Lately in the Carpenter house......

We have been doing good. For the past 3 days we have had my nephew, Chaz over for some special one on one time. Well, his mom Kelly had to go to Salt Lake and have eye surgury for her sight to come back. She is a diabetic and she has been losing her sight. We hope and pray that everything goes ok and her recovery time goes well. She will have to lay on her belly face down for two weeks while she recovers. Thanks to her mom, Karen who is taking care of her. The girls spent the last 3 days at their friends house playing, so I thought it would be better if Chaz got to be away from girls for a few days. Boy we have had some fun. Wednesday after school, it was early out day so I had to leave work early, darn and spend the rest of the day with the Chazer. We picked up his clothes from home and then did some errands. We had to stop because we got THIRSTY, that's my way of taking a break and getting a diet coke. We stopped at Brad's food hut and got a drink and a ice cream. After, we continued on with our errands. We got to stop by grandma Carol's and then to Uncle Rick's office. Chaz had a soccer game that night so we went home to rest and get ready. Some rest!!!!! As soon as we got home he wanted to play the Wii but the remotes were not charged, so he played to playstation 3 until he got board. Then he wanted to play Air Hockey, until I was winning, then he wanted to play board games, like Operation and Life. We finished with Life just in time for him to get dressed for Soccer. He scorred the only 2 goals that night and he played his little legs out. The other team couldn't get a ball past his team, so they won. Uncle Rick and I took him to Del Taco for the winning dinner. By the time we got home, the Wii remotes were charged and that's what we played for the rest of the night. By 8:30 I was pooped. We went to bed by 9. On Thursday, it was school again so we made it on time, but so did the school bus who pulled up right behind me and honked his horn so loud it scarred us and Chaz flew out of the car and shut the door. After school we headed home but stopped at a neighbors house to see if her twin boys would like to come to Funtime Inflateables with Chaz. She said sure that would be fun for them. I called another friend who has 3 boys differnt ages and asked if they would like to go, she said sure they would love to go. She met us their at 6 and the boys had a ball. Chaz was having a blast around all those boys. He was running like a maniac. Jumping from one thing to the next, sliding around, boxing in the boxing ring with giant boxing gloves, doing flips off the slides, air hockey, pool table, the crain game, hide and go seek and video games. Boy what a night. Bonnie and I got to sit and visit wild the wild men did their thing. We hadn't done that in years. It was good to get back in touch. Today Chaz it at school and after school I will pick him up and take him home. His mom and grandma should be back from Salt Lake. We sure had fun.



Last weekend Wendi came down here to Cedar and brought DJ, Brandee, and my Shelcy. We ate dinner at our favoriet restaraunt NINJA, then we were supossed to go to the Mud Bogs in Parowan but it got to late. We decided to go to Aunt Kelly and the kid's house to drop off invitations and they wanted to come with us having fun, so we decided to go to Funtime Inflateable's, but when we got there they were closed. We rented movies instead and watched them at home. Our boat has been broken for about 6 weeks so we couldn't go out on that, but the friends who actually broke the boat offered their Wave Runners to us so we could take everyone to the Lake. We loaded them up and headed off to Sand Hallow. It looked like it was going to be a wet and dreary day, but ended up sunny and warm. The girls had so much fun toodling around the lake, Uncle Rick had fun speeding around the lake. We hooked up a double seater tube and DJ and I got brave and let Uncle Rick and Shelcy pull us around. Bad mistake. He was going 25 and wipping us around so fast I thought I was going to fly out, I was scared for DJ who is all of 80 pounds. I had to put my elbow on her to hold her in. We laughed the whole time, our guts hurt. DJ and Brandee tried it next but Brandee had to stop because it was so scary. The girls built a sand castle on the beach and had so much fun, they forgot to put sunscreen on even after I kept telling them to put it on. They said: "We like to get burned" Well who's laughing now, LOBSTERS. We went to our usual dinner spot after the lake and had humungous Hamburgers at JB'S. We got back and decided to go to the movies and watch Proposal. Rick didn't want to watch the chick flick so just the girls went. Very Funny! They left on Monday and it was sad to see them go. XOXOXOXOXOXOXO

Summer is over, all the kids are back in School, seems like it wasn't a very long one, didn't a whole lot, I've been to Girls Camp and a Family Reunion, we only got to use the boat 3 times this Summer. I think it is fixed now and Rick and I plan to take a trip to Lake Powell just the two of us. We'll see. The wheather changes cold, hot, cold, hot. Fall is just around the corner. I just had a nephew get married the other day and a nephew getting married in a month. I am going to be a Great Aunt for the fourth time by the end of the year, boy I'm getting old. JK............lol As long as there's a boogy in my butt I will never be old. Keep smiling and Have a great day:)
