4th of July!

This year- 4th of July was interesting. We finished our last activity as members of the activities committee in our ward, planning the anual 4th of July breakfast. We had a great committee, who were diligent and joined us preparing the breakfast at 6 in the morning. A few even came at 5:30 AM. The heartly breakfast turned out delicious, with strawberry and whipped cream pancakes, scrambled eggs, all kinds of fruit, juice, and sausage and ham. We had a committee member that organized a group of elderly ladies that tap dance and perform to come perform patriotic numbers. We had a good turn-and had alot of compliments afterward. We are going to really miss the wonderful committee and our wonderful ward.

David had to work through the day after the breakfast, while I unpacked boxes, and then fireworks, we broke our routine. For the last 3 years we have gone to the well -known, fun Folsom Rodeo on the 4th of July.
I had spoken earlier in the week to our dear friends, Tiffany and Kevin Wadell, and they kindly invited us to join a group they were going to watch fireworks with again. We joined them and had fun visiting and the firework show kept going and going like the energizer bunny. Thanks to Tiff and Kev for having us.

MOVED!!

After many months of analyzing and weighing out issues and looking into relocating out of state. We have decided to stay here and camp (figuratively) in Rancho Cordova, CA- the Sacramento area. If you want our new address, please email me. This is an open blog, and I never know who is going to view it. We weren't ready for all the issues involved in making the big move out of state yet, however unless things dramatically change with the local sacramento economy in the near future ( like the next 3-4 months), that day will arrive sooner than we anticipate.

We got 200 feet extra room in this new abode than we had in our last place, and our rent is $200 dollars cheaper- so we have no complaints on our end. We also love, love that David could litterally bike or walk (even though it would be a long walk) to his work.

I have decided that besides painful medical and dental work, moving has to be the most tedious, lame, drawn out event in life. Spending so much time buying boxes, transporting furniture, and taping up boxes is grueling.
