The end of March we went to Chicago to Visit Holli, John and Rhys. I think I've mentioned before that I love Chicago. I visited there in the fall and thought the leaves were so beautiful. In the spring, there are tulips everywhere! One of the first things we did was head to Nauvoo. John and Rhys had never been there, so we wanted to show them around, since the rest of us had been there before. </div>

Then we went on to Hannibal, MO. It was fun, but a word to the wise here. Don't visit any of these places until after April 18th. Before that is considered the "off season" and they are dead! You can't even find a place to eat lunch! We still had tons of fun though. Rhys is playing with "Noise Putty" in this picture. I'm sure you have heard of it and know the kind of "noises" it makes. Bampa insisted on buying it for Rhys, who loved it. But he left the lid off and it tipped over in the car, unbeknownst to any of us, so Holli and John had a horrible, hot pink goopy mess on their car's capet.</div>

While there we discovered our old friends from high school, Ann and Doug Neilson were there. Apparently Doug was Joe's Bishop, so they were attending because of that. We commented on how much Doug resembles President Thomas S. Monson, and also how our family kind of think Jeff looks like President Uchtdorf, so we decide to take a picture of them together.</div>

And it was nice to see family members that we don't get to see very often. This is Jeff's Mom and Frank. They spend most of their time in Oregon, so we don't see them as much as we would like. It was a great way to spend a Saturday morning!</div>

We decided to hike to St. Thomas again one Monday for Family Home Evening. It was quite cold, so we bundled up good and made the trek. It's always so interesting to see the old foundations of the town, now that the waters of Lake Mead have receded so much.</div>

There were a few things that we hadn't seen before. One of them was a well that had names and dates carved into the cement inside. I'm wondering why we didn't take a picture, but it seems like our camera went dead or something. Anyway, that was really cool.</div>

We had been planning to visit our parents right after the holidays, but Dad scared us all and had a six by-pass operation about the time we were going to go visit. Since Jeff and I were both fighting colds and flu at the time, we were afraid to go there when Dad had the surgery for fear we would bring germs that he didn't need. So we waited until he was out of the hospital and doing better before we went up to see him Martin Luther King Jr. weekend. By then he was in a re-hab place in Richfield. It was very hard not to be there when he had the surgery, but we all felt it would be better to wait. I'm kind of glad we did, because we had a nice visit with them in the re-hab center. I couldn't believe how good Dad was doing, and Mom needed a respite, so we were able to take her home to sleep in her own bed for a couple of nights and help her with paying some bills and doing laundry. However, we had strict orders from Dad to "get back over here before 8:00 a.m.!" He really didn't want Mom to leave his side, but she needed a break.</div>

Well, it's Christmas, but not really in July. Try December. But being as how we are going back to Hawaii soon to be there when Cassidy has her baby, and we spent Christmas there, I thought I should get on the ball and do a post about Christmas before we go back. </div>

Christmas in Hawaii is really fun. We love the beaches, and being on the beach on Christmas day is just cool. Lexi graduated from BYU in December, so as soon as she was finished in Provo, she flew out to Hawaii and was there a week or so before we got there. This little guy is getting so big, and has such a cute little personality. He is delightful.</div>

One of the first things we did was go on this hike to Makapu'u Point. We've done this hike before, but it's a nice hike that is pretty easy and stroller friendly, so we decided to do it again. Plus it has a beautiful view of the ocean and a little red roofed light house when you get to the top.</div>

Truman was pretty good, except when we tried to watch a movie about Pearl Habor. He kept squirming and trying to get off his Mom's lap to run around. She wouldn't let him, and finally he yelled, "put this naughty boy down!" We couldn't help but laugh!</div>

We had a wonderful time in Hawaii, even though it was a little colder than we expected. James and Cass were so good to let us invade their small apartment, especially with Cassidy not feeling well. She was a trooper, but it was a little rough for her. The snorkling was our last day before we flew home. But then we had some fun times at our house, so stay tuned for the rest of the story!</div>Jolynnhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/02737781521006831056noreply@blogger.com3tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4434101376830300018.post-91545951937474540782012-06-24T19:03:00.000-07:002012-06-24T19:03:46.257-07:00Give Thanks<div style="text-align: center;">
Yeah, it's the end of June and I'm blogging about Thanksgiving........Lame! I would just skip it, but in case I ever want to make this blog into a book, I would't want any gaps. So my goal is to keep it really short. Just pick out a few fav pics, and git er done. The thing I am afraid of is that they are ALL my fav pics. I love the one below. This is some of the grandkids patiently waiting for dinner and watching Isaac hang a spoon from his nose like Bampa taught him.</div>

