Home from Seattle

2008-05-20T15:51:00.001-07:00

Yes, they even have Coke in Seattle. And Diet Coke. We had such a good time. I'll
post more pictures tomorrow, mostly Victoria and the Butchart Gardens.
This is the Argosy Boat that took us on the locks cruise. We really loved this alot. It was
such a beautiful day and the sun was shining so we sat out on the back. It was so much
fun!!
This is Danny and Me coming back from across Fisherman's Wharf in Victoria. More about
Victoria on another blog.
What better symbol of Seattle than the Space Needle. We went to the top and actually called
Troy and Meg from up there. Technology is wonderful, isn't it?

Fun in the Yard

2008-05-12T16:17:00.000-07:00

Here is Gabe blowing out the candles on his Sponge Bob birthday cake. It was really
cute but didn't taste very good.

We celebrated Mothers Day and Gabe's Birthday yesterday and we had so much fun. It was nice and warm but really windy. But the kids wanted to play in the water so we let them.
This was a ball sprinkler that Gabe got at his birthday party on Sat.
We had a reallly nice day. Until Eli got hold of the hose with a sprayer on the end and decided
he should spray us all. Danny and Kelli ran and of course, I just sat there and screamed. Guess
who got all wet? Yep, Happy Mothers Day Nunn!!!! He is so full of the devil. But he is so
cute, you just have to love him!! And I do!

HAPPY MOTHERS DAY

2008-05-09T15:27:00.000-07:00

I just wanted to tell all you Mothers "Happy Mothers Day" I know some great mothers. And I had a really wonderful mother myself. I really miss her every Mothers Day. She taught me all the things I taught my own children. She was a really great example of motherhood to me. And I also remember my Grandma Olie. She was the greatest!! She was such a lady. She taught us all about wearing nylons, gloves, hats, heels, dresses, etc. whenever we went "to town" meaning into Salt Lake. We would always eat at the ZCMI tea room and I would always get Fish n Chips.
I really have had some great examples of mothers, including my own daughters (that includes you Kelli). You have all taught me so much, especially about love. I really don't think you understand the real concept of love until you have your own children. Thanks to all of you for being who you are!!! I love you.

Family Home Evening

2008-05-07T15:10:00.001-07:00

You should have seen Lowell and LuVera trying to get up out of the swing.
They had been working in the garden all day and could hardly move!!!
Is this SO Danny?!

Here's Robert waiting for those frozen hamburgers to cook!
This is Noma and me just waiting for dinner. The burgers were frozen so Lowell and
Robert got them apart with a screw driver and hammer. They were yummy!!

Our FHE Group met at Robert and Noma's on Monday night. We had a barbeque in
their backyard and it was actually warm enough to sit outside and enjoy the evening.
We had a really good time and then Noma gave us a spiritual message. See we do know
how to do things other than eat!!!

Oldies but Goodies

2008-05-05T12:36:00.000-07:00

I went to lunch Saturday with 21 of my High School "Girlfriends". We had so much fun!
We all were a few pounds overweight, some of us more than others. Most of us still dye
our hair. Vickki has pure white hair and looks 20 years older than the rest of us. Most of
us are still married to our first husbands. Two have been divorced and remarried. And
2 lost their husbands to cancer and have not remarried. Most of us have between 6 and 12
grandkids and of course, we all had pictures. Mine were the cutest!!!
We probably haven't seen each other in over 10 years and yet we all sat there and visited
with each other for 3 hours. It was like we just picked up where we left offf 10 years ago.
We also decided that as fast as we are dying off, we better meet every year from now on.
Mobid thought, huh? But 2 of our classmates died last week. Unbelievable!!
Anyway, it was a blast and I had looked forward to it all week. I forgot my camera, of
course. But just picture me times 20 with different hair, eye color, clothes, etc.
It's FHE group tonight and I will remember to take my camera.

