It’s 5:42a.m. and I am hanging out on the couch with Mr. Ty and Mojo (Mojo is not on the couch). The sun is coming up and shining through the clouds. The sky looks like it’s filled with cotton candy. I have the windows and the sliding glass door open so I can hear the river below and breathe in the crisp cool air. I guess if I have to be up this early I may as well take advantage of the mountain air and the spectacular scenery!
Jagger attended his first bar mitzvah yesterday. I dropped him at Max’s house at 4:40, so he could hitch a ride with Sue, Michael, Paige, and Max to the celebration. I’ve never been to a bar mitzvah and since I don’t know too much about them; I was excited to hear from Jagger when Ty and I picked him up at 11:00p.m.
Jagger said he’d like to have a bar mitzvah, as everyone brought loads of money to give to Ethan. Ethan had to study for the last 3 years in order to quote from the Torah(Jewish Bible) in hebrew. The ceremony lasted about 2 hours(Jagger said it was so interesting that the time went by quickly)and the celebration went on until 10:30ish. Hors d’oeuvres were passed around by a wait staff, beverages offered and served and then a sit down dinner followed by dancing. All the kids danced together (fantastic) and had a great time. We are truly blessed to be embraced by such lovely people!
Doug called a couple of times to update us on his hunting excursion. The men saw elk but no one had a shot(Whew). They have a cook much like Aunt Myrna…lucky boys! Doug hiked about 14 miles yesterday and his hunting partners rode around in a Polaris, as not one of them is under 300lbs! Super nice guys that love good food.
Jagger is still sleeping and I am hopeful that he will sleep in until 10 or so. Ty is hungry, so time to go.
God Bless:-)
