And How was your day?

So Thursday was Valentine's Day.  It was bitter-sweet for my daughter and her family because they discovered someone had broken into their garage and stolen a lot of their possessions. It's never nice to have these types of experiences happen, especially to family members.  Well, life goes on and we have to deal with these problems as best as we are able.  It isn't easy.  The insurance will pay for some, but still there is the deductible and sometimes the things lost have special meanings to them.  It goes to show that even in a little peaceful community, bad stuff happens to good people.

So then I took the kids their Valentine's surprises on Wednesday to help them not to feel quite so badly.  Brian also got a little surprise as we were relaxing about 9:00 at nite.  The doorbell rang and when he answered someone had left him a Valentine surprise at the door.  It was anonymus with a card to Brian and a bag of goodies attached to this balloon.
So he was happy about that.

I also had a nice little surprise from the hubby as I got home from work.


Red carnations and white roses.  Very pretty.  Then we went to dinner and had Japanese food.  Spencer likes his place in Orem better than this one we went to in American Fork.  But it was closer...Oh, well, maybe next time we will go there. So enjoy the weekend.  I will be a little more relaxed because I finished writing all the college curriculum courses I had been assigned to write.  What a lot off my plate!  I am relieved!

A little Bit of Random...

Ok, so I know I haven't blogged in a a couple of weeks.  So a little random update.  Besides going to work I haven't done much.  The reason being is that my job assignment has been very demanding in the last few months and to make a long story short, when I get home, I am as close to being "dead to the world" as I can ever remember.  It is so intense everyday with deadlines that literally are killing me.  It has been hard writing college curriculm and trying to do it well.  Not easy for me.  So I have one class left to write and I hope after that I can go back to my normal work load and work type.  So these pictures are probably mostly about basketball because that is about the only place I have gone to.  So here are some pics and a few random shots of what is going on in Utah...namely, snow...snow, more of the white stuff.

So that's it in our life, basketball, work, snow...snow everyday more snow...
