News of the Cat Couple

Summer was late in coming. We were excited to take out our trailer again. We finally went to Crystal Hot Spring with Jay and Monica and family.  Our next trip was to Palisades in Sanpete County Utah.

On June 1st, we left for Arizona. The roads weren't too good and we had a bumpy ride.  We camped in Williams Arizona near Route 66 and took the train to the South Rim of the Grand Canyon.  Later, we went to the hot part of Arizona to Mesa to visit friends.

The rest of the summer was spent camping in the mountains in Utah and at Utah Lake. Before we hardly knew it, Fall is here. We took a 10 day trip to Green Bay Wisconsin to see my daughter and her family. They had just moved there from Utah since her husband's job took them there. They moved into a large beautiful home there. I wish it was not so far away. It is over 1500 miles. I enjoyed also visiting with my grandchildren, Savannah and Jacob. We took a little ride out to the Peninsula by Lake Michigan. I had never seen a great lake before. But it was cold there. So now we are just home for a while and Randy will have total hip replacement in January. Hopefully it will help with some of his pain.  I hope the winter goes fast, but it never does.

Hope you all have a happy winter and holiday season.

First Wedding Anniversary

Today is our one year anniversary. We met in October 2007 and Married May 16, 2009. We have had a very wonderful life together so far.

I can tell we are getting older though, but I hope we can have a few more years of camping and enjoying life.

So much has happened since I last wrote. Randy and I finally went on a couple of camping trips in April. The weather was fair but still not warm enough to camp in the mountains. We are planning a trip to Arizona the last part of May. We will camp in our Trailer near the South Rim, take the train. We also want to go to the Mesa area and visit friends. Later in the summer we plan to camp in the beautiful mountains of Utah.

I have a new grandson, Kelby Carrillo, he makes my 22nd. I consider Randy as his grandson and he has lots of inherited grandchildren. They love their Grandpa Randy.

Randy and I enjoyed a very Merry Christmas visiting with Jennifer in Seattle. Randy suprised me with a new wedding set. For now, we are waiting anxiously for Spring and Summer. We plan to travel in our new trailer to the South Rim in Arizona, Crystal Hot Springs in Utah and camping in the moutains of Utah.

We are also awaiting the birth of one grandchild and one great grandchild in May. One is a girl and the other a boy. We are expecting another great grandchild in July and another in August. Randy has been officially adopted into our family and he is Grandpa Randy to my grandchildren now. I wish their real grandpa could be here to see them (he does not live here on earth any longer.) Not all of them got to see their other grandpa as he left before they were born. I am glad that my grandchildren do have a grandpa here with Randy.

For now, we just spending our time at home and going out to eat and the movies occasionally. Our cats are doing fine and are or course they rule the house!

News of Randy and Me

It has been a long time since I have written in this blog.

Randy and I enjoyed an awesome summer camping and traveling. We went to California wine country. We enjoyed many camping trips to the mountains and lakes. We visited Zion's National Park. We got a new trailer and can't wait for spring to go camping and traveling some more.
Randy and I have been together for over two years and we have been married 6 months now. We are doing quite well but of course, we have aches and pains that come with getting older. Our minds still feel young, it's just our bodies that are going downhill. LOL

We are having Thanksgiving at our house with Tammy and her family and John and Kathy. For Christmas, we are giving each other a Christmas gift of going to Seattle and spending Christmas with Jennifer and her family.

We had fun on Halloween at Matt's house and even Randy got into the spirit by dying his hair green.

We want to wish you all a very happy Thanksgiving and a very Merry Christmas.

Summer Events

Since our wedding, Randy and I have gone on a cruise to Alaska, did a lot of camping and went to Reno and Santa Rosa CA. We enjoyed beautiful vineyards in the Napa Valley. We visited with a friend of Randy's from Scottsdale. We just loved the Pacific Ocean and we went to an automobile museum in Reno. A really large museum.

We have recently decided to purchase another travel trailer. It is so nice with lots of space and a queen sized bed and full shower. Summer is nearly over and we want to take our new trailer out before the snow flies. We still have our cats, but our Little Guy (the stray) no longer comes around and I fear he may have died. Hopefully, he just found a new home. Life is pretty good right now. Randy has to watch his blood sugar but he is doing pretty well.

Wedding Day

We had a wonderful day. Thanks to all who attened.
