Brooke and Jace Packard: Father's Day Weekend and More Concrete

Well I feel like the weeks keep getting shorter and busier. This past weekend was no exception. Monday afternoon this past week we had 10 yards of concrete delivered and poured with the help of Jake, Russ and Denis. Then Friday morning we had the last 12 yards brought in. Between Jace, Jake and I we were able to get it all finished that day. I ended up taking the day off since it was late afternoon by the time we finished and we had to run down to Provo to pickup the Ford (again). Recall this post where Jace had swapped motors once already and it was still having problems. Well they looked at it since it was under warranty and told us the motor was having problems but we would have to pull it (again) and swap it (again). By we, I mean poor Jace…So we picked up the motor Friday and then went to see The 5 Year Engagement when we got back. It was pretty funny but a little slow in some parts. Then Saturday morning we got up and while Jace worked on pulling the motor I cleaned, did some laundry and yard work. Saturday was my work Lagoon day so we headed over there that afternoon and went to the work picnic party then hung out at the pool. It was a nice relaxing day, other than I got popped on by a bird. Laying by the pool minding my own business and a bird drop’s his nasty business right on my stomach. Jace was mad I got up too fast to run into the pool and wash off before he could get a picture but it was nasty.

After the Lagoon day we just finished working on the truck and ran some errands and relaxed a little the rest of the night. Sunday we had church and it was obviously father’s day. We had dinner over at my parents then swung by Jace’s dad’s house to see him for awhile. Were grateful to have great parents and I’m not sure what I would do without family so close. It’s really nice being within 15 minutes of everyone. Well now were onto another busy week (Jace is shooting to have the motor swapped and back up and running again by this Thursday-so much work!) all while we’re trying to get ready to leave for Lake Powell a week from Tuesday.
