FAMILY FOTOS


After months of planning and preparation we finally did the family photo! Karamea had to make a special trip to St. George and everyone had to find matching turquoise. Maybe we matched a little too well.

About a year ago I drove past the most awesome tow truck ever! It belongs to Dixie Diesel. I asked if they would mind if we used it as a prop for our family pictures and Harry said he'd be happy to hang out with us. We love Harry! The truck is a 1953 Mac Model and still runs today. Harry used to tow the big diesels all up and down the I15 corridor. He thinks maybe more than 1,000 times.

We took more than 200 snapshots. It's late or I would post more photos for your viewing pleasure. I'll do that soon so stay tuned for more fun.

On another note...Spring Break ends tomorrow! I made a quick trip to Salt Lake this weekend to pick up kids who spent the week up north with cousins. We hung out with Karamea and bought new soccer cleats and of course my ritualistic trip to the hair salon. No one beats Rich at the Rockwater Salon in Heber. Maybe a little far to go for my hair but hey...its my hair...

We drove home in treacherous winds and arrived safely. Work tomorrow and school on Tuesday...and I make another one day trip to Salt Lake. Whatever!

LIFE IN A FAST LANE

What a crazy week this has been! Last Sunday the weather was so terrible. Just as the sun was setting it started to rain. The rain turned to sleet and soon to heavy snow. The weight of the snow on a weak roof can be fatal to the inside of a building.

Needless to say, I arrived at work Monday morning to an enormous wet mess. Fellow employees were frantically moving furniture and files to our new building.

KCSG was in the process of making a move but it wasn't supposed to happen for another month. With the roof caving in we had no choice but to move to our new building ahead of schedule. We spent 2 days moving boxes, files and furniture then another 3 days washing and painting walls. The timing of this move was extremely inconvenient.

I'm sure I left a lot of things out and I know my kids wondered if they still had a mother. But we made it. A quick check at the new building today...the walls are freshly painted and the carpets are in the drying stage. KCSG business offices will be functioning at 75% on Monday...sales needs a new set-up and managers will need to settle in. Next step is to create the new studio and news room.

Can't Wait!

SNOW!

Something is seriously wrong! It's freakin' snowing outside. My boys think it's awesome. I am completey appalled. I need heat! Ok...so it's good for the drought...but can it just stay in the mountains. Rain is okay but SNOW!
