Birthdays!!!

2011-03-27T15:54:00.000-07:00

It was Kaylee and Paul's birthday party day and after the party we went to the Olive Garden where Sam was working and had a nice dinner. Here is the photographic evidence of the event. It was a fun day for everyone.

Paul catches Carl proposing to Morena. (I informed him that she was taken)

The Rusts minus Denise who was with their mom.

Paul and Orion Rust

It was a sad week for us as we learned of the passing of Brother (Al) Rust. For my brother Jule and I Brother Rust was like a second father. We spent a lot of time with the Rusts growing up in New Jersey and were always made to feel part of the family. We celebrate the life of this great man. The week also gave us a chance to get caught up with dear friends that we haven't seen in a long time.

FHE and Papusas with Friends

2011-01-17T21:20:00.000-08:00

Blogging with the Wrights

2011-01-15T18:11:00.000-08:00

Brunching, blogging and sharing missionary stories with the Wrights. Their son Mckay and Barry are best friends and are both serving LDS missions. Paul showed Jojean the finer points of blogging.

Kreyling/Yunker Christmas Dinner

The Kreyling Yunker gang at the Mandarin Buffet for Christmas Dinner. There were 38 family members present.

St. George Flood of 2010

2010-12-21T14:20:00.000-08:00

They say the amount of water flow will be greater than the Flood of 2005 that was a 500 year flood. But the damage will be minimal in comparison because of fortifications of the riverbank after the last flood. In 2005 the flood made the national news and I believe 27 homes were destroyed.

And More Grass

2010-10-28T18:48:00.001-07:00

One day short of four weeks since seeding...

More Grass

2010-10-16T12:21:00.000-07:00

This is the backyard 2 weeks after putting grass seed down!! By spring there should be a nice lawn for the grandkids to play on.

Let there be Grass

2010-10-11T21:20:00.000-07:00

Yes, so several months ago Janice and Jon helped me dig the ditches and put the sprinklers in. Then they helped spread the manure. Last week they were back as we put down seed and covered it with manure. After 8 days we have a grass sighting!

30th Wedding Anniversary

2010-10-11T21:11:00.000-07:00

Yes it is our 30th wedding anniversary. We had shrimp and cocktail sauce and Morena's famous Chinese rice! On Saturday we are going to see the Blue Man Group in Las Vegas.

"Rotten Peaches, Rotting in the Sun"

2010-09-06T21:20:00.000-07:00

Words from an Elton John song fit well with our trip to the stake farm in Hurricane where Morena and I picked about a kajillion peaches. There were many peaches rotting in the sun. Then Morena and Janice spent about 12 hours bottling them barely making a dent in the total. After Janice took a bunch home and Morena gave some to Mom and Linda we only have like half a kajillion left.

Trip to See the Grandkids

2010-08-08T11:01:00.001-07:00

Morena and I went up to Enoch to visit Jon, Janice and the grandchildren on Friday and Saturday before school starts back up next week. Jon fixed my laptop. Thanks Jon! Janice made us some great meals. Thanks Jan. Kaylee sang us the ABC's. Thanks Kaylee and Regan pooped early morning when all were sleeping and Papa(Grandpa or me) got to change it. Thanks Regan. It was a great time. Kaylee is turning into quite the conversationalist.

Picking Samantha up in Las Vegas

2010-07-30T09:46:00.000-07:00

I went to pick Sam up at the airport as she returned from her visit with Jack'ee. We left the airport at about 11:45PM MST and didn't get home until after 2:00AM. Sam helped keep me awake by talking to me all the way home about her trip, Jack'ee... It was a very good talk. It was a fun trip home. When I got home I was so wired I couldn't get to sleep until about 4:00AM.