Broken Computer

2008-04-24T10:37:00.000-07:00

Our computer broke. I think it was Meg (just kidding). It was probably me. Anyway,
Tyler came over Saturday and took it home and had it back on Sunday. But I had to
wait for Meg to set it up again because I am totally computer retarded. So finally.
We went to the Tulip Festival at Thanksgiving Point on Monday. We went with our
FHE Group. Surprised?! Actually it was only Lowell & LuVera and Robert & Noma
and us. But this is 2 Mondays in a row, so we figured we'd just call it our FHE Group.
I took some pictures, not very good ones. but here they are.
I guess I need to figure out how to do the pictures better. The first one is sideways
and I wanted the others underneath. Oh well. Meg, Help!!!!

Spring in Utah??

2008-04-17T17:19:00.000-07:00

Yesterday we woke up to SNOW!! It's 55 today and sunny but

Sat. & Sun. it's supposed to be 49 for the high and guess what? You guessed it - SNOW!!!

AGAIN!!! I don't like the heat but I could sure go for some warmer weather anytime soon.

But I guess this is what you call Spring in Utah!

On a lighter and better note - Troy bid a great big huge park in Riverton yesterday and

was the low bidder. We are very proud of him. But he is getting a little cocky! He said

he was unbeaten on bidding these big parks. What are we going to do with him???

My week in Review

2008-04-12T10:22:00.000-07:00

Yesterday was a funny day. We lost Quickbooks on my computer at work. Now quickbooks has our whole company's life on it and we were a little comcerned about that. But Kelli is THE woman!! She went up and between her Dad and Troy and the help on the internet, she found Quickbooks!! Yeh!! We knew Ray had back-up but we were still worried. Anyway, everything turned out great, thanks to Kelli.

Okay, today is Saturday and it's Danny's "mow the lawn and wash the truck" day.

Here he is. He gets on that lawnmower and he thinks he's on his motorcycle! But that's okay. It satisfies his "need for speed". And he washes his 2 trucks every Saturday. Now that's okay but one of them always stays in the shop during the week and never gets dirty. But, oh, well, it keeps him out of my hair on Saturday's!!

Not Much to Say

2008-04-03T09:21:00.002-07:00

My life is so un-exciting that I knew I would never be able to blog everyday. The most
exciting thing I did yesterday was get my nails done!! Brenda and her husband are coming
on the Cruise in March, so that's exciting for me.
I went to Wal-Mart (sorry Julie) and got some new rugs. Now, I know all you girls will be so
excited that I got new rugs!! That's my way of re-decorating! Anyway, I saw Judy Grover
there and we stood in the parking lot and talked for an hour! Judy is my oldest friend, clear
from Elementary, she was also my neighbor for ever. We decided all our old friends needed to
get together for lunch. So we are!
So, I have the Noorda grandkids today. I bought them a bunch of toys for the sandpile and
guess what they are playing with? A QVC box!! They are making a boat out of it and coloring
on it. I guess it's true - just give a kid a box and he can pley forever. Troy used to do that too
when he was a little boy.
Anyway, all of you have a good day today.

Okay, I think all of you know what the most welcome sight at my house is -
GRANDKIDS!!! I can't think of anything better than having all of them here at the
same time! And I'm anxiously awaiting June when that will hapeen. But for now, I
am content with Madison, Gabe and Eli twice a week. It satisfies my Grandma fix.
As soon as Meg comes over again and shows me how, I'll post tons of grandkid pix.

My First Time!!

2008-03-30T17:11:00.000-07:00

Hello, everybody!! I finally decided that I would try blogging. I love reading them and Jill said that I was a
Blog Stalker because I only read them and didn't actually blog. So, Ha,Ha, Jill!!

I'm afraid it might take me a while to find out how to actually use everything. Meg explained it all in about
2 minutes and I remember - ah- nothing about what she said. She is also going to show me how to post
pictures but I'm really afraid of that.

So I hope you will be patient with me and I will try my very best!
