I got Flowers!

Thanks for the beautiful roses. The picture makes them look a little paler than they really are. I t must be that California Sunshine. We are having company for dinner tomorrow, I can show off my flowers.

Fun trip to Mexico Destenee and Brad. Tyce is really growing, I am excited to see all of you.

Cortnie and her prom

Kristina just forwarded pictures of Cortnie in her prom dress. Her date was at Kristina's wedding. Jodie made the dress. Good job Jodie!

The weather here is 100 degrees, but our house is cool. We have a domesticated duck in our pond. His name is AFlac, and is white. For a while we did not know if AFflac was a boy or girl Now we know, because the babies that were born earlier this Spring are now getting big and Blackflack (my name for him ) is one of them. His mom is a regular mallard. He is really getting big, now bigger than the others. He is not an ugly duckling because he is too cute!

opps I forgot

The top picture is of the fault. Just in case you did not know what they look like. There is an oasis about two miles from here that we can walk right on the fault. ( scary?)

The cactus flowering is such a new thing for me, and they are all flowering now.

The picture on the right is for Kamden and Kye, Can they find the caterpillar and the lady bug?

The pond picture is to show you all what I have to drive over! Love .............Grandma

The coyote

Hello everyone.

We have a coyote problem here. They are always around the desert, but they are getting braver, they think anything small and wiggely is for a meal. We feel pretty safe, but the rabbits on the 12th hole need to be careful, and a couple of toddlers have been grabbed and rescued by their parents. That made national news! Here is one walking down a busy street.

The weather has been just beautiful, but the hot weather should arrive next week. By that we mean triple digits. Our friend Rick Doherty is flying in today. He owns a home here, He rents it most of the time, and comes down as much as he can. David has two other bachelor friends that he golfs with all of the time. They are coming for dinner. So they owe me big time for cooking on Mothers day.

The course is so quiet, because so many people have returned to their homes up north. I go out the door and tee off on the front lawn which is really the golf course. Drive over the pond and try to make it to the green. So far I have only come close and fished out a lot of balls!

There have been some earthquakes, but I have not felt them. We are real close to the San d' Andreas fault. (sp?) Actually less than 2 miles. That is Why I am the nurse on the diaster committee. I am incharge of medical, Pattie is also on, and is in charge of shelter and food.

We have everything covered right?

Hello everyone..

Happy anniversary to Jamie and Kyle!

I watched the video of Kamden 3 times so far. It is so special.
I am coming to Utah. I will arrive on the 10th, then stay until the 14th when David will pick me up and then we will drive to Spokane together.

I do not know if Dane has a blog, or just reads yours. I know that Kyle really likes his hybrids, so maybe Dane wants me to buy some for him. Last year they were really on sale for a good price.

Patti has gmail now, and her address is plemcke.7@gmail.com. Next I will show her how to create a blog. I need to learn how to do videos on my camera too. I am looking forward to hearing about Mexico from Destenee and Brad.

I will see you all soon..............
