The asking - scoot was covered with balloons, one night after an away game for VB.
Aubrey answered Kalob by decorating some of the bus,  for an away  track meet.

The group. It was the first real date for some in the group.

Of course, it isn't enough to go on a date in one evening.  Saturday was, starting at  2 pm,  Driving to Pocatello for buying crazy outfits, playing Lazer tag in teams, then Pizza Pie Cafe, then a movie....the girls did not want any ice cream, they felt the guys had spent enough money!!!!

year of the "scoot"

Aubrey King , Junior at Malad High School 2013-14

 Gotta have that helmet----

Okay now for fashion.
I left for the Elementary school before 7:30 am.  Thanks to Dad we have pictures of the first day of school.
(we bought another helmet so the grand kids can go for rides)

our busy corner in Malad

If the usual Hess Pumice trucks going by, the many animal trailors ,because of County Fair week, and the "busy" of finishing the fire station across the street isn't enough......now we have the "set up" for the Utah-Idaho fire  AND the paving of Highway 38 off to the west.

This is what it looks like around here these days.

There are trucks and vehicles from Colorado, California, Montana, Utah, Idaho and Arizona.

 I did not get a good picture of the mobile shower.  Behind the shower is where they eat.  There is an area for all the technology and satellite communication, a medical area, and much that I have no idea what purpose it serves.  

I did not get pictures of the many yellow dump trucks that go by all day long, sometimes 3 at a time, very noisy & loud---with asphalt for the road project to the west.  

A NICE QUIET WINTER DAY SOUNDS NICE RIGHT NOW.

If you look hard enough you can see Jenny Oaks Baker giving a 2 hour session of violin instruction.  We did not understand the whole occasion very well, but we will do better next time.  Aubrey would have gotten more out the experience if we had the music ahead of time and had taken a piece for Jenny to hear Aubrey play and give advice. (they called this portion a master class, but we had never experienced one before)

Jenny is very cute, very very awesome on the violin and very very very serious about everything involved with playing the violin and performing in public.  

more summer fun

 Aubrey has taught swim lessons most of the summer.  The final 2 week session she taught 3 classes in the morning to level 1. This is the stage where some of the little ones are afraid of the water and usually don't like getting their ears wet.

 We had another visit from the Kleinman's.  Fun for us!  I did not get many pictures.  I took the camera to Lava Hot Springs and got the camera wet.  It never recovered and we had to get a new camera.  That same week I  put my cell phone through a wash, rinse and the dryer.  The phone did not recover either.

 The fire station across the street was getting black top one morning.

 Lava Hot Springs. The weather looked threatening at times but we stayed as long as we wanted.

 Nathan likes that he can swim and eat whenever he desires.

 Aubrey was able to shoot some Bball with the water to support her healing knee.

 These last two are from earlier in the summer but I like them.

July 4th and Grandma Bluth's visit

  

I don't know why but I did not get pictures of the beginning of the parade.  I missed the grand marshal and police cars.  The little boy (Caleb) is a FAST friend Marci made, who's family was sitting next to us.

The volley ball team was asked to ride on the "Breast Cancer Awareness" float, which won 1st place.

 As you can see.  Caleb was everywhere and I had a hard time getting a good picture of the Ireland Bank float.  I was getting tired of him being in most every picture.

 This Subway mascot was so cute.

 After the parade it was on to the "Shoot out" outside the Iron Door Playhouse.  Grandma would have to go to Tombstone, AZ for one of these and luckily for her we have one here in Malad  on the 4th.

 Marci worked hard to get a 3 on 3 s volley ball team.  They got 2nd place.  A very good team of guys from California won, but we were glad we could give them some great competition.  Byron Bott and his sister Beverly were on Marci's team.

 Winners of Malad's got Talent.  I did not get pictures of the audition on July 3rd.

After watching the fireworks from the back of the truck, well grandma was inside the cab --We  ate the fruit pizza late that night.