We set up an outdoor movie in the back yard and bundled up in every quilt and blanket that I own (and a few sleeping bags as well!) and watched the movie Elf. For the first time in my life, I wasn't the one complaining about being cold. I was actually quite comfortable. And in case you think I was hogging all the blankets, I wasn't! We don't have any pictures of the actual movie watching because we were all snuggled in our blankets and no one wanted to get out to take pics.</div>

The next morning before Jake and Liz and their boys had to leave, we had fun making gingerbread houses. Tons of thanks to Hill and Keith for making all the gingerbread pieces and supplying most of the candy. We always have so much fun making these together.</div>

Well I guess everyone thought I was through with blogging, and I almost was. I have had no time in my life for blogging and just thought I would give it up. But in the end I decided to keep plugging along and try to get Christmas blogged about before next December. And no, this is not my Christmas post. Not there quite yet. On November 11 and 12, my sister and I took Mom to Time Out for Women in St. George for her birthday. It was such a fun weekend, and I think Mom really enjoyed it.</div>

We heard lots of different speakers, including this cute and fun speaker from Sierra Leone named Mariama Kollen. She had such a wonderful message of hope and forgiveness, and her personality and sense of humor were delightful, in spite of the horrors she has been through in her life. She made you laugh and she made you cry. Don't you just adore her hat??</div>

On Saturday before Mom and Shell drove home we drove way out to this little restaurant out in the middle of now where that we had heard about for dinner. It seemed like we drove forever, and when we got there it was pretty pricey, but I thought it was worth it. My meal was super yummy, and it was a really unique place. All in all it was a very fun weekend and one that I will always remember.</div>

Yes, I am always behind. Anyway, in November I surprised her with a little visit to their new digs in Chicago. John knew I was coming, but Holli didn't. It was so fun to knock on her door and see the surprise on her face! Rhys was a little disappointed that I wasn't his teacher, Mrs. Walsh, but he soon got over it! It was so fun to see how he has grown. He is such a fun little boy. Holli and John showed me around and pretty much took me to see all the things I wanted to see.<br />

One of the first things we did was take Rhys to their awesome FREE zoo! He wanted to ride this train, but the screaming kid in the next car kind of ruined his ride. Good thing he wasn't in the same car as Rhys.</div>

We got there just in time for Jake's work party, which turned out to be a not-to-be-missed event. These people know how to throw a party! It was in the actual business place, which had been transformed into an unbeliveable show place complete with spook allies, Hogwarts, monsters, Toy Story, and many more scenes, and most of all.............CANDY galore.<br />

Josh and Charlie are such fun loving little boys. They loved the bubble machine, but when they would get interested in something else, I would turn it off to save the batteries. But as soon as I did, one of them would notice, and run over and turn it back on! Charlie love doing the teeter totter all by himself. We tried to show him how you can do it with two, but he would have none of that!</div>

But Josh prided himself on going down the big, semi scary slide. This slide has been around since their Dad was a kid, and is seriously high. There is no way it would pass the safety standards of today, so Josh's bravery was justified. </div>

It was so fun to have them here for a couple of days. These last pictures are on Sunday morning and the boys are in their pajamas. I wish you could see the big holes in Josh's superman pj's! He loves those pajamas so much, and won't part with them, though the knees are shot.</div>

I realize that it's February and I am just now blogging about August, but I am trying to get caught up. I know it would be easier to just start from now, but I can't. That just seems wrong. So here goes.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Football started early this year because we were invited to play in the Sollenberger Classic in Arizona. It was pretty exciting because we got to play in this stadium.</div>

It's the University of Phoenix Stadium where the Arizona Cardinals play.</div>
<div align="center">
We stayed at the Arizona Biltmore, a ritzy hotel that was build in the 1920's or maybe 30's, not quite sure. It was a really cool hotel where all the movie stars and famous people used to stay, and it was designed by Frank Lloyd Wright.</div>

