We've always enjoyed hitting up Kuna Days. We've missed a year here or there due to a vacation once and another time was after Clara had been born, but for years we've been joining in the evening fun to watch the fireworks. This year I was working/volunteering with the local Republican party booth. I'm the district secretary and a precinct member alternative. I love working with Valerie, she's the Chairwoman over our district, and Brian, the vice chairman, as well as all the volunteers that came to the booth over the weekend. We spent a lot of hours out in the heat for a couple of days. We got to talk with people about getting more involved with the school board meetings and critical race theory, as well as discussing the candidates running for governor. I started off the morning with roller skating around with the American flag. Great way to start the day. Then I did the live videos for our raffles through the day for the two days I worked the booth. Proud patriot skater Goin' live to do the raffles Our first trip to NV was a coupe of days. We left on Friday, July 30th and drove back home on Monday Aug. 2.
We were supposed to be there for a quick visit and to grab a Uhaul to get some things that grandma and mom wanted me to have. The kids all had a great time playing. It was very sweet to see all the cousins together. My girls with my sister's kid and my brother's kid. The only kid missing was William He couldn't make it on this trip. It was good for mom and grandma to see all these kids together. There was a lot of playing in in the front and back yard, as well as the sun room. When I started taking photos of everyone on the porch out front I got an idea for a book. Grandma wants to sell her home. It's been in the family for 60 years. There's so many memories here. I thought it'd be cool to make a photo album book with a collection of front porch photos over the 60 years. It'd make an awesome gift for all of the family, and we could even gift one to whoever the new owner will be. Mom and i spent a lot of time sitting in the garage going through old boxes of her stuff and grandma's stuff. Grandma came over to visit, too and sat out there with us. It was very smoky out. There's a ton of fires going on in multiple states, but Tahoe had been on fire while we were there. On Sunday, we had a BBQ picnic near the river. |