Taking Sam to the Airport in Las Vegas

2010-07-26T23:12:00.000-07:00

We took Samantha to Las Vegas for her flight to Phoenix where she will be spending several days with Jack'ee. We went to the Bellagio to see the Garden and then to the Venician to eat Italian. The we dropped Sam at the airport and Morena and I checked into our room at the Excaliber. When we checked in they offered us a free upgrade to a suite. The room was nearly as big as our first home! It was very nice as you can see from the pictures. You can also see Morena got carried away with the soap in the Jacuzzi tub. The next day we ate Vietnamese food at Treasure Island and then went to the Factory Outlet stores off of Charleston Blvd. It was a lot of fun.

Sunset on the Square

2010-07-23T23:51:00.000-07:00

The city of St. George puts on a movie in the town square the second and fourth Friday's of the month. We went to see The Flyboys. It was filmed locally in St. George and surrounding areas. It was a good movie. Janice, Jon, Kaylee and Regan came down and we had an enjoyable evening.

another weekend visit

2010-07-20T09:48:00.000-07:00

Kaylee took Yaiyai for a spin around the block.

She wore Papa's hat. And her soccer shirt.

And Regan turned 8 months old. He likes to "feed" himself. And still loves his fingers.

a weekend visit

2010-07-01T20:54:00.000-07:00

Jon and Papa work on the back yard while Kaylee plays in the kiddie pool. This picture was taken before the manure was spread. There will soon be grass for the grandchildren to play on.

Papa and Regan ready for church. A very handsome pair.

Day 8 Las Vegas to St. George

2010-06-15T19:50:00.000-07:00

I arranged with the hotel a later checkout so Morena could sleep more. We left at a little after noon and stopped at a Smiths to get food. Then we stopped at the Valley of Fire to get gas and had trouble getting the car to start. When it finally started we headed home but after about 10 minutes a warning light came on letting us know that our fluid was low. We stopped in Mesquite to buy anti-freeze and called Eric. He said check the reservoir and if its empty he wouldn't drive the car. It was empty so I filled it and watched it leak out very fast. So I called the insurance and they had a tow truck come and take us to St. George and drop the car off to Eric so he can fix it. After that Eric lent us his car and we drove home. And thus our great summer adventure ended.

Morena Bidding Farewell to the Caribbean

The Caribbean

Clear Water

Bye Bye Caribbean

Footprints

Morena

We got up early and took a walk on the beach and Morena went in to say goodbye to the Caribbean. Such calm clear water. Our ride came at 10:15AM and we arrived at the airport at 10:50AM. We got our tickets and went through all the security checks. We forgot the Vanilla that we bought so I had to go back out and check that luggage and come back through security. It took a while because there was now a long line where the luggage gets checked in. Then we had one last Dominican meal got on the plane and left. Flying over the Caribbean was nice. All the different shades of blue that the water took on. All the small and bigger islands. Then we arrived in Miami about 2 hours later. We had 4 hours until our flight to Las Vegas but it took about 1.5 hours to clear customs then get our checked luggage then clear customs again. Our flight to Vegas took off on time and was about 5 hours. We had a little turbulence some of which was bad enough to cause more than a few people to say Whoa! But not too bad and it didn't last very long. We arrived in Las Vegas caught a shuttle to long term parking to get our car. Next we went to In and Out Burger and got some food that we brought to Excaliber Hotel where we had a room for the night. Morena is starting to get sick. We didn't get to sleep until about 1:30AM.

