Weekend Update

Big news this week is the arrival of a new baby sister on Green Road in Fruit Heights. I stopped in to Frank & Melissa's just after Frank and all the kids had returned from the hospital to see her and they were pretty excited.  No name for sure yet but she weighed 8lbs 9oz and was 21 inches long.  Frank say's she's beautiful with tiny little features.  Attached are a few shots of the kids. 

I had a quick visit with the doctor on Tuesday to review my latest MRI--good news in that he said the disk had mostly reabsorbed.  "No need to poke a hole in you!" he said which was excellent to hear.  Still a little irritation but good news is that it's healing and should be back to normal before too long! 

Friday night, I drove to Idaho.  It was a beautiful evening and them moon was near full.  You can't really tell from this shot but with the melted, then frozen snow, the moon reflected off the ice like glass.  This shot is from the gravel pit looking towards the house.  Both Friday and Saturday were spectacular with the moon and Venus and Jupiter shining intensely.  

Saturday, Dad and I took his new truck and went on a road trip to Star Valley--just driving and to get out and about.  It was a really nice drive and his truck is a smooth ride. The ice volcano is outside of Afton and looked like it was just made with a garden hose on a very tall pole! Lot's more snow over there than in Grace.  Both Dad and Mother are doing well and have been out riding trike/bike and walking in the warmer weather.  

Hope you all have a wonderful week!

PS - The old truck is all detailed and up for sale if anyone is interested, let me know.  I don't think I'll have a problem selling it but if anyone in the family wants it, I'll give you a better deal.
