Quick San Diego Trip February 2018

I took a quickly little trip down to San Diego to help Nicki with her move to Japan. She had her surgery and wasn't able to lift anything so I was more of just a pack mule. Nona was in love with Selma again and jumping on the tramp. We got everything on Nicki's short list for me and then made time to take Elder Newville to lunch (at Panda Express) and a walk around the beach to see the pupping season. We were talking and wondering out loud how big the pups were when just born to guess the age of the ones we were seeing when one of the moms had a baby. It was pretty much the same size as all the others so it must have happened just a day or two before for most of them.
Nona was a champ on the trip. We had a cancelled flight from our layover, but they luckily had a play area to keep her busy and entertained for a few hours.

Winter on the water

Cannon took my phone out one evening while the sun was going down. Even though we don't get in the water for months during the winter we still love living here on the lake. What a blessing to see all the fun wild life and the beauty of our surroundings. It sure is uplifting to look outside and feel the love our Father in Heaven has for us in the beauty of the earth that was created.

Sleeping Baby January 2018

Nona was busy cleaning out her bed before she finally fell asleep. I love watching her sleep and when she breaths so heavy from being in a deep sleep.

Basketball Winter 2017

 Lyla and Cannon played basketball this year with the Dupont league. Lyla really liked her team and her coach this year. She is getting more aggressive and played really hard. Cannon did great this year, but I didn't take any pictures of his team. He had coach Tammie again from soccer and she had been so great with all those boys.

Cannon also played church ball with the ward and it was a short team full of deacons. They played the Steilacoom team that was pretty packed with priest and friends that played in high school. We sure tried hard though.

Blanket Tent

Cannon and Lyla made this blanket tent for Nona in the sunroom. Everyone came out sweaty because the warm floor made it way to hot in the tent. Still so much fun. Everyone wants to do things for Nona. It is hard to not spoil that little girl.
