Activities Of Late

It was Dax's Birthday party tonight at the park. As you can see, he is very, very excited to see all us old people that he invited.
He did enjoy the pinata
Easton loved all the goodies--even Dax's blue icing birthday cake
When the party was done they all let the balloons go. I loved the looks on their faces!!

*********************************************

We watched Jarom and Adrien's girls while Adrien ran in a triathlon in Burley, Idaho. They made a weekend of it. We really had a great time with the girls.

The girls loved jumping on the tramp with Papa, they really wore him out.

While the girls were jumping on the tramp, Kate loved swinging and playing in the sand. Afterwhich she really needed a bath soooo....

I put Kate in the highchair and turned around for just a minute and there she was sound asleep

Remembering--

Kim had this on her blog and I thought it would be fun to see the memories--

1. As a comment on my blog, leave one memory that you and I had together. It doesn't matter if you knew me a little or a lot, anything you remember!

2. Next, re-post these instructions on your blog and see how many people leave a memory about you. It's actually pretty funny to see the responses. If you leave a memory about me, I'll assume you're playing the game and I'll come to your blog and leave one about you!reminisce away...

July 4th

Here they are: Allie, Emmie, Logan, Landon and Dax just waiting for the candy, with Adrien far left, Brion, Jarom holding Kate and our very pregnant Amie in the background.

Later at Scott and Lacee's house--

We rounded them up for a picture--I got wet trying to take it--splash splash
For the last few years we have been going to the Grantsville parade mainly because they throw more candy than at the Tooele parade and you don't have to fight to get a piece of candy. Yes, I have been known to go after the candy, but only for the grandkids (if you believe that, then I have some property that I would like to sell you). Anyway, we sure got a haul this year--two frisbee's, three little first aid kits and loads and loads of candy. Then we went over to Scott and Lacee's to have a barbeque and swim with the kids. It was really a great day. The only grandkids that I didn't get in this post (because it will only let you post so many pictures) was Easton, Kate and Clayton so I will post some more pictures of them in a few days.

Dream Among Dreams

You might ask, what in the heck is Brad Pitt's picture doing on this blog, especially since I have never seen one of his movies (this is true, not even the Oceans 11, 12-22). Well, I will tell you. I had this dream last late fall about the time Marie Osmond fainted on Dancing With The Stars. So sit down, relax and enjoy the dream.

I was in the studio audience of Dancing with Stars when the host came out and asked for volunteers. There I was bouncing up and down on my seat with my arm waving saying, "Oh, pick me, pick me, pick me." (I know it's pathetic) As luck would have it I was picked and joined about 6-7 other ladies on stage. We were all different ages, sizes, shapes, you know, just down to earth women.

The host said he had a big suprise for all of us, and right then Brad Pitt came walking out on the stage. Well, you can imagine the reaction of the women that were there. It was explained that Brad (should I call him by his first name?? I feel like I know him now) was going to teach each of us a specific dance. To the first lady Brad said, "I'm going to teach you the Rumba" (he even rolled his RRR). To the next lady, "I am going to teach you the tango" to which he clickety clicked his heels. And so on down the line he went...waltz, cha, cha, etc. I was the last one in line. When he got to me, he looked me up and down and said, "I think you can only handle the HOKEY POKEY!!" Now, I ask you, why? Why would he said that to me when I enjoy a good cha cha just as much as the next down to earth lady?

That was my dream. At the time I had this dream, I was sick with vertigo. Anyone that has had a bad case of vertigo knows that you DO NOT MOVE A MUSCLE as it makes you sick. When I woke up I started to laugh. The more I laughed the sicker I got. It was truly a sight. Soon after this dream my very, very good friend, Anne Pratt called to see how I was doing and I told her about the dream. She had a good laugh. I hope this has brightened your day and that you have had a good laugh as well. I want to laugh until the day I die, or Brad Pitt asks me to dance, whichever comes first.!!

First Annual Webb Pie Contest

Last night when I couldn't sleep I started to have some fun memories--One of those was last year's thanksgiving. The girls did the meal and each of the boys baked a pie of his choice for dessert. We had a contest--best tasting and best presentation. As you can see we lined them all up along the table, numbered them, gave out plates and dug in. We had apple pie, cheesecake, cream pie, chocolate pie, strawberry pie and a peach pie. As we were all tasting the pies, all of a sudden Brion takes a taste of HIS OWN pie and says, "THIS IS TERRIBLE," and spits it out. And it really was terrible. First of all he put home canned peaches in instead of peach pie filling and he forgot the sugar!! He also forgot the salt in the pie crust!! I was pleased that nobody said how terrible it was until he did himself. But then you should have heard the comments. By the way, Brion's pie is in the middle of the top picture and he got first prize for presentation. It was so funny, that I don't even remember who won for best taste. I think it was Jarom's strawberry pie. They were all yummy but one. Next year (even though it is an off year for our family we will do it again in November sometime) I am sure Brion won't forget the sugar!!
