I was just thinking this morning about our dog Panda. She is sometimes makes me feel guilty just by looking at me. I imagine her saying, "Mom, when are you going to take me for a walk? or Mom, that milk in your cereal bowl sure looks good! Are you giving it to me? or Mom, please, please hurry and let me out the door!" These are times that I don't really enjoy her. But at times, she is a comfort as she sits by me and sleeps, or barks at a stranger passing by. She always loves me no matter what. Aren't dogs amazing that way!

Trip to see our Michigans
I am still new at posting so I didn't get the text with the pictures but-I wanted to make a slide show again because there were so many good pics. We had so much fun and enjoyed our time with Ryan, Liz, Collin and Ashlyn more than words can say. Thank you for your hospitality and love.
We went to a Michigan game with Ryan and sat or should I say stood in the student section-what an experience-awesome! The stadium is HUGE!! We learned some new cheers that we have yet to try at the BYU games.
On Tuesday we went to a petting zoo, the Ford museum in Detroit and this great place for burgers and ice cream-the name escapes me.
Apple orchard on Wednesday-so fun! We had pumpkin doughnuts and cider-Wow were they delicious! As you can tell the food was a highlight for me.
What made all these adventures so wonderful was that we were with our kids and grandkids. We cherish the time we spend with them because it doesn't come as often as we would like-but it does come so we're grateful.

4th of July
As you may know, the 4th of July is second only to Christmas for our family. My Mom created the traditions-going to the (we added the balloon launch this year) parade, BBQ, rest, then fireworks. I really miss her!! I am thankful for good traditions like the 4th. Family and friends, parades, BBQs, and fireworks-what could be better. We sure miss our Michigans though! How grateful I am for this great country and what freedoms we have here. All of this came at a cost and it is good to stop and contemplate the sacrifices of so many that have made our lives so good.
Trip to San Fran
Jeff and I went to San Francisco the last week of June and ate and ate! (I saw Courtney Cox at a restaurant we went to-of course the company was paying for the meal-how else could we eat at a restaurant that Courtney Cox would be at?!) It was very cold but we had a great time!
