’s not an announcement. She says she meant the turkey’s sister) This Thanksgiving is the first one that I’ve ever spent away from extended family. Taylor, Rosie and I are chilling in a chilly house in Georgia without any cousins, aunts, […]
Last Saturday, I met up with my cousin Thomas for breakfast in Orange County. He was the winner of my blog giveaway…which gave me a great opportunity to get “caught” up with him. He’s a few years younger than me, and I don’t know him as well as his older sisters Alaina and Jillian. When […]
Friday night we went to our ward Halloween party. There was a trunk-or-treat in the parking lot, then carnival games, donuts, and cider inside. Rosie wore her witch costume, and I threw together an disco fashion victim ensemble in about 10 minutes before going out the door. In honor of Taylor’s last Saturday in Michigan, […]
I’ve been behind in my blogging for a while! I’ve been on two awesome trips in the last week and a half, which I need to give the run d0wn in case I otherwise don’t blog about it. California: I flew out of DTW Friday evening. The flight loads were pretty iffy, but a three […]
Today has been a lovely day. If it were only for my dad’s progress, I would have been a happy 28 year old woman. But I got a whole day with Taylor, and we had a blast! I picked up up from the airport right after Rosie left for school, had a lot of alone […]
Current mood: exhausted These past few weeks have been super fun-filled! My stress level has also been high, so I feel like I’m in a bit of a manic phase right now. I’ve never been diagnosed with Bipolar Disorder, but these last two weeks would make one wonder. So to summarize, here are the highlights […]