The first night we had an exclusive tour of the stadium, which would have been much more enjoyable if I hadn't developed blisters on my heels from all the walking (in my new shoes I bought when all the wives went shopping). Still, it was really interesting and lots of fun.</div>

That night they had a banquet for us and the speaker was Randall McDaniel, former Arizona State and Vikings player. Afterwards Lexi met him and had him sign her T-shirt. The next day we went swimming again, and then it was time for the big game. We were able to get tickets for Hill and Keith and the kids and it was fun to have them come. We played an Arizona school called Show Low. They were supposed to be a really good team, nationally ranked and all, but we beat them! It was really a fun game and cool that we won.</div>

Okay, I'm having blogging problems, so now my captions will be at the bottom of the picture they are describing. This ride ended up being a favorite of Isaac and Sareny, but poor Finley got super scared on it. It was kind of a kiddie version of Tower of Terror. Fin tried to be brave but ended up crying through most of it. We felt so bad for her! The other two loved it and went on it again and again.</div>

The first thing we decided to do after arriving at Jake and Liz's was to go do a tour of the Kennecott copper mine. It was pretty amazing. This picture shows just how huge the tires are on the trucks that are as big as houses that haul the ore up from the bottom of the mine.</div>

Liz has been wanting to take us to Gardner Village for a long time, so the next day we went there. I loved it! There were so many cute and fun stores. But we soon learned shopping with three little boys is not very fun. I guess their parents already knew this, but I had forgotten. We still had fun though.<br />

We decided to make a stop at Grandma Keel's and see if she happened to be there, and to our delight, she was there. She spends most of her time in Oregon and only comes to Utah periodically, so we were glad we got to see her.</div>

While Cass was here we wanted to do some sewing and crafting, and we were able to make lots of cute things in the time she was here. We had to utilize Truman's naps and stay up late at night to get our projects done, but we had lots of fun doing it. We tried finishing projects while Truman was around, and it was a disaster. He is a busy little boy and didn't want to be left out of the fun. This is a picture showing some of the fun hot pads, pouches, pin cushions and aprons we made. This cute apron is the one Cass made. Mine wasn't quite finished when we took this picture.</div>

We also tried to exercise together when we could, and started P90X with some friends while Cass was here, when we weren't traveling all over. I really enjoyed it. In fact, I enjoyed the whole visit, and it was pretty sad and lonely around here when they left to go home. We made some fun memories though, and had a super good time!</div>Jolynnhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/02737781521006831056noreply@blogger.com5tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4434101376830300018.post-22136812472796450832011-10-16T10:48:00.000-07:002011-11-13T09:29:02.863-08:00Cassidy and Truman's Visit Continued........Truman loved playing in the little wading pool. But only for a short time, then he would get out and wander around, burning his feet on the hot sidewalk, and getting grass all over himself and not liking it.<br />

For the Keel Reunion we spent the day at Cove Fort. It was fun to see everyone, since we don't get to see them very often, and I was glad they got to see Truman too. Most of them had never met him.<br />

We had so much fun during our visit. We went to see Cars 2 on our last day there. Truman is still too young to really love movies, so he got a little naughty after awhile. But he did see enough to totally love "Light-Mean Queen" and "Mainer" as he pronouces them. We stopped at Walmart on the way home and I bought him a Lightning McQeen and Mater and they became his new favorite cars. We left to come home on Finley's birthday, so before we went to the movie she got to open her presents. She was so cute.</div>

Cass and Tru got here around June 8th or so, and we wanted to have a hot dog roast before it got way hotter, so we cooked hot dogs and s'mores in the back yard. Tru loved them and ate at least three. Unfortunately, he got really sick during the night, and it was not pretty. We were hoping it was just too many hotdogs and not a flu bug because..............</div>

Lexi came down for the weekend, and we headed out. Sadly, right before we left Cass started feeling sick and we realized that Tru actually did have a flu bug............but what could we do but carry on? Poor Cass felt awful all the way to California. Fortunately the only other person to get it was me, and I had a much milder case of it. But the Keels would never let a little thing like the stomach flu ruin a trip to Dis! It was so fun to take Tru for his first time. He loved everything! (except Pirates of the Carribbean, which he hated.)</div>

