As previously mentioned I have so many pictures in my portfolio that I decided to make this a two part er...so here are a few more of my summer photos.
Again, thanks to all you wonderful family members and friends who keep in touch with us. It really means a lot especially being so far from our kids! For those of you who are not aware...I have started a new Enchanted blog for my company with design tips, etc...you can access it at www.enchantedesign.blogspot.com Thanks! Matti for spending so much time helping me get this set up. I am so pleased with the results! And a special thanks to Jen and her friends for that great picture they took of the "Twilight" walk in Oregon. Just like I pictured that place in the book;-) Please check it out when you have time and I would love to receive any comments and/or questions you might have. Also just another reminder for all of you who are getting email updates on this blog to click on the blue print at the bottom that says My Invincible Summer and it will open up to my actual blog with all our family pictures...etc.
Speaking of which, I am excited to say that we have added a new sweet little face under Miah's Team. We welcomed grand child number 18 to our family yesterday at 11:20 AM. Great job Rachel and Miah and a special welcome to our little Kaylee Ann;-)!!! She is a definite keeper:-)
The summer has begun to wind down and today is the first official day of fall, but the weather has stayed really warm here. In fact it has been record setting! It was such a pleasant surprise to wake up to cooler temperatures this morning so I started my morning walk routine again. The grass and flowers were so gorgeous! Tom and I actually got out one morning last week and walked almost 5 miles, but then it got hot again. So, hopefully I will be able to get back in shape now. As you can tell by the pictures I definitely enjoy my "treats" this summer. I have found that just swimming each day is not as beneficial for the elderly sags, if you know what I mean. Things definitely get more challenging after 65! Right now I am trying to walk and swim each day until it gets too cool for the swimming.
The last two "tropical" monsoon months have caused the plants and trees around here to go crazy. So Tom, bless him, braved the heat a few days ago and cut back some of the vigorous growth around here. I think he was enjoying it a bit too much and got a little tooooo carried away on the Mesquite tree though...LOL. I was teasing him because his "favorite" shorts are so baggy since he lost the 40 pounds. You know how guys are about their favorites...so what can a poor woman do? Anyway to reward him for his efforts we topped off the morning with my infamous whole wheat waffles by the pool.
Well, I have included some more pictures for you, but they may not be in any particular order because I am not that adept as yet at formatting my blog...
Missing you and looking forward to my trip to SLC in November. Hope to see all my wonderful SLC family and friends then! ...And, of course, snuggle with my sweet newest little grand daughter!!!
