July!

Ok - It's almost the last day of July - wow!

Here's what I did this month...

Went to Montana for a work meeting/retreat. It was pretty fun, too bad that we spent most of the time in meetings and not able to enjoy a lot. Maybe next time. Had to take a picture of the Safeway for dad. We arrived on July 1st which I found out was Canada day, and when you work with Canadians you get to celebrate... did you know there were more words to their national anthem the "Oh-Canada"?
Th ducks were my visitors in the morning when I opened my window. They left quick when I didn't have anything to give them.

Some pictures of Montana.... and a Mahanna license plate for Janna.

Our GNO - hair show!

4th of July at the Leishman's... Fun Fun Fun

What do we do when it's 100 degrees' outside... hide in the basement!

Misc Pics

I finally got around to cleaning off my camera and I forgot to add a couple of my favorites from our trip to Idaho Falls.

The picture of Claire just cracks me up. I don't know if she's mad or practicing to be America's Next Top Model
Claire's goose was checking us out too
Idaho Falls squirrels remind me of my grandpa Crook... he would watch them run around his house all day.
Claire wouldn't stop chasing the ducks... her deep "quack, quack" was too cute.

Only in Utah moments...

As some of you may know, today is Pioneer day. In the state of Utah it is an official holiday. Most businesses are closed today unless they are a company not based in Utah ...ex - mine!

But I have to share my two "only in Utah" moments I had yesterday:

Walking thru Costco, passed one of the tasting vendor stands where the lady is saying..."Come celebrate Pioneer Day with the food they ate... Beef Jerky" (side note... it was Teriyaki flavored - Just like the pioneers ate???)

My co-worker (Jensen) was talking to one of our vendors that is in Logan. They are working on a project and Jay (the vendor) said, "Ok - we'll finish this on Friday. Jensen said, "We can do it tomorrow (thursday). Jay said - "You're open tomorrow.... Jensen "Why not it's only Thursday" Jay - "It's a holiday -Pioneer Day" Jensen - "What - It's a Holiday?" This is when I started laughing and waited till he got off the phone to explain to my Canadian friend what happens in Utah on the 24th, and how it's bigger then the 4th.

Utah .... gotta love it