Truman in his new Mickey shirt with his "Mickey Buddy". We have a tradition of making Muddy Buddies when we go to Disneyland, and we call them Mickey Buddies instead. But since Cass was sick all the way there, then I was sick, we really couldn't enjoy our Mickey Buddies much, so we were pretty excited to eat them on the way home. Unfortunately when we opened the back of the car while loading stuff up, the Mickey Buddies fell out, the lid popped off, and they spilled all over the parking lot. We were so sad :( But the cute thing is, Tru heard us talking about "Mickey Buddies" so much that he called his stuffed Mickey toy his Mickey Buddy. So cute!</div>

VisitOne of Lexi's best friends from high school got married May 13th, so I went up to St. George for the wedding reception, since Lexi was a bridesmaid. Jeff was busy at a track meet, so we had talked about getting a motel room up there and spending the night in St. George, but in the end we decieded to come home and do some fun things here. Not that washing your car is fun, but both our cars needed it so bad, and Lexi actually wanted to! Plus it IS more fun when you do it together.<br />

Always a treat the kids love when they come home to visit. Brings back lots of fun memories of going out to dinner there when they were kids. It was a very short visit, since Lexi had to go back the next day, but we really did have lots of fun together. Next time Lexi comes home maybe we can even vacuum out the cars and really detail them, maybe mop some floors............</div></div>Jolynnhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/02737781521006831056noreply@blogger.com6tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4434101376830300018.post-89718330081755972842011-07-20T11:54:00.000-07:002011-07-20T11:54:17.135-07:00Branding DayYup, it's branding time again. Or at least it <em>was, </em>on May 7th (I'm a little behind as usual). Head 'em up, move 'em out! It's always a fun time when everyone who can, shows up at "The Ranch" for the day. It's like a big ol family reunion.<br />

Jeff couldn't dig in and help though, on account of his broken toes with the pins sticking out of them.

He has grown so much and changed a lot since we saw him at Christmas time. He has a new hair cut, which makes him look lots older. He is still only two, but seems older because he talks so much and so plainly. We flew in to Atlanta and took a shuttle to Holli and John's place. We immediately loaded up their car and took off for Charleston, South Carolina. We decided to spend a few days there seeing the sights. The first thing Holli did was buy a hat. I decided a while back that I would never sunburn my head again, so she decided she didn't want to either.<br />

I love these beautiful old homes! We wanted to do a ghost tour while we were there, but Rhys was too young for some of them. We decided to do the tour of the old city jail. It was pretty awesome, but at the same time a little gruesome..........none of us enjoyed the tales of brutality to the prisoners. It was a very old jail dating back to the civil war, so prisoners were not treated well there. Still, it was kind of fun when the lady doing the tour (who, by the way, was PERFECT for the job with her gravelly voice and scary demeanor) told some of the ghost stories of the place. Rhys seemed to enjoy himself and even laughed right in the middle of one of her stories! Here we are in front of the jail. </div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><br />

