That's all I got

Well the big Ragnar Wasatch Back Relay race came thru Morgan last night and I was able to be a guest house for Mackenzie's team. Unfortunately I did not get out the camera to take pictures of all the people running in the day light and when it came time for Mackenzie to run it was dark.

The girls pretty well provided everything that they needed. Kenzie brought up lasagne, fruit, papergoods and water the night before. I just had to put the lasagne in the oven to cook before the first load of runners came. They ran in two groups of 6 members each. They each take a leg and pass off to the next runner. They end up running all night and part of the next day. I think that the total number of miles they run is about 188. Whew!!!

We went up to the corner and helped direct traffic so no one got hit while running and had a really good time. We came back home about 1:00 am. Kenzie finally called and said she was stuck in traffic in Henefer so we went to bed. I think they got here about 2:30 am and they took showers and had something to eat and then crashed on the couches and floors for a little while before heading out to meet up with thier team and do their last leg of running. Over all I think it was a good expierence. Someone said that there were 1000 teams of 12 or so this year. Wow that is a lot of people
Thanks for including me and letting me be part of the night. It was really fun.

AIRMED in Morgan

Airmed from the University of Utah came to Morgan today. They were coming to do a training with our emergency department.



Lucky for me, I work at the court house and was notified of this so I could round up my grandkids and we could go an watch it come up the canyon and land on the lawn of the Library/Senior Citizen Center.
Here it comes..........
Some of us got a little too close and it blew our lovely hairdo's. (sorry Stacy)
This is CJ, Treyson and Tagg right up close to the actual helicopter. They gave out pins and stickers to all the kids. It was awesome.
Believe me, it is way funner to see the Airmed helicopter like this and any other way. Thanks for sharing with our little town of Morgan and thanks for all you do for those of us that need your services.

Rylee's Utah History Fair

After we attended Treyson's school event we went over to Rylee's Utah History Fair. He is proudly displaying his booth.
He did his fair project on the "Baron Woolen Mills" in Brigham City Utah. We were able to find a wool sweater that my mother had knit. (He was wearing it but soon found out that wool is very warm) We also found socks and golves that she had knit for my dad. Then we found a wool rug that mom and dad used to pick up from the Baron Woolen Mills when they took thier sheep wool up at the first of the year. We also found a really nice new woolen blanket that actually was in the wrapper marked with Baron Woolen Mills. How cool is that? We went to the internet and pulled off some information about when it was built etc. It was actually built by Pres. Lorenzo Snow! He also found some pictures of when the sheep get sheered. It was fun project and was fund to show him all of the things that my mom and dad did with wool.
Way to go Rylee. Good Job!

Treyson Pre-school day

On Thursday we attended the end of year pre-school celebration for Treyson. This is him telling everyone his name.
They sang some really cute songs and had actions and props with them.
This song is about bubble and bathtubs. Very Cute!!
The kids were all so excited to see thier moms and dads and grandparents. Teacher Melanie does a really great job and the kids love her for years to come.....Thanks Teacher Melanie

THE BIG HIT

Rylee is playing on a Competition Baseball team this year and is really learning alot.

These boys pitch pretty hard and fast. He has been hit a couple of times this spring and therefore backs out of the box when he gets up to bat. (I can't say as tho I blame him.) anyway

the coaches are really working with him on the batting and back out thing.

This is a video of a big hit that he had on Saturday. I am so very proud of him and he was so excited. It did not go over the fence but hit just below one of the banners. Almost a home run. Anyway it was fun to see his face.

Thanks to all his fellow team members and his coaches. He is really having a great time!!

SPRING RIDE

For our Sunday afternoon today we decided to pack the Jeep with some drinks and snacks and head out for a ride.










Rylee still fits good in the back seat.

We rode up to East Canyon.


Stopped at "Mormon Flats" (I think that is what it was called)

And even got out to let Rylee clean the monument a little. Someone had coated it with mud, so he of course took the sleeve of his freshly washed hoody and cleaned it.

It was "The Road to Zion" that told about th pioneers.

There is a little foot bridge to take you over the creek

And head you up the mountain for a great hike. Of course it is still a little chilly to be taking the hike so we headed over to Park City on the Jeramy Ranch Road. It is still pretty rough because they have not graded the road yet.

It was not all green and pretty but we did see alot of people and their dogs using the road. Oh and there were a couple of cyclists as well.

Snow Basin

Mackenzie took a 2nd (or 3rd) job at snowbasin this year so that she and Blakeley could go skiing. I think that she enjoyed herself and was able to meet some really nice people. Anyway Sunday was there last day and they had a live band and hot dogs and bratwurst and everything so Jim and I took the convertable and rode up and spent some time on the mountain.

It was a beautiful day and was really quite warm.


Here she is hard at work. Way to go Kenzie.
