Oldroyd Family Life and Times of an Oldroyd

Yep – it’s a tent in the family room… Don’t ask.

Kiki and I went on a date – well to target, walmart, and chick-fillet. We had fun.

Please oh please go to bed Abbi.

I hate monkey-butt, even if I don’t know exactly what it is, how you get it and how to get rid of it.

Pumpkin magic time.

Went with the kids to Kennecott Copper mine and then went exploring up Bingham canyon. There were deer everywhere. Lexi was able to get within 3 feet of one before it took off. We also saw some wild turkeys that the kids chased. We had a great time.

Mom’s grave marker – We visited it after Grandpa’s funeral. It turned out far better than I had hoped. I thought it would be nice, but it is much better that I envisioned it. Mom, I love you and miss you. I’m glad that you are back with your daddy. I hope you and he had a great day today.

We had Sunday dinner at our house before the viewing. We made a veritable feast. All of the kids helped out in one way or another and we had a ton of food and it was delicious (if I do say so myself). The pot roast wasn’t as good as Mom’s but it was one of the better ones we have made. I had a blast. Based on the picture you would think that the kool-aid was the center of attention… and hey why not? Lexi makes a mean kool-aid.
Life is certainly good.

Comfy Tally? That is my spot on the bed. You don’t have a spot. Remember?

Just a dorky kid at Lexi’s performance.
