Bike ride up Provo Canyon

A good life is when you assume nothing, do more, smile often, dream big, laugh a lot, and realize how blessed you are with what you have. Zig Ziglar

Today Scott and I went on a bike ride up Provo Canyon. It was the perfect weather. I went to Karve this morning. First time in 5 weeks. It was a little hard. When I got home Scott wanted to go on a bike ride. It was good to get out on our bikes. I am a little slow for Scott but he his patient with me. We sat by the river and enjoyed the river and the beautiful weather. We live so close to the Canyon, We need to take more advantage of it.

Scott's 58th Birthday

 Happy birthday! You are my everything! Life is good with you. You have face challenges that make you the man you are today. You see life "just right" you believe in and trust your God. You're strong, you're kind, and you're good. Our children are so blessed to have you as their father. I hope your birthday includes a beautiful bike ride and all your birthday wishes come true!

I choose YOU. And I'll choose YOU over and over and over. Without pause, without a doubt, in a heartbeat. I'll keep choosing YOU. Happy birthday Scott! Today was a fun day celebrating YOU! 

Thank you everyone for your thoughtful birthday wishes. I had a great day today. Started out with a meditating bike ride up Provo Canyon and then spent the day with Barb.

Cards are a bid deal in our family. A tradition that Scott has carried on from his family. I love a good card. Scott got some really sweet cards from his children. 

For you, Dad on your birthday- If everyone had a father like you, what a wonderful world this would be...
Because then, everyone would grow up knowing they were safe, protected. and loved...
Everyone would know what it means to have someone to believe in-someone who believes in you, too...
Everyone would have the chance to make the most of themselves and be the best they could be...
Everyone would be given the opportunity, and the joy, that our family's fen given...
...by having a father as supportive, as caring, as simply wonderful as you. Happy Birthday with love.

Scott is a great father, good man and a wonderful Husband we are all so best because of the love he so freely gives.

Day trip to the Cabin

Saturday Scott and I went to the cabin to check on things. We had a beautiful day in the mountains. Sun was shining and we all know how much I love the sun! We stopped at Costa Vida for take out. I love the small Mango Chicken salad with extra rice and Scott always gets and Vegetarian burrito on corn tortilla smothered. We ate lunch at the cabin and played a few rounds of Skip Bo. Two out of three and I think I won two. Here is what I posted on Instagram.
  

Real men know how to drive this thing! 1975 Snowcat. I adore him. He is cute! Beautiful day in the mountains.#elderfamilycabin I have been seeking to simplify and find order and gratitude in all areas of my life. Here's a thought worth sharing. " In offering GRATITUDE for our REAL lives we discover how to change them for the better. As we embrace simplicity, we learn LESS is truly MORE." This freedom encourages us to bring ORDER to our affairs and cultivate harmony in our inner world. Going at our OWN PACE, Learning to recognize our LIMITATIONS appreciating our PROGRESS , we weave the lessons into the fabric of our daily moments, until they become a part of us."-Sarah Ban Breathnach #happylife#elderfamilyevents #insperation#thanksscottforlovingme #perfectday#vintage

Last day in Disney World

Harry Potter in Universal Studio Florida Nov 2013

At Universal’s Islands of Adventure 

The Charming Village of HOGSMEADE

Nestled at the foot of Hogwarts™ castle is the wizarding village of Hogsmeade™, where you can stroll the streets and explore all of the fascinating shops and eateries. Wander through the classrooms and corridors of Hogwart, and soar above the castle with Harry Potter™ on the groundbreaking ride, Harry Potter and the Forbidden Journey. 

 We ate at Mythos Restaurant and Loved it.

I loved this part of the Park and hope to go back with my children or grandchildren.
