Miscellaneous

Once again there isn't much going on in our lives. We did take Bryson to Kung Fu Panda last weekend. He seemed to really like it. We had a choice of "Wall E, Space Chimps or Journey to the Center of the Earth." By the time Tysha got off work that evening we didn't have a chance to get to the Walker Theatre on time. All those shows started before 7:00 p.m. We went into Brigham's Capitol just to see what was playing and low and behold Kung Fu Panda and we got in just as it started. Surprisingly pretty good. Bryson liked it anyway. Nic and Cyndi went to the new Batman movie last week and Nic said that he wanted to go see it again because he wasn't sure how he felt about the whole thing.
Saturday night (26th) we had Debbie and Jessica Lucas come over and we watched "Watchers in the Woods." Jessica had never seen it and it has been years since I had. It was fun. Lance, Jennie and the girls gave that DVD to Tysha for her birthday as well as, "Lady in White" and "Changeling." She was in seventh heaven.
The next couple of weeks are going to be real busy for us. We have been asked to help decorate the "Portage" booth for the fair. You know the community booths that are in the big building with all the crafts, canned goods, art work and 4-H displays. Carol Parkinson, Debbie Lucas, Konae Petersen, Tysha and I make up the committee. I am not very creative but the other ladies are so that is all that counts. I can supervise real well. (Ha, ha!)Tysha leaves on Aug. 10th for training in Menphis and will return on the 20th or 21st. I fly out on Aug. 7th to see Heath, Heidi and the kids. I return on the 16th. So you can see that our August has already been pretty well scheduled in for us. That only leaves us a couple of days when we are all back to get the fair display up and ready. I just can't believe how fast time is flying by!
I am also going to have an audit next week so I am going to be just a little bit pre-occupied for a while. That is putting it mildly. I hate audits!!!!
Like I said we are not that exciting! But we do love you all so much and miss you more and more each day.

We also want to wish Tyson the very happiest 7th birthday on July 30th. Wish that we could all be together to celebrate. Eat lots of cake and ice cream for us. Take lots of pictures.
Once again our love to all of you.

Visit

Hi everyone.
Just wanted to let you know that Parris and Dorothy came up Friday evening and spent the night with me. Gail and Lynn came down so it was sort of a "Chet & Ruth Neal" reunion of sorts. Parris stopped off at Famous Dave's and picked up dinner. It was really good. Pulled pork, Bar B Que chicken and spare ribs, corn on the cob and corn meal muffins. It was good of Gail to come down. I am sure that Parris and Dorothy enjoyed visiting with her and Lynn much more than they would have it had just been me. They want to have a yearly reunion and start getting all the kids to come. Think about it.
We really need to get everyone's dates for genealogy purposes. I need birth,baptismal & endowment dates, city and county. I should have had them entered a long time ago but now I am getting calls from family historians that want our information. So could you all please get that to me in the next week? Those that have already given me the information, I thank you very much.
Tysha went to visit Kyla last weekend to celebrate her birthday. She and Kyla went to supper in Twin rented a couple of videos and went back to the house and vegged for the rest of her stay. She came home late Saturday night. She has been called to be in the primary music and her first time to play the piano was Sunday. She did a good job.
Jennie, I am on the second book of the Stephanie Meyers books. I agree, they are good. I had a hard time with the first few chapters they were sort of a yawn. But then it just pulls you in hook line and sinker! I would recommend them to anyone.
You all congratulated me on the new blog look; I have to thank Eilisa for it. She is the one that updates things for me. I am not that good at blogging yet. Maybe some day.
Remember that I love you all and miss you all so much. Looking forward to Thanksgiving when I can see you all.
LOVE Momma Nese :)

Camping on the Fourth

Hey everyone! Yes I know that I am a slacker. I just feel that since I don't have pictures that there isn't much to post. Eilisa told me that I should tell you about the camping trip. What can I say? It was fun. Lot of work to pack everthing up, set up tents, camp and then in a couple of days do the same thing over again. Wish that all could have been up there with us. Couldn't beleive how green it still was for the month of July. Keith & Carissa came up Firday the 5th with little one. She made me realize just how much I miss all of my grandchildren. Keith fell on some rocks in the hot spings and we think that he cracked a rib or two. He was carrying Camaren Lynn and she went under the water. After that she wouldn't have anything to do with Keith or the water. Lynn went for a hike and we thought that he was lost but he had checked in at the trail head so we just had to be patient. He finally made it back. He was wishing that he had left earlier so he could have gone futher up the trail. We drove up to Josephus Lake on Sat. It took us about 2.5 hours to get up there. It was a steep windy trail. On the way down Lynn got tired so let Keith drive. We made it down in halve the time to drive up. But he had Kyla & Carissa car sick for going so fast! Keith entertained himself with trying to catch chipmunks in the little baby seat that had a lid on it. He succeeded in catching two of them. Of course it was catch and release! We packed up Monday and came home and still trying to get back into the swing of things here at work.
Parris and Dorothy are coming to Utah today. They are going to come up I guess this weekend for a visit. Gail and Lynn will come down Friday evening. Anyone that wants to come and visit with all of us would surely be welcomed.
Please keep up with all your postings and pictures, I truly look forward to each morning when I get a break to look at all your blogs. I love you all so very much.
LOVE GRANDMA NESE :)
