Family Vacation 2009 Day 2

Good morning one and all. Today is our 2nd day of vacation. Brandon and I went to church this morning at the Snowbird Center. It was really good. It started at 9:00 am and was over at 10:00 am. After that we came back to the room and ate breakfast and watched some TV. We left Snowbird about 12:00 we went to Radio Shack because we needed to get some batteries for Mom's blood meter and Brandon needed to get some cable for his Radio.

We then went to Target and Mom shopped for some food (chips, paper goods, etc) while Dad and Brandon waited in the food court and ate some pizza and sodas. After we finished there, we decided we wanted to go to Walmart. At Walmart Mom found some pants and other things, and I purchased a new Camera a Cannon Rebel XT.

Here are a few pictures from it:


This is a picture looking out the West side of our Room.

After we left Walmart we met up with Aunt Marilyn and Uncle Clark at the Market Street Grill and had dinner with them. We met them at 4:30 and didn't leave until 6:45. Dad and I had Prime Rib, Mom, Marilyn and Clark had Halibut and Brandon had the Fisherman's platter. It was really good and we were really full by the time we left.

Here is a picture on Marilyn and Clark at the table in the restaurant.



Here is a picture of all of us:



When we got back up to our room it was about 7:45. We then watched the rest of Big Brother (what a stupid show this year) then we played Dominoes and this time Mom was the big winner.

We are really having fun.

More tomorrow.

Vacation

Howdy one and all. We are on vacation here in Palm Desert with Aunt Joni, Aunt Marilyn, and Uncle Clark. We have been gone since Jan 25th. We went to Las Vegas last week for a Painting Convention that I attended. I took 3 classes. It was a lot of fun. It was very cold in Vegas. The high most day's was 52 degrees. It was rainy and windy.

We are in Palm Desert now. It's been fun. Sunday Kim's family came over and watched the Super bowl game with us. Yesterday we went to the Imax theater and watched a movie on Lewis & Clark. It was really cool. anyway, today we are doing a puzzle and watching TV. We will probably stay until Thursday or Friday.

Palm Desert vacation

Hi Family,
Thanks to Kim personally helping me I'm on the family blog. We are here at Palm
Desert for 2 weeks enjoying the green and beauty of the CA desert which is quite a change from 2 feet of snow at home in Logan. (We understand we got another foot this morning.)
Dorothy, Carlos, Jodi, and Joni are here with us for a week and we are enjoying being together.
Kim and her family joined us today to watch the Super Bowl. It is so nice to be together...wish all of you could join us. Goodbye, for now. Kim needs to go and I need to stop. Love to all.

Marilyn says Hi

Hi Again,
I'm trying to get on the family tree blog, with Kim's added help. I hope this one is a goer.
More later, if it works.

Welcome

Welcome to the new Manning Family Tree blog spot. I made this as a place where we can all come to find out what is going on in each of our lives. As we get older it gets harder & harder to keep in touch with one another. I really miss when we were kids & we would get together and have fun. I miss that connection with each of you.

I want this to be a place where you can post what is going on in your life, or the lives of your children and/or grandchildren. You can even post pictures. Or you can just write down favorite memories of Grandma and Grandpa Manning, or anyone else connected to this family. It doesn't matter how mundane you think your life is or how exciting for that matter, someone in our family wants to know about it.

I've wanted to do this for about a year now, but I am such a procrastinator. So I figured Christmas was the perfect time of year to kick this off. I loved how Melissa and Aunt Marilyn did the recipe book. It brought back lots of great memories. That is what I want this blog to be about, a place to remember great memories & create new memories and reconnect with one another.

I hope that all of you are exited as me to contribute to this blog. It will get boring real quick if I am the only one to contribute. If you have any questions, email me at kasmlc@hotmail.com.

Love to you all & I can't wait to find out what is going on in all your lives.

Kim
