ShoshoneFalls
I have never been there and we have heard that there was really a lot of water right now. So, we went with Grandma and Grandpa, Kell's family and Quincy and Gracie. It was a pretty powerful sight. Seeing all that water. Beautiful
They have had alot of rain here and we arrived in time to enjoy some of it. We saw this rainbow out of the window one rainy day. We could see the whole thing, the camera couldn't. Sage took this picture. I thought it looked pretty cool. We could see where the light hit the ground. I wanted to go see if there was a pot of gold there :)!

We Made It
After trevailing through the heat of Texas, the construction in Colorado, rainstorms of Wyoming, and the traffic in Utah, we have finalled arrived to the famous Gem State. It was an Ok trip, just too long to sit in the car, especially when you are just a kid, but we did get to listen to magic treehouse books on CD and watch some exciting movies (I only listened).
Someone has forgetton to tell them here that it is summertime, because it has been raining since we have arrived, which translates to no swimtime (suntan time) and playing indoors. Hopefully, it will clear up soon and the real fun can begin. However, it is nice and green here.
Outside the back door at mom and dad's
Sage has already adopted one of my mom's outside cats. He is a sweet little guy that just wants to snuggle. Sage has named him Pepper and wants to know if she can take him home

New Tile
so, right before our trip for the summer, I got this hairbrained idea to tile my sunroom. Well, actually, I had been debating about for a while. Then a friend of mine came over and convinced me to get started. So, once I started, I had to finish. It looks alot better than nasty 70's linoleam that was in there. I still have to put the base boards up, but here is the tile. Don't notice the mistakes.
Sage, an artist and a poet
Toward the end of school, Sage's class had an art and poetry day. The kids read poems they had written with lights turned low and all the parents as an audience. Each child had written a little biography about themselves as introduction and then read their poems.
Emotion
Red is a color of peacefulness.
It sounds like a cracling fire.
It taste like ice cream strawberry syrup.
It smells like big red roses.
It looks like my dad's red t-shirt.
It feels like my soft red blanket.
Cheetah
Cheetahs are so big and fast,
in the race they won't be last.
Cheetahs have many a spot.
They live in a place that's really hot.
Cheetahs have 4 paws,
on each they have 5 claws.
After, the poem reading we had snacks and were able to look at around at their art projects. They had learned about different artist, and as they did they created art similar. For Divinci, they drew a "Mona Lisa", for Monet, a watercolor, for Michaleangelo they painted upside down, nder their desks. Sage didn't have nearly as much fun at school all year as she did her last 2 weeks getting ready for the art show.
Great Job, Sage
Thanks Mrs. Rodgers!!!

Sundays, always the hardest day of the week
I had one of those days yesterday. It is always fun to see how crazy things can get sometimes!!
In my efforts to get to church on time, which didn't happen, I had a wrinkle that was bugging me. I did have a jacket as well as a blouse on, so I thougt I could iron that wrinkle out with out taking off the shirt, guess again. I have a big blister on my chest.
Later, after church, I was trying to make cookies for my neighbor who so generously mowed our lawn after he was done mowing his. I wanted to make sugar cookies. I went online and found a recipe that had several reviews that were good, so I tried that. My cookies didn't turn out quit like I had anticipated.
Lastly, I have been repainting a storage shelf for the girls toys. I was almost done, it needed one more coat, but I didn't have time to finish Saturday and didn't want to work on it on Sunday. So, it has just been sitting out in the back yard waiting for me to finish, well, last night about 3 am. It started a down pour and when I got up this morning the rain had creeped underneath my paint job, because I didn't prime it, and now it is a do over!!
Anyway, life goes on.
