September Fun

Couldn't resist putting up these pictures of our little outing to Willow Park one Sunday afternoon in September. It was so fun with Scott and Olivia interested in all the birds and especially the fish! What a relaxing way to spend a Sunday.

And then, of course, we had to celebrate another birthday. Can you guess whose it was by the blaze of candles on the cake? Carl couldn't find enough candles to cover the cake....Texas sheet cake with German chocolate frosting! Then he made a delicious dinner...my favorite Bar-B-Q ribs, garden potatoes, corn on the cob, and a yummy spinach & strawberry salad that Michele brought. As far as birthdays go, it was as good as it gets for getting older than dirt.

And then there's Olivia...the entertainment for the party....a rendition of "If You Chance to See a Frown." Can you tell which picture is the frown and which one is the smile??? Gotta love her!

Catching up a bit....

I finally got my pictures downloaded on my computer so I can share what we have been doing for the past couple of months...I'll start with my favorite place in Utah... Bear Lake!

Carl, Scott and I went to Bear Lake in September, our only trip there this summer! It was beautiful, peaceful and refreshing. We loved it there. There were only 13 other cars on the beach...believe it or not:) We had a wonderful time!

Carl enjoying the peace and quiet!

Scott doing what he does best....playing in the sand. We couldn't get him to go into the water but he sure had a ball covering himself in the sand!

Dad had to go out on the raft by himself because Scott was a party pooper....It looks like he had a good time, though!

Can't wait to go back to our seaside resort!

More of our adventures in other blogs to come...................
