TOO MUCH TO TITLE

It was a busy few days!
July 3rd, Got up early:
Arrived where?
Mindy and John's New House!!!!!
Beautiful! Very Exciting!
They had worked really hard getting all moved. We were really amazed at all they had done. I felt bad to not be there to help her put her kitchen in. I couldn't imagine how she could put her kitchen away without me! Surely she needed me for that. How would she know where to put everything? But then.....I saw her new kitchen......no, she didn't need my help she has about 6 times the cupboard space that I do and has a pantry! It was a beautiful thing! Just a side note...I have never felt bad that I didn't have a big beautiful house. I really have been happy just where I am but.....if there was one thing from her house that I could pick up and move to mine.....it would be the.......can you wait......it would be the laundry room.
You should really see the laundry room.Jessica & Jordan came that night. I felt bad because by that time, I was sick-on the couch.
I guess sleeping 6 hours is not enough for two days.
4th of July JESSICA'S 10 K FREEDOM RUN
Got up early-really I was too excited for her to sleep very well. My heart ached as she put on her shoes because I really wanted to run with her. She had worked so hard to be ready-it was so exciting and I was so proud of her! Running has become an emotional thing as morning after morning for years I have tried to get my body to work with my will and mind.
I have most of what it takes, my leg just doesn't want to follow.
I was so teared up I could hardly see through the camera lens.

(Obviously I didn't realize the date was wrong on my camera either!)
Jessica's early Birthday,
we also got to celebrate Jessica's birthday while we were there too.
We made her a cake and had a little
party while enjoying the 4th.
We went to the movie, golfed, cleaned,
and painted the
old house across the street.
The kids were creative with the hose and dirt outside don't you think!

We stayed up late again, just eating left overs and sandwiches....just enjoying the time together because we were up early and back home Sunday morning. Hal had to be at church-he thinks the ward can't run without him now. (Just kidding, he knew-he'd be gone the next week)
After church, Tyra and I went to Mom's and Dad's to have a Birthday Party!
It was her 75th. Melanie and Laura came. It was fun to see them and have a cookout in the backyard! There are somethings that shouldn't ever change.
