Labor Day Hike

Monday, September 3, 2018

We decided to get up early to hike on our day off. We drove down near the lake and took the path to the old railroad tunnels. It was an easy hike, which was perfect since I was still a little weak from my surgery. It was a nice day and we enjoyed being outdoors. 

  

You can’t go through Boulder City without stopping at A&W for floats. The secret is that they make them in frosty cold mugs. 

Later that afternoon we went to see Operation Finale about agents hunting down Nazis in South America after WW2.

Lex finally got into Weber State. She applied really late and had trouble getting all her transcripts sent over. She is excited to be a Wildcat - I think she has wanted to be a Wildcat ever since she saw High School Musical when she was 8.

I won 2 tickets to see Reba McIntyre and Brooks and Dunn from work. I took Holly Mitchell. Debbie Witt (my new library assistant) and her husband, Bill had seats next to us. It's amazing that I remember all the words to songs I haven't heard in 20 years.

We spent Saturday morning visiting Grandma Hein and we stopped at Lucy's Waffles and Ice Cream on the way back. The waffles were crispy and the ice cream was Thrifty's.

Lex had a work activity playing kickball at the park. She loves working at the Kaysville Orange Theory and made two new friends, Haley and Emma.

Cam received her Patriarchal Blessing from Patriarch Dwain Thatcher. It was awesome to be there and to feel the Spirit and I look forward to see all the wonderful things Cam will achieve in her life.  

We had a family dinner before Chase went back to school in Idaho and lee moved his family across the country to South Carolina. The most exciting part of the dinner was Bo and Abigail's announcement that they are expecting - TWINS! These two will arrive in March.

It was my turn to host book club. I chose America's First Daughter, a historical fiction book about Patsy Jefferson. In honor of the part of the book that takes place in France, I made crepes and had several fruity toppings to choose from.

I started working on school stuff. There is a camp theme throughout the school this year and I made the library Camp Read S'More with beagle scout Snoopy as our mascot.

Lex sent a few days with Tristan and his family at their cabin in Yellowstone.
