Idaho Jan

This is Art and Jan my husband's wonderful parents. Art will be 87 and Jan will be 90 this year. Jan still rides her recumbent bike (3 wheeler) and Art has always worked hard physically so he has the body of a very fit 40 year old! This is Becky, Dale's brother's wife. She is a lot of fun to be with. They have property out of town at Powell Butte, Oregon, and love their flower garden. Dale is enjoying the weather at Bruce and Becky's place. A great road trip for us. Don't you love those flourescent cups? We had our names on them so we didn't get mixed up. Bruce and Becky built their own log cabin home and enjoy the outdoors.

This is my son's wife Natalie with baby Lily. She introduces me to the coolest stores in Utah and she's lots of fun to hang out with. Next time you're in SLC, check out NPS Market Place. Low prices for food make it a fun place to shop.

I could hardly believe it when I saw these in our garden. RED TOMATOES! This has to be a first! We tried a different "Early Siletz" tomato and it actually ripened before the end of August. I think we'll plant those again next year. Usually we have to pick them green in September an let them ripen in the storage room. They tasted wonderful!

One afternoon when I was in SLC, I debated as to whether I would go shopping at a store or not. I decided to listen to Dave Ramsey on hulu and this is what I came up with. Town Hall for Hope. So I sat and listened to that for about an hour and a half and got more inspiration on getting out of debt. So consequently, I didn't go out shopping which was very good for my purse.

This is my nephew Jeromy Kemp an his two cute children Grace and Keegan. His wife Carrie was hiding from the camera. Carrie said that Marg and I are looking more alike all the time. I think she is right! Jeromy's son Keegan took this picture. At least our heads aren't cut off!

So nice to have a pool at the motel in SLC that we stayed last week. Dale had a safety training so I got to go and hang out for a few days. Natalie and the children came to play in the water on Thursday. Matthew is stunned as he watches his mom blow up the air toys! Taylor had fun too and the temperature of the water was just right. This is Evey. She was the one who had a great tan from swimming in their town pool in Lehi, Utah. Here we have baby Lily. Dark hair and complexion as white as Snow White. She even enjoyed the water.

There was a full rainbow the other day. After a nice rainstorm, we saw color in the sky. I don't think my camera does it justice. :)
