Sighting of a rare and special thing....




Yes sightings of rare things do happen, some might even call it a miracle. But yes, it indeed happened. On July 13th, 2008 the Jackson family had Sunday dinner. No not popcorn, hotdogs, ramen or the like, a real sunday dinner with roast, mashed potatoes, a veggie and yorkshire pudding and of course gravy. The kids asked what this was...I reminded them that back when we used to live by the Bundersons in Springville we ate Sunday dinner like this every week. After we moved to Ferron, Sunday dinner hasn't been the same. In almost four years of living here, I think that on that fine day, of July 13th may have been the 5th time that we had Sunday dinner. Good things do come back to those who wait, I have been waiting for awhile for this and it was good. Note for anyone who cares...the raost isn't burnt, that was the result of a rub.... So for those of you out there , longing for sunday dinner of old...never give up hope, because miracles do happen!!!

Dog days...

Well here we are, first of July. No Football on TV only baseball. Not really a fan so, guess I have to go weed and do yard work I guess. Family is home so that is good, it is always nice to get them home and get back to regular life. Not really a fan of heat, starting to get heated up after a realatively cool start to summer. But guess we knew it was coming. Maybe I can sweat some of this weight off! Got Wii Fit, it is very interesting, seems to me more like a winter thing that would keep you active, too much to do outside while warm, but it is pretty fun none the less. I guess I will have to keep pulling the kids in the bike trailer on my bike in the dead heat of the day. Yes, Saylor wanted to go ride and so we did, actually not that bad but was warm no doubt.
