Not to terribly exciting post.

So the last few days have been pretty uneventful. The family is in various stages of some kind of cold/flu bug. Whatever it is, it hangs around for a really long time. I'm tired of it. It can go away now. This household is tired of our little pandemic, swine or otherwise.

The girls played softball last night. It was a good game. Megan pitched a good game and Tiffany made a bunch of good plays at third base. They have city tournament left and then the season is over. Too bad the weather hasn't been very cooperative this season.

Guy is totally fed up with the weather. He told me to email the weatherman yesterday and tell him that he (Guy) wants nice weather. He was deadly serious. I told him I didn't know the weatherman's email address but I would see what I could do. I really love that kid.

While some folks think its silly or stupid to keep track of a baby's age using months instead of years, we like it and make a big deal out of it. Miss P.J. turned 8 months old yesterday. We sang to her and everything (because we're dorks).

Unexciting but sometimes thats life.

Granite Hot Springs

We took a trip to Granite Hot Springs last weekend. Granite is a swimming pool located in the Wyoming mountains. The pool is fed by a hot spring. I've been going to this place since I was a little kid. It's still just as much fun as it was then. Folks ride snow machines in during the winter and swim surrounded by snow. The pool is even hotter in the winter months. It's a beautiful place! It's about 30 minutes south of Jackson Hole. It rained a lot while were there. It was a bit cold, but the rain made everything so green. We did get rained on in the pool but that really doesn't matter. We were snowed on in the pool last June! It was a great weekend with the family (or most of the family anyway).

I really like this picture of Chris. :)

World Wide Knit in Public Day Of Course



If you aren't interested in things that involve yarn, feel free to move along . . . . :)

Saturday was World Wide Knit in Public Day. When I say World Wide, it really is. It happens the second Saturday of June each year. Groups gather all over the world to knit. A public display of craftiness if you will. A small gang of us gathered early at the local Starbucks and then joined a larger gang for the better part of the day at the local craft store. It was a fun day with some lovely ladies. Fun, laughter, knitting, good weather, and prizes! What's not to love?

My First Post



I keep thinking I need to start a blog but I've been too lazy for years to do anything about it. Well today, I decided to take the plunge. Here it is. Nothing special really but a way for me to keep track of my life. And most importantly, a way for me to post pictures of the people and stuff that I love. And for my very first photo debut on this not so exciting blog I give you my very favorite tiny human. My grandbaby P.J.! Oh and P.J. is a girl despite what you might have thought by her camo outfit.
