selling the para plane

For a while Jeff has been thinking of selling his paraplane. He listed it on KSL last summer for a while and got a few calls but nothing serious. A guy at work asked him about it just over a week ago. He came to look at it a week or so ago & he told Jeff "I'm going to go fly my friends and if I like it I'm going to buy yours" Jeff laughed and said you may as well make me out the check. We have had lots of fun on it for the 7 years we had it. Most of my family got a ride while we were living in oregon, and Jeff had to take it up for one last ride when he came to pick it up. I am sure if Jeff gets to wanting to fly he can go take his dad's up sometime. He was grinning afterwards though, because now he is that much closer to his shop being completed. (we are all excited for that)

infamous hair and scissors


While I was at the blue and gold banquet tonight Lynsie decided to stay and play with nika. When I picked her, they had dumped all nika's 'kid scrapbook supplies' all over nika's room. We started to clean up all the paper and scissors, and found some surprises. Under some paper next to some scissors was a clump of hair. Some long staright pieces, (from Lyns) some strawberry blonde pieces, (from Nika) and some short curly blonde pieces (from Evan).
Lynsie had the end of her pony chopped and she has a very short bang section. Nika got the end of her pony chopped, and Evan will need a buzz (thank heavens he's the boy of the group) Thank heavens there wasn't as much hair as this picture! Goodness kids are crazy! I think the scissors at Niki's and here will be put up for a while. This is not their first time trying out their haircutting skills, hopefully we will not have a third time!

Now that's Fancy










We were lucky enough to get an invitation to the Uintah County Library's 'fancy nancy tea party'. We had loads of fun! All of Lynsie's Snow cousins rode to vernal together, dressed in their finest. We even got to make up fancy names for each of us. We got to do a fabulous craft, paint our nails and have treats. We drank our punch with our pinky up & our brownies had a plume in them (that's a fancy word for feather). They taught us how to curtsy and then read our favorite fancy nancy books to us. Lynsie got to ride home with her friend Nika. It was a very fabulous day (that's a fancy word for fun)
