Plumbing, Bubbles & Pasta
Went over to Zack & Kelsea’s today so that Michael & Zack could look over the plumbing job that Zack did on their North Trail. Last fall he installed a new kitchen faucet and reworked the plumbing under the sink, adding PEX & brass fittings. He hadn’t done much plumbing work and wanted Michael to … Continue reading
Ahhh….Dinner On The Patio….Twice!
On Friday we did more Munzee hunting, which took us down to the River front and we enjoyed some gorgeous views of the river from the nicely paved path that runs along it. We met Zack, Kelsea, Paityn & Cameron at Hudson’s Bay High School where Zack umped a softball game and the rest of … Continue reading
Plumbing, Walking & Umping
Seems like we haven’t had much time to sit and chill since we’ve arrived in Vancouver. Lots going on! On Tuesday we went over to Zack & Kelsea’s and Michael got the templates fixed so that he can router Cameron’s name into the top of his stool and then stain and varnish it. While he did that … Continue reading
Drawer Mod, ‘More Munzees’ And Church Of The Week
Yesterday morning Zack & Paityn picked us up shortly after 8:00 am and we headed 15 miles north. Zack was interested in a portable air conditioner that was for sale at a moving sale. They have no central air and this 10,000 BTU air conditioner had been barely used by its elderly owner. Michael & Zack both … Continue reading
Rain, Munzee & Family
Our first full day in Vancouver we were treated to what everyone else around here is so used to…RAIN! It started lightly raining last night about 9:00 pm and continued off and on throughout the day. We didn’t let the rain stop us though! We made plans with Zack & Kelsea to get together for … Continue reading
Surprise!
So yesterday’s post was a bit of a fallacy. We didn’t stop in Mountain Home for the night. We drove to Ontario, Oregon and spent the night in a Flying J parking lot so that we could continue on to Vancouver, Washington today. The reason? To surprise our oldest son, Zack, his wife Kelsea and … Continue reading
Moving Day: Hill AFB, UT To Mountain Home AFB, ID
After our usual moving day prep we pulled out of our site at Hill AFB base about 10:15 am. We headed north on I-15 toward Idaho and eventually hit I-84. We weren’t in a real hurry so we took our time. We had a nice stay while in the Salt Lake City area but would … Continue reading
Our Newest Family Addition!
We received a text last night about 10:00 pm (MST) that our daughter-in-law Kelsea was having pretty intense contractions and about 5 minutes a part and that they were waiting for friends to come and stay with 2-year-old Paityn. Zack kept us updated all night and after a pretty rough couple of hours of pushing … Continue reading
Sweet’s, Great Salt Lake, Mummy’s & A Treehouse!
We got a little snow early Monday morning…making a thick white layer over the grass, trees & mountains. Yesterday morning we had an appointment for a 9:00 am free tour of the Sweet’s Candy Factory! Unfortunately, no cameras were allowed inside. The Sweet Company has been family owned and operated since it first opened in … Continue reading
Our Thoughts And Prayers….
Our thoughts and prayers go out to those affected by the events that happened at the Boston Marathon today. Out of respect we will continue our blog tomorrow. God Bless!
