It was pretty much a wind down weekend. Not a whole lot going on. We need some serious relaxation and vacation time, but I don't know when that's going to happen. I know I keep saying 'relax, relax, relax' maybe if I think about it hard enough it will slow down. The funeral kinda started it all up again. At least there's never a dull moment!

The weather is changing. I THINK we are almost done with the 100* temp's. It is now tolerable. We will be spending a lot more time outside, especially at night. Maggie loves to go out and play. I can tell on the days when we don't get out with her she misbehaves or gets bored and follows us like a shadow. She still barks in the morning if we leave her out too long. We're trying to break that habit so it's not pesky for the neighbors. If I leave the the laundry room door adjar just enough so she can push it open she doesn't bark. I don't want to make a habit of that either.

Last week it was hard to spend time with her because we were gone and then Carl went to Prescott so this weekend he was able to spend a little more time with her. She's also started shedding her summer coat. But she's made amazing changes since we've had her. She's been fun but very different for us! She's been really good too for the most part.

On a side note- I had learned when we were in SLC, that my littlest (she's not so little next me) my sister Kait was to be engaged.He officially proposed to her this evening! I met her fiancee' to be while we were there. They were also in SLC, picking up her car. They stayed and extra day so they could spend time with Carl and I. He is a very NICE guy and very easy going. He seems to fit in well with the family and everyone has taken a great liking to him. I think he's a good match for Kait. I wish them well and I am really excited to be hearing of wedding plans! CONGRATULATIONS Kait and Zelwig.