Morena Buys this Boy an Egg

Beauty Salon

Food at Outside Market

Today we went on a Safari (Dominican Lifestyle). We went to see how the locals live. We first stopped and had some sugarcane in Hato Viejo 2. While doing this we were offered the "National Vitamin" which is Cola and Rum (Ron). We of course just had the Cola for the toast. Our guide, who I think is Jamaican, was happy to take our share of Ron. Then we stopped at a place to use the restroom and buy things (of course). We had children come in and beg for money but the owner chased them out telling them they would have to do that outside. We bought some lollipops called BonBon. We were told we could throw them to the local children who would run out and wave to us as we rode by. Next we stopped at an outdoor market in Bayaguana. We had a little boy follow us. We gave him some candy but he continued with us as we walked through the market. As we were getting ready to get back in the vehicle Morena heard the boy trying to buy a hard boiled egg for 5 pesos but the lady wanted 6 pesos and wouldn't lower the price even when the boy said how hungry. Morena offered to pay but before she could check to see if she had the money the kid was eating the egg. Morena had American change but the lady wanted nothing to do with it it. She finally found some pesos and paid for the egg and gave the change to the little boy. After this we saw two beautiful baseball fields in the middle of nowhere. They belong to the Florida Marlins and the New York Mets. Then we headed up the mountain. Seeing the housing you see how spoiled we are in America. Little children would run out and wave and we would throw them candy. We stopped and got a tour of a typical home. We also tasted Coco before its dried and ground and ground coffee in a hollowed out log. The others drank the coffee but we did not. The place where we did this is called Conatillo. Next we went to this beautiful Waterfall and went under it and showered. There were more people trying to sell us stuff. On the way out I ended up with this big gray spider on my arm. I have no idea if it was poisonous or not. After leaving the waterfall we at lunch. It was good. We headed home. We were covered in dust. Morena wore white that was now brown but she washed it at the waterfall and hung it up to dry while we ate. On the way back to the hotel it started to rain very hard. Thunder and lightning, it was cool. It cooled things off and knocked down the dust. We made it to the hotel in about 2.5 hours. We ate at El Fogon and went to the big show after not realizing that one night a week the audience was the big show. We ended up on stage learning and dancing the Salsa. After we tried emailing Barry but Morenas laptop was not working so we paid to use a computer there. $5 for an hour. It didnt work too well but I nursed it through and was able to get a short email off to Barry. Then we did most of our packing and got to bed late.

Morena heading to boat.

Our ride to Ramona and the boat

We started of with breakfast, fresh fruits, potatoes, juice, sausage, bacon, eggs... Our ride came to get us at 8AM. It was a 45 minute ride to where the boat was located. From there it took about an hour to reach Catalina Island. We first stopped at a place on one side of the Island for snorkling. The water was crystal clear and about 10 feet deep. There is a coral reef there with all kinds of fish. It was beautiful. The crew of the boat were fishing while we were snorkling and caught quite a few fish. After snorkling for about 30 minutes we went to the other side of the Island to lounge on the beach. It was a beautiful beach with crystal clear waters. It was very hot and there were these huge horseflies that wanted us for lunch. We put on insect repellent but they apparently thrive on DEET. Then we had this guy come and try to sell us something by giving us a gift and only asking us to stop by his store before we left. We did but he wouldn't come down on price so another local salesman gets taken to task by Morena. We went to the Fogon for dinner again. They serve local Dominican cuisine. We had a musician come to our table and sing Gema for Morena. Then we of course watched the big show they do every night.

Dominican Republic Day 4

2010-06-11T23:30:00.000-07:00

We tried to get an excursion set up for today but couldn't so we set one up for tomorrow(Saturday) to Catalina Island with a representative of the agency here. His name is Pedro and after we set up the trip we had a long conversation with Pedro and a rep from another company whose name is Moises. They asked where I learned Spanish and Morena told them that I learned while serving an LDS mission. They said they repected the Mormons and were impressed at how quickly they can learn a foriegn language. We talked about many things and nearly had all the worlds problems solve but it was almost lunch time so we had to eat. We went to the beach after lunch and just chilled for about 4 hours. Its a weekend so there are more people but still not to bad. We had several people trying to sell us stuff. How many times do you have to tell someone that you don't smoke so you don't need any cigars? We went to dinner at the Italian restaurant again and it was good. Then we went to the show they have each night. Since it was Friday the show was done on the beach. They set up a stage, a bar and a dance floor. They had a live band. The weather was perfect. At some point they started a bonfire on the beach. It was a good relaxing day. Tomorrow we go to Catalina Island to lounge and snorkle.

The Whole Carribean at My Feet.

