Here we are at Monday again, hope this doesn't become a bad habit. It has been a great week though. My two Aunts from NM came on Sunday. Bruce had made arrangements for me to take them to an event on Tuesday in the Tabernacle. The Choir was singing and eight or nine local musicians. It was very impressive and the music was wonderful. The Tabernacle Choir in the tabernacle is such a musical treat. I think we all were so appreciative to Bruce for the opportunity to go. We had great seats downstairs, I think the ones upstairs would have been rather warm. Then on Saturday, I again took the wonderful Aunts to Seven Peaks, a water park. We met Bruce and family there for several hours. It was wonderful to watch the older and younger kids having such a great time. I enjoyed holding the babies and it was a very pleasant and relaxing afternoon. We then went to eat at Cafe Rio and then I took two exhausted aunts home.
Marissa and Mason went to Phoenix for a week to see family, and I am sitting with the GrandCats. They have to be medicated twice a day, old GrandCats. Anyway, that night when I went to bed, I reached under the lamp to turn it on, there was a small thing, I couldn't see it hanging down, I thought it was a pull to turn the lamp on. All of a sudden, there was a LOUD shrill sound coming from the pull. I was pushing buttons everywhere, to no avail.. Frantic, I had pulled it out of its slot. I couldn't get it back on, I had to lay the lamp down and unhook the pin from the shade to be able to put it back on. All the while, this shrill noise coming from this small object, it sort of looked like a small flashlight. Boy, was I happy to get that thing put back together. I guess Marissa keeps it by the side of the bed as a security thing. Perhaps, all women should carry them in their purses, that is if you are afraid of attacks of some sort. Oh, by the way, the GrandCats weren't all that happy about the noise either... I was sure I was going to have another encounter with the local authorities. Ha! Ha! Ha!
Ashley and Sam are off to Missouri. If you have a chance, say an extra prayer for them.
I did get to see my brother for a few minutes on Friday PM.

My friend had one of those key chain alarm things. They are loud! I would have scared myself if I had turned it on just before bed! Sorry you had to experience that alone! I'm glad you got to spend time with my family. I am anxiously awaiting for them to update their blogs with lots of fun stories and pictures. We are hoping to make it out to Utah next year sometime, but until then we will have to be pacified with blog info.
I enjoyed reading your blog this morning, Carroll. I got up at 3AM this morning; couldn't sleep, but now, after reading everyone's blog, it's 5AM, and NOW I'm sleepy. Bad timing.
Thanks again for playing chauffer for Mom and Patsy. I know they loved being with you and I appreciate all the help you've been.
Bruce