This will be our last trip to Georgia, since Holli and John will be moving to Chicago soon. We have loved the trips we have made there to visit them, and are excited to visit them Chicago in the future. We had so much fun, even with Jeff breaking his toes. Obviously that wasn't a fun part of the trip, but in spite of it, we had a great time. My most favorite moment of the trip was when I put Rhys to bed one night and as I lay next to him he grabbed me around the neck and snuggled up to me and fell asleep. So sweet. Thanks Holli, John and Rhys for having us, and making it so fun!</div>Jolynnhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/02737781521006831056noreply@blogger.com7tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4434101376830300018.post-3249126184094550142011-06-05T10:09:00.000-07:002011-06-05T19:14:55.550-07:00Visits With LexiDuring the March Madness craze Lexi and her friend Dallas came down for the BYU basketball game on a Friday night. Unfortunately Jimmer couldn't pull this one off, and they drove all that way just to see the Cougs get beat. But I guess they still had fun. Especially since they came to our house after the game and we had dinner together. I had gotten a Bountiful Basket that day with an Asian pack, so I was excited to wow her and her friend with an exotic Asian dish. Everything was looking good, but when I added the fresh ginger, I just wasn't getting any ginger flavor. Now as many of you know, ginger is pretty strong, especially fresh. Well, the dish was really tasting kind of bland, so I kept grating more fresh ginger into it, with no results. Very strange. Anyway, the dinner was not as wonderful as I had envisioned, and we were all adding salt and pepper to jazz up the flavor a little. We had a nice evening, but I felt a little bad that the dinner was kind of a flop. It was only the next morning when I realized that I had been grating the Jerusalem Artichokes (which are pretty tasteless) that I had gotten a few weeks before in <em>another</em> Bountiful Basket, into my Asian dish! They look almost exactly like fresh ginger, so I didn't even realize what I was doing. In hindsight, I should have figured it out, but I was getting kind of flustered about the whole thing and was a little stressed trying to have everything perfect. It's pretty funny to think about now, and we all had a good laugh about it!<br />
<br />
Then In April, Lexi and her roommate, Amanda came for the night on their way to Phoenix to participate in Pat's run. It seems like every year Lexi manages to come home either on her birthday, or close enough to it that we can have a little celebration. I let her pick the dinner menu and she chose steak so that's what we had. I tricked her and told her I didn't have time to make a cake, but there was a poppy seed bread left over from Christmas in the freezer that we could have. I could tell she was a little disappointed at that. So when I brought out her favorite cake she was pretty happy.<br />

I brought the kids each a stuffed turtle and they loved them. I tried to get a picture of them with their turtles, but it's harder than you think. Isaac wouldn't quit doing silly things with his, and of course Finley had to do whatever Isaac did. <div style="border-bottom: medium none; border-left: medium none; border-right: medium none; border-top: medium none;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgXdeLcFUnq-AS02VL51_7Xzv1T6iQi4giBVGWx6dNn6kPymzH2Upy0njLhYxvwMcSa7cbkTCFYCQ9pKJbTGc6iTf2BQ4o00-sUpcgnHIBSdY_twb3ODtUK8GuM1z1CccUaFfp6XaH5u7E/s1600/IMG_0060.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="clear: left; cssfloat: left; float: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="213" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgXdeLcFUnq-AS02VL51_7Xzv1T6iQi4giBVGWx6dNn6kPymzH2Upy0njLhYxvwMcSa7cbkTCFYCQ9pKJbTGc6iTf2BQ4o00-sUpcgnHIBSdY_twb3ODtUK8GuM1z1CccUaFfp6XaH5u7E/s320/IMG_0060.JPG" t8="true" width="320" /></a></div><br />

There was a cute little book that went with the turtles, so I read that to them a few times.<br />

Since it was <em>sort of </em>close to Sareny's birthday, and since we wanted to see her open her presents, we had a little <em>pre-birthday </em>party.<br />

Sareny loves jump roping at school during recess, so we got her two jump ropes. A big long one that has to be turned by two people, and another for just her by herself. It took her a couple of weeks to master that one, but she did it. All weekend though, we had to turn the big long one so she could jump 24/7. It got to where we tied one end to the door knob so only one person would have to stand and turn.<br />

</div>We spent a fun day there and went out to dinner later. It was a nice weekend and I'm glad that Shell and Rand could come to visit us. I'm so grateful to have a sister. We often say we don't know what we would do without each other. We love our brothers, but sometimes you just need a sister!Jolynnhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/02737781521006831056noreply@blogger.com7tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4434101376830300018.post-31211683186976026272011-05-01T10:33:00.000-07:002011-05-01T10:33:12.592-07:00Finally........I know everyone is wondering why I didn't keep my New Year's resolution to blog more often..........well, ask yourselves how many of you kept your's to exercise more or lose weight? I rest my case. I haven't kept those ones either. But about the blogging, we got a new camera for Christmas and JUST NOW got around to setting it up so I can download my pictures. I know, we stink.<br />
<br />
So anyway........right after the holidays we took a quick trip up to see our parents. We had time to take my parents to Provo for dinner one night and took them to see Jake and Liz and their boys, and their sort of new house that my parents had never seen. Lexi came over too, and we all went out to dinner at Texas Roadhouse. Yum! And thus began the first breaking of theNew Year's Resolution to lose weight..........<br />
Here are a few pictures from that weekend:<br />
