A Little Bit of Everything

Eli is out of school for a school break so he came running with  me.    He is 40 lbs!  I think this is the last time I run with him.  He does give me a great workout pushing him 4 miles and up all those hills!

At the top of the hill there is some new construction and Eli loves every minute of it.  There is always some type of construction vehicle moving.  Excavators are his favorite! 

He had a great time watching the road grader.

We heard the high school band play, so we had to run over there and listen.

We started running again and met the band in our neighborhood.   We had to stop and rest, I mean watch the band  🙂   Time to teach Eli how to play!

That afternoon we stopped at mom and dad’s house and walked through the car show.

Bryan stopped in as well.

Paul, Bryan, and Aaron came to the show.

Paul had to take my picture in front of this truck.  Reminded him of a truck from his childhood.

Eli was getting bored of the cars until this truck pulled in!

A fire truck!  Another favorite.

Crazy June Weather!

I had a few things to do at the stores today.  Eli got straight to work.  He set the tables with baskets.

All the tables with baskets.

He filled the ice machine with ice.

He grabbed his favorite snack.  Cheese.

Played with water.

When we started out the day it was sunny and only a few white clouds in the sky.   An hour later it started hailing!  And not just a little hail, it looked like it was snowing.

The hail was the size of quarters.  It left dents in my car.

A river of hail.

 

 

We Went Flying!

For Paul’s Birthday he wanted to fly a plane.  So we did, but waited until it was warmer outside.

This is the only picture of our pilot.  He was 19!  He looked like he was 14!

The pilot took us down the runway, up in the air, and handed the controls to Paul. 

The view of Utah!

Flying over I-15.

Me in the back 🙂

After Paul flew, the pilot landed and Paul and I switched seats.  Paul was nice to include me in his birthday gift and I had a chance to fly the plane.

I’m flying this time.  Not too exciting.  But it was so fun to fly!