Hammock

The day started off early with fresh fruit for breakfast then a 1.5 hour ride to get to the cataraman we took to Saona Island. On the way we stopped at what they called a natural pool in the Carribean. It was several hundred yards from shore and the water was 3 to 4 feet deep and the bottom was white sand. We saw several large starfish and held them. That was cool. Then to Saona Island. It was beautiful as you can see in the photos. Then the long ride home with some loud but funny guy from Puerto Rico. After cleaning up we went to the Tex Mex Restaurant where I had some chicken mole and Morena had Mahi Mahi. After dinner we saw a show and are now trying to arrange some snorkling tomorrow. A fun day. They even got me to dance on the catamaran. That must have been quite a site for all watching. But I had fun.

Dominican Republic Day 2

We are ready for the World Cup!

This guy tried to get Morena to buy something. The poor fellow didn't know who he was messing with.

Morena under her palm tree.

The beach

Another nice day. It started with us going to bed at 2:30AM and then Morena getting hungry at 5:30 and making just enough noise to wake me up. We went down to breakfast at 6:30 then lounged on the beach for a few hours. At 9:30 we met with a rep from the company taking us to Saona Island tomorrow. Then Morena was hungry again so we ate and then went to our room at about 12:30 for a nap. We were up and out at 2:30 and had a bite to eat at Los Mangos. Then a skyp conversation with Janice and Kaylee where we gave them a tour of the resort, at least until we got to the end of the internet signal. Morena arranged for a taxi ride to take us to the pharmacy to buy dramamine for our ocean adventure tomorrow. 400 pesos for the taxi ride! We just returned from Riggaleto an Italian restaurant. It was an awsome place to eat. Now we are waiting for a live show to start in about 45 minutes. I think they may try to teach me to dance the Merengue. The will probably have as much luck with that as that poor salesman on the beach had trying to sell Morena something. The guy was good but she made him look like a rank amature.

The Dominican Rupublic Day 1

2010-06-08T19:01:00.000-07:00

Talk about a long day. We leave St. George yesterday at 9:00PM to catcha 12:40AM flight. We get to Las Vegas 2.5 hours before our flight but miss the turn for the Economy parking and have to circle around. While we are doing this, we decided to take a bathroom break at a McDonalds. By the time we get back to the car have under 2 hours until our flight-the car won't start! Click, click, click is all we hear. After what seemed like an eternity the car finally started and we head to the economy parking lot. This time we found the right turn, sigh. There was a shuttle vehicle there and he pointed to a spot for us to park, grabbed our luggage and we were off. By the time we checked in and got to the gate there was under an hour until our departure time. The first leg of the flight got us to Dallas/Fort Worth Texas. We got there at 5AM. Our connecting flight had a departure time of 5:45AM and the gate was a ways away. We got there just in time to board! Next is Miami. We get there late and had to walk about a mile to our gate, 15 minutes at a fast walking pace. We immediately try to board, but Morena was stopped because she looked suspicious... Just kidding. They did some random carry on thing and made her check her carry on. They also told her she couldn't get anything out of the bag. Well when we got on the plane Morena realized that all her meds were in that bag, so she talked to the pilot and got them to allow her to get her meds. They also brought her bag on the plane so we didn't need to check it in after all. The flight left late. We flew over the Carribbean seeing a lot of islands along the way. We landed in the Dominican Republic about 20 minutes late. We cleared customs and looked for the representative from the tour company. Well, we had some guy try to lead us away but the lady from the tour group saw us and started yelling, Hey, this way! So the guy circled around and brought us to her. She was kind of a confusing person but we evetually got our ride to the resort. By now we were starving because we had no time in between flights to stop and get a drink of water let alone food. At the resort we were waiting to check in but this kids in front of us were taking forever! Then after about 10 minutes a lady came and had me come over to a desk to check us in. We were thankful becuase that other group went on and on. She asked how things were and I said good except we were hungry because everything was so rushed we didn't have time to eat. She stopped, put these pink bands on our wrists and said "go eat and we will finish this after." So we did. The food was very good especially the fruit and especially the pineapple. WOW! Morena took a bite and exhaled and said wow! this is better than... You fill in rest. : ) Needless to say the fresh fruit was great! After the meal we finished checking in, went to our room and crashed for 4 hours. The room was nice and cold-a heavenly break from the hot moisture. We woke up showered and went out for dinner. You can see what we had in the photos. It was all excellent. Some guys came in and seranaded us while we were eating. It was a romantic event to start off our paradise vacation. Then we found out that internet is free in the lobby- if you have your own laptop, which we do. Halleluja! How sweet is that. So here we are filling you in. We will do this most nights, maybe.

