Housing Arrangements

While these cuties are in town, Kortney and the kids are staying with April’s family…

while Dane is taking care of the pups at my house. They all go back and forth between houses.

It’s been a really fun arrangement–

for me anyway. Haha.

 

 

My Big Guys

 

When these two guys, who haven’t seen each other in over a year, finally get back together…at last,

you can likely rest assured…

that some dopey, ridiculous stuff…

is bound to happen…

like every other time they have EVER been together in their lives.

And all we can ever do…

is love them…

and laugh.

 

 

The Perks

One of the advantages of having son who is good with tech is that he can create a picture of a character from a book I love, that has…you know…

no pictures.

Not only does he create the image…

but he can personalize it.

Why, he can even make it into…

the Scottish man of my dreams.

If I was 40 years younger, that is…

and liked pointy ears.

Ha.

 

 

Yes, Master

 

This cute guy right here just finished his very last class for his Master’s Degree in Product Innovation–with a 4.0. Duuude. I’ve never had a 4.0 in my life, nevermind while in a Master’s program. SO much hard work!

Oh, my goodness are we ever proud of him!! Doing all that while being an incredible husband and father AND creating his own music channel on YouTube!

Congratulations my sweet boy. You are absolutely amazing.

We love you so much.

Mwa!

Mom

 

 

 

 

Wilderness Merit Badge

I’ll tell you what…

if you’re brave enough to leave the calm, comfortable, gorgeous place that we call home here in Utah…

and move to the outer regions of the universe with it’s own particular wild hearted appeal…

then I would suspect you’re probably also brave enough to…

sleep in a tent in the utter wilderness, despite the hordes of ferocious wild creatures lurking about…

and possibly you’re even brave enough to…

fish for your own breakfast in the biggest pond I’ve ever seen, that could, in fact be hiding the Loch Ness Monster’s American cousin…

then most likely you are also brave enough to…

take whatever creatures you foraged and hunted and scared up and slow roast them over an open fire out in the middle of nowhere.

So, I’m thinking…

if you’re going to do all that brave stuff with wreckless, crazy, wild abandon, then you may as well do it an a lovely place like this…

that is even lovelier with you all in it.

I sure adore you guys.

I sure miss you guys.

I’m glad you were a boy scout.
