WE HAVE A NEW PROJECT. WE JUST CAME BACK FROM SAFFORD WITH A LOAD OF BRICK PAVERS. AFTER MUCH DISCUSSING, LOOKING AT PICTURES, MEASURING, FIGURING, DISCUSSING, PLANNING ETC., WE DECIDED TO DO SOMETHING ABOUT THE AREA BETWEEN THE BACK OF THE HOUSE AND 'THE NEST'. WE FIRST THOUGHT ABOUT COVERING IT WITH FLAGSTONE, BUT FINALLY DECIDED TO MAKE A PATHWAY AND A SMALL SITTING AREA AT THE BACK OF THE SPACE, AND THEN DAD IS GOING TO BUILD SOME GROW BOXES TO GO ALONG THE SIDES. WE HOPE TO ACCOMPLISH THIS IN A WAY THAT NO WEEDS WILL GROW UP THROUGH THE BOXES. WE ARE THEN GOING TO TRY GROWING VEGETABLES, SOME FLOWERS, WHATEVER WE CAN COME UP WITH. IT IS NICE WEATHER TODAY, AND I HOPE WE CAN GET THIS FINISHED BEFORE IT TURNS HOT, WHICH WON'T BE LONG NOW. WISH US LUCK!
WE WENT TO TUCSON ON SATURDAY. WE DID A LITTLE SHOPPING AND ATE AT 'LONG JOHN SILVERS'. THEN WE WENT TO THE CONCERT FOR THE REGIONAL CHOIR THAT JARED WAS IN. IT STARTED AT 5:00, WHICH WAS GOOD. IT WAS REALLY GOOD AND NOT TOO LONG. DR. LUNT LED THE CHOIR. HE IS SUCH A HAM. DARVIL & TERESA HAD SPENT FRI. NIGHT IN MESA, SO THEY CAME AROUND THAT WAY.
TODAY WAS NORMA NATIVIDAD'S FUNERAL. SHE HAD 7 CHILDREN AND 7 BROTHERS AND SISTERS, ALL STILL LIVING, SO I'M SURE THERE WAS A BIG CROWD. THE CANCER STARTED IN HER LEGS AND WAS VERY AGGRESSIVE. SHE WASN'T SICK VERY LONG.
SATURDAY IS FAWN BRYCE'S FUNERAL. SHE HAD A MASSIVE STROKE AND DIDN'T LINGER LONG AFTERWARD. SHE NEVER FULLY RECOVERED FROM THE STROKE SHE HAD A FEW YEARS AGO. ROGER SMITH, HER BROTHER, STILL CAN'T SPEAK AFTER THE STROKE HE HAD. I GUESS STROKES RUN IN THAT FAMILY.
BECKY, THE BLOG ALWAYS LOOKS SO CUTE! YOU DO A GOOD JOB.
SIGNING OFF FOR NOW, LOVE, MOM

Yes, I was sad to see Norma and Fawn's obituaries in the Courier. I wasn't around Norma that much growing up but I remember she had alot of energy and enthusiasm. And Fawn will always be special because I grew up with her being in our ward. Time marches on! That sounds like a big project in your backyard. I'm sure it will be beautiful Linda style when you are all done.
Wow, lots of news. Sad about Fawn and Norma Natividad. The pavers project will look nice when you're done, I'm sure. Then since you'll be experts you can come and lay our pavers!
