This week mom and I did a little driving around. On Thursday we went over to the temple and did a session and then saw one of mom's YW girls (Ashley Harris) get married. It was a very nice sealing. It rained good ole Texas buckets that day and I thought of what a hard time the photographer was going to have. When we came out of the temple though, the rain let up for a bit and allowed them to snap some pictures. Funny how that seems to work. On Saturday we ventured into Deep East Texas to visit Bug for his Birthday. We had a very nice drive up and back, and though the thermometer was showing 101, it didn't seem that hot without the humidity that we have on the coast. It is really beautiful up there, and certainly warrants some more looking around at some of the territory. If any of you ever want some good Italian food and happen to be in Nacogdoches, Auntie Pastas is your place. It is housed in what was originally an ice house (back in the days when the ice man brought ice around to your ice box, not a beer place). The construction of heavy wood and brick reminded me a lot of going to Sugarhouse with my dad to Hygeia Ice to get a big huge bag of ice to bring home to make homemade ice cream. Anyway the food was great, Benjamin turned a year older and we had a nice visit. Mom and I are still working on moving things around the house, but things are looking up. You can actually see the bed in the Blue Room, and the floor in both the orange room and green room. Mom finished 3 quilts this week which I will let her tell you about, but that completes some of her WIP's for the summer. This week should be as normal as weeks go. It is hard to believe this week will get us into August. Time flys on wings of something or other. The fly part is certainly accurate. Hope you all have a good week.
