See Jane Blog – Page 8 – there is life. there is art. and in-between is the journey. welcome to see jane blog.

As soon as the little retreat was finished in Cedar City we headed a bit farther South to spend the weekend in St. George. We chose to stay at the Sand Hollow Resort – they have villas for rent that fit our family with extra space. It was sunny, fun, and a good dose of family time! Without sounding to whiney – it’s less and less common these days that we get time together with all of us. We “divide and conquer” more and more often. Dusty has taken kids on the past two weekends to softball and baseball tournaments in St George while I stayed home for dance competitions, homework and other commitments. Dusty’s travel/work schedule.

I did it! I took L I T T L E R E T R E A T S on the road, and it was a success! And by “I” I mean an entire team of WE! Especially this last weekend. In fact, I’ve been overcome with gratitude for my family, and friends who support and help me in big ways to make these retreats possible.

This time around we rented a trailer, loaded up our tables, kitchen supplies, and more. Kitchen Eighty-eight went on the road with us, Amanda who owns Recycled Consign & Design was the most gracious host — everyone was so much help! Even my daughter’s boyfriend was hauling stuff around all weekend for me –

A portrait of my children (and puppy), once a week, every week, in 2015.
All pictures of the kiddos taken at Red Cliffs in Leeds, Utah – on the Red Reef hike.

Kiana: She started running one mile/day with me this past week. We’ve made it six days in a row! Instead of going long distances we are trying to see how fast we can both get our one mile down to. We track our runs on the Nike+ running app – both of us are down one minute from our first day!

Myla: Played in her first VARSITY softball game this past week!!!

Kiana: Kitchen dance party!!!

Myla: We were sitting at family dinner this past week when I noticed a sharpie marker “#15” on the inside of Myla’s wrist. Intrigued, I asked her, “Myla, what’s that #15 for?” With a little grin she told me… “Oh. That’s (boyfriend who plays baseball)’s number… when we have games, I write his number on my hand/wrist/arm, and when he has games – he does the same with my number – “#24” I sighed. Cutest thing I’ve ever heard!

Friends!!! For those of you who might be new to SeeJaneBlog – our family resided in Utah for fifteen years from 1996-2011, then we moved to Boston, Massachusetts for two years in 2011-2013. Then returned to Utah in July of 1013… Nineteen months ago. After nonstop projects during this time, and more projects currently underway I am ready to start a tour around our home! I plan on sharing our home in sections – starting with the entry and living room.

First of all, this home is fairly unique and came to be ours in a unique way too. Our last Utah home is only ten houses away down the road from where we now live.

Kiana went to her high school prom this past weekend with one of her best friends, Parker. Here in Utah it’s a tradition to go on a “day date” and then in the evening you go to dinner, the dance, and often times an after the dance activity. Her group went ziplining in Provo canyon early in the morning and to lunch – they had a blast! Then in the evening they took pictures, had dinner at our local country club, went to the dance which was held at the Provo convention center and watched “Big Hero 6” with snacks at one of the guys houses afterwards. Kiana had a GREAT time.