My friend and coworker John Baggaley and I calculating the probability that we will both show up to work wearing a tie on the same day again. We know the probability is approaching zero but more calculations are needed. Everyone we work with thought it was zero but this photo is evidence that it is something slightly more than zero.

Graduation In Four Days

2010-05-24T08:02:00.000-07:00

Graduation is in four days as the honey-do list grows without bound. Summer break for teachers? Ha!!!

Moving the Playhouse During Lunch

2010-05-19T15:47:00.000-07:00

I (Paul) helped Jamie move and set in place a playhouse that he had made for his girls. The crane lifted it over the wall you see and we nudged it into place. Once it was set in place the driver took the pressure off without warning causing a 2x6 that was protecting the roof to come loose and bonk me on the head. In the top photo you can see the guilty piece of lumber being put in place by the gentleman in the white shirt. Jamie is also putting a 2x6 in place. I let Morena know what happened and she asked, "did it knocked any sense into you". By that time the pain and tearing had subsided so I actually found it quite funny. The playhouse weighs nearly a ton!

Family Night Activity

2010-05-17T21:43:00.000-07:00

Samantha came over for family night and we went to play miniature golf at Fiesta Fun for the activity. Morena won by a single stroke. Then we went home to watch dancing with the stars.

Kaylee's Hernia Operation

2010-05-16T12:03:00.000-07:00

So Morena went up to visit Kaylee on Thursday and to help out with whatever was needed to ease the effects of the surgery. Then Paul went up Saturday for the weekend. We had Papa Murphey's Pizza on Saturday. Kaylee was amazing. You would never have known she had surgery. She was all over acting as if nothing had happened. Morena helped with cooking and cleaning and Paul took family pictures of them and painted the trim on the front door.

The Hardest Day

2010-04-15T21:07:00.000-07:00

Well here it is the first day after we brought Barry to the MTC and it was the toughest for me. Barry had been by my side either as a coach, manager(both boy's and girls soccer) or a player since 7th grade. Today I faced my first practice without him in 6 years and it was tough. I wore big sunglasses so no one would see me tearing up.

Shopping for Missionary Clothing

2010-02-28T13:01:00.000-08:00

So, we start the day at the health fair at the hospital. We had our blood sugar tested, blood pressure taken, and eyes checked. Also we had the above picture taken. Afterwords we went to lunch at Red Lobster with Samantha and Shan. Then Sam, Barry Morena and I went to find missionary clothes. We bought shirts, ties, suits, socks shoes and belts at Christenson's then went to, JC Penney, Sears, Dillards, and Kohls. Sam left after JC Penney and went to our house and made dinner while we finished up. A total of 5hrs shopping which exceeded my limit by 4hrs 45min. It was good though. :)

Barry Opens Mission Call

2010-02-19T06:24:00.000-08:00

Barry surrounded by family and friends opens his mission call. He finally opened it after a nine hour wait so that his sister Sam could be their. Behind Barry is a map of the world where people put there guess as to where he would go. No one guessed correctly. He will be serving in the Knoxville Tennessee mission. This mission has parts of Tennessee, Kentucky, Virginia,Georgia and Alabama in it. He enters the MTC April 14 and should be in Tennessee in early may. We are proud of you Barry.

Mission Call Tennessee Knoxville Mission

2010-02-18T17:42:00.000-08:00

Update: Barry Was called to serve in the Tennessee Knoxvile Mission and reports on April 14th.

Barry got his mission call and we are only waiting for Morena and Sam and other family and friends to open it. We are planning to open it at 8:30. He had to run 5 miles and ride his bike to the school to play soccer to keep his mind off of it.
