Weight Loss
About a year and a half ago I decided I was too heavy. I got out of breath doing simple things and I was on the verge of going to a size 24. I just couldn't handle that. I joined Weight Watchers. I need the accountabilty of getting on those scales every week and having Corlis look up at me and tell me how good I'm doing (or not). The program is wonderful and is a great way to change your life style. I have to say it is hard for me because when I want a hot fudge sundae an apple isn't going to cut it. But I've learned a lot about portion control and I really eat anything I want. I just don't eat everything in sight. I've lost 50 pounds about three times, but I'm determined to do it right this time. If you have any good recipes or need one maybe I can help you or you can help me. I would love to share tips and/or recipes.

Taylor and Mikayla are staying with us. They came up a few days after Allison and Scott's wedding. Mikki is having fun and staying really busy. I'm not so sure about Taylor. I think he's having a harder time this year.
We just had our yearly open house at the horse ranch on June 14, 2008. Mikayla participated in the flag ceremony and several other parts of the show. She was pretty nervous. She didn't want to drop her flag. She did great. She did carry a horseshoe in her back pocket. Taylor helped me take pictures. It was a fun afternoon.
Allison and Scott's wedding was beautiful. They got married on May 24, 2008. The weather was perfect. It wasn't too hot or too cold. It had been rainy, but the sun was shining for the wedding. Allison looked perfect and Scott was very handsome. The thing that made me happiest was that they were both so happy. They had written their own vowes and they were so special. I hope they wrote them down and kept them, because the two of them ought to read through them at least once a year on their anniversery. (Just my opinion, but then who's blog is this!) Family and friends were on hand to wish them well and support them as they started their life together. The food was wonderful. The caterer did a fantastic job. Jeff even commented on how good everything was. The photographer was a guy Allison had known from Idaho Falls. He was in her Grandma Knudson's ward. They had know each other since they were kids. That was interesting. I haven't seen the pictures yet so I can't tell you how they turned out, but I'm betting they will be super. Allison and Scott went to Italy for their honeymoon. I haven't heard a whole lot about it or seen any pictures. She just told me it was wonderful.
