Each time we have made a trip to Draper- we take a load of things down in the truck. We took our coffee table that Craig’s Father made in the 60’s. It looks great in our living room . We kept busy for a couple of days. We slept over Wednesday night, Thursday night and came back to the lake Friday night. We went shopping trying to get and idea in what we need to decorate our new place. We need a small desk for his office. I took the green dinning chairs I bought back to Pier one they were not the right color of green. They did have some pretty off white wing back chairs I ordered so hopefully they will work for us. I can take back if they don’t. I bought some rugs and thought they would work in our new place but they don’t look good with what I have going on. Trisha might like them in her new place. If not I will have to take them back. I have looked at lots of rugs and there is just so much blue and gray which I just don’t care for. Red is challenging to find right now in décor. Starting over in the basement will be much easier to decorate. We are having a hard time working with what we already have. Being patient is the challenge, it will come together in time. This is the fun part creating a new look. We did find a desk we liked at RC Willey and a sectional for the basement. I’m looking at bedding to find what I want for a boy's rooms. I would like a more masculine theme room for one of the bedrooms in the basement. I know Craig wants to put the safe door in that room which should be a fun to work with. We went to the Draper temple on Wednesday afternoon and performed sealings. It was fun to see friends from our old temple shift on Wednesday’s. Surprising there are quit a few we knew still serving there. Fun to see President Summers and President Brown. both were past temple presidents. President Brown was serving as Temple President when we were called as ordinance workers. Then President Summers served as temple president when were release four years later. President Summers and his wife lived in our corner canyon 6th ward. So fun to have him officiate our temple sealing session. President Brown and his wife live in our new subdivision that we just moved in. Just down the street from our home. There are quite a few couples in the ward that we already know, it will be fun when we actually go to church there to see the friends we already know. We are keeping our records in our Garden city Ward. Craig wants ts to finish serving in the bishopric for another year. So we will be driving back to Bear Lake for sure on the weekends. It is so nice to have our own place in the valley. Tasha called Wednesday night needing help with the kids, Bridger was hunting and she needed to work on her Ivy City shipment to Texas for the The Magnolia market in Texas next week. We’re all flying down on Tuesday so excited to go with my girls. I was able to help out at the last minute, picked Lincoln up at football and I went over to Trisha‘s house Karlee colored my hair she’s learning how to do hair. Lincoln and Winston played with Boston for a while. Little Annie was so darling she loved to play with the American dolls collected from Saydee and Karlee when they were her age, then I took all three home and put them to bed and stay there till midnight- until Tasha got home. So glad I was able to be there to help her out. Tasha looks so darling pregnant. She has been working on her baby’s room. It is so pretty. She had Craig put rockers in the old wing back chair I had for many years the coral color is very popular right now. What a fun idea and it turned out really fun- Craig did a good job putting the rockers on the chair legs. Thursday we got up early and went to the Sports-mall and worked out and played pickle ball till noon. It was fun to go to the sports-mall and play pickle ball with several other people that attend there- I had fun playing, I’m starting to get a little better on my pickleball skills. We ran errands and order trophies for the boys that learn to wakeboard and water ski this past summer. Lincoln and Boston got up on the wakeboard and Landon learned how to get up on one ski so we will get the trophies to them at Thanksgiving this year. A fun family tradition that Craig started with all the grandkids giving them trophies when they succeed in their water skills. We were busy the two days there. Friday we think are in the house hung a mirror in our bathroom and then we went out to the Choudhry home to visit I loaded up all the cowboy things and the China hutch that I had there in her basement for storage. They gave Shannon a lot of stuff I wish I still had I’m having a really hard time with rugs I wish that I kept my red rugs but good luck getting them back from her. I loaded up the cowboy stuff to bring to the lake to put in our bonus room upstairs is turning out really fun, I love the floating shelves that Craig made for our room. We took Michael and Jaxon to Chuck Rama for lunch yesterday. We haven’t been there for years Craig's mom gave us two gift cards so we needed to use them-you always eat way too much there but it was yummy. When got back from the Chaudhry’s home, Craig to take a nap, I played on the Internet looking at the classified ad for entertainment centers and rugs. We got back to the lake about 10 o’clock last night. Today is a beautiful fall day and I am having fun putting the cowboy décor things in the bonus room.
