Quite Time with Ella

-


Saturday, after swimming, Ella was tired and clingy to Amelia.  Amelia needed to get some stuff done so I had Ella come over and hang out with me.  While I was working on my Thanksgiving tablecloth, Ella watched Paw Patrol.  Cory came home and joined in on the fun!

 Thursday, January 30, Morne had me work from home. He didn't want us leaving the compound.

  Monday, July 1 I was able to be in town for this Westland Breakfast!  It was so fun to get together with all the women of Westland and laugh, visit and eat good food! One of my favorite things about Monday's in the summer is Springville City's Farmers Market!  We love to go walk around and look at all the fun booths then get some yummy food from the food trucks and share!  This time we got alfredo pasta, calzone, corn dogs, California roll sushi, BBQ brisket with garlic mashed potatoes.  Our favorite was the corn dogs and least favorite was the calzone.  I tried the sushi and it wasn't that bad...but there was no raw fish so apparently it's not real sushi! Tuesday, July 2 We got up at 5:30 so we could go fishing up at Strawberry.  Kim and Janet met us up there.  I dressed for warm weather and it was so cold that morning.  I was bundled up in blankets and sweatshirts.  It warmed up as the morning went on.  It was so nice to be out ...
