Add a little "Spice" into your life!


My little boy is turning into a man - or at least trying to!  This morning Layton over heard Cassidy and I having a discussion that involved the word "B.O."  He then of course wanted to know what that was and if it was pronounced "Bah" or "Bow".   We explained to him that as you get older your arm pits get sweaty and then they stink.  You have to wear deodorant under your arms to keep them from smelling.  Then he asked what deodorant was.  I showed him his dad's "Old Spice" deodorant.  Then a few minutes later, Layton came back in the room to ask me if he could try dad's deodorant.  He confessed to me that his arm pits get wet all the time at school!  So I gave him the deodorant but he was very nervous that it would tickle.  So before using it on his armpits he gave it a trial run on his belly button!  The end of the story is that after much giggling, he went to school armed with "Old Spice".  And what a better day to try it out than today since it was also the school talent show- and Layton had a piece of artwork he was going to present.

Oh I love a good B.O. story! Like the time we were in Ireland on a tour bus full of people and 'someone' forgot to turn in their hotel key and had to walk up to the front of the bus in front of everyone--totally blushing and sweating the whole way! That cute, young, shy, girl stunk so bad after she got back to her seat! Good times! :)

There's the other B.O. story on the cruise. You know the one where we found our true loves! :)
We were playing Bingo and trying to mark off all of the B and O columns. You won and excitedly shouted, "I've got B.O.!"

Hauʻoli Lā Hānau Scott!

Heather sends us at least one vacation deal to look at each month. In September 2020 she showed us a sale on airfare to Hawaii over Scott's birthday. We had such a fun time there in January 2020 that it didn't take us long to commit and we booked airfare to Maui. We soon realized we couldn't find any affordable lodging in Maui that also offered free cancellation. Generous cancellation policies are definitely a must in these crazy COVID times. Heather found a good deal on lodging in Kauai so we changed our airfare from Maui to Kauai. Yes! Everything was finalized! Well that was until it was declared that all visitors to Hawaii would be required to show a negative COVID test, from one of their approved testing sites, to get off the plane in Hawaii. That was discouraging so we then changed our plans and flights to spend the week in Cancun. Finally we knew where we would be spending Scott's birthday week! Or not. With just a little over a week before our vacation date, the ...

So here is a look at our trip to Paris.  It might be more than most of you care to read!  I just copied and pasted emails we sent home while on our trip.  This is more for my benefit than anyone else's since this blog is the closest I have come to keeping a journal.  Hope you enjoy the journey- we sure did! View from our Seine River Cruise Day One We have the tiniest little room way up at the very top of a very narrow skinny hotel. It reminds us of the love dungeon (our first basement apartment) but it is up at the top so we called it our "love tower"! The bed is a double and you can only stand up straight in the room if you are standing on Scott's side of the bed! The tub is half size (I think they made it for Napoleon).  But I slept great. The weather was amazing! After getting in it was too early to get our room so we left our bags at the hotel and walked around for about an hour while waiting to meet up with the Parkers again. We were in the Plaza of San Mic...

Memorable highlights and sayings from 2007

January Highlight: Staying at our friends cabin up by Mt. St. Helens. Just a quick drive up the mountain and we had plenty of snow for sledding and great views of St. Helens. January Quote: Scott and I were in the car with Cassidy. I was complaining about how tired I had been. It didn't see m to matter if I slept 4 hours or 8 hours, I always felt tired. Cassidy who had been relatively quiet up till this point pipes up and says, "maybe you are going through menopause." Scot t and I started laughing and then Cassi dy admitted she didn't even know what that meant, she had just heard it in "F ather the Bride II". (by they way, we believe it is due to sleep apnea, not menopause!) February Highlight: Hosting two BYU Young Ambassadors in our home for a couple days while they performed in the Portland area. February Quote: A fter rushing to find Will's shoes before leaving to r un errands he tells me, "Befo re we go to heaven, we need to remember to put o...
