JULY 6, 2009

We have had a wonderful fourth of July weekend. Kurt and I went on a long bike ride, we ate great food and just hung out reading good books and doing some chores around the house. I love our country and I want it to stay strong and good.

A SUNDAY IN FEBRUARY

Tiffany is very sick with a strep infection. Paul took the kids to the Monster Truck Rally at the Pepsi Center. Kurt is at Church and I am the designated "at home nurse". It is great as I have caught up on my Book of Mormon reading and get to listen to some music Tiff gave me. It is very relaxing. Usually when I listen to music, my mind goes to work analysing chord structures and progressions. Sort of takes the fun out of it. But this is not the case today. It has been a great week at work. I love the sisters I work with. Plus we are sharing a ton of ideas for dinner parties etc. Everyone is on the band wagon. I ordered this cookbook, that is really more than an ordinary cookbook, from "The Gathering of Friends" website. Took it to work and everyone was just goin' nuts over it. Lisa took it home to use some of the recipes for her dinner party this coming Friday night. Thinking about cooking and sharing with friends has become a very focused idea for us. We are looking forward to our next gathering on Feb 28th. We will post pictures and recipes.

BACK TO WORK

It was back to work for me this past week. Where did all of those vacation days go? It was nice to be back in the Center. For those who aren't aware, I work for Distribution Services for the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints. The sisters that work with me are : Denice Floyd, Sharon Amberry, Lisa Clark, Nan Call, and Joyce Chesney is our "on call" gal. Today I got to go to the Woodhouse Spa in Lone Tree. It is about 10 minutes from our home. My oh my.....totally relaxed and feel like a whole new girl. The woman that worked on me is named Anna. I had some kind of 90 min. facial. It feels so good....I wish it could erase the years but none the less, it feels great. She taught me things and old dogs and bears really do need to learn new tricks. When Kurt wakes up from his nap, we are going to dinner at Rio Grande. We have never been but I spied it today while walking towards the spa. We are starting to put some ideas out for our next dinner party on Feb 28th. I think it will be an Italian one. Need to work on the ideas and check out Maggies Dinner Dates for some more ideas.

Time To Blog

The Home Teachers just left and Kurt went with them to Stake Priesthood Meeting. We love Brs. Stanworth and Cowden. Great men and fun to be around. I have been trying to upload a darling picture of Tiffany and Anna. And will need to have Tiff help as there seems to be a glitch. We have decided February 28th is the next Kammeyer Party. We are following the ideas from Maggie's Dinner Dates...you need to see her blog. This party will be an indoor BBQ Anna has agreed to babysit so things will all go smoothly. Life is good....now if I can just upload this photo of Tiffany and Anna

MY NEW FRIEND

The Soup Social would not have happened had it not been for Maggie Goeble of Las Vegas. I found her blog spot "Maggie's Dinner Dates" and it just looked like so much fun to do. Maggie had everything mapped out for me or you...and who couldn't follow that kind of plan....We had a great time at the Soup Social. So check out Maggie's Blog and be ready to be totally impressed and inspired!!!!
