June 1984

6/1/1984: We went to Yosemite today and had a great time. We saw all the tourist spots such as Yosemite Falls, El Capitan and the Mariposa grove of giant sequoias. Unfortunately the son got to Peter and Mommy giving Mommy a blinding headache and combining with a greasy pizza to cause Peter to upchuck on the way home.
6/3/1984: Our car stalled tonight on the way home from church. Fortunately the Schroeder’s were right next to us and Joel helped us get it started. Behind was a man with a CB who offered to call a tow truck. When the boys asked about him I said he was like the Good Samaritan. When the boys talked about it later it came out “The Good American.”
6/5/1984: Naomi rolled over from stomach to back today!
This evening we went to the Schroeder’s for dinner. Afterwards Joel & Stephen went over the car to see what needs to be fixed.
6/8/1984: Down to Grandma and Grandpa Barr’s for what will probably be our last visit before moving.
6/9/1984: Grandma and Grandpa babysat the kids tonight while Stephen and I went to a melodrama and then to a Chinese restaurant to celebrate our anniversary.
6/18/1984: Naomi has discovered her feet! I told Connie at the softball game that Naomi would never be able to get her feet into her mouth like Bridget does because she’s so chubby. Then when we came home, what did she do but stick her foot in her mouth!
6/22/1984: Stephen handed in his resignation today. There’s no turning back now.
6/23/1984: I had a yard sale at Tina’s today. I was really disappointed at the turnout. We have decided to do it again next Friday.
6/25/1984: Stephen’s team won the softball game tonight. Afterwards we went to Heron’s for ice cream. Daddy and the boys shared a banana split.
Stephen went to the doctor about his eyes – it’s pink-eye.
6/29/1984: We held the yard sale again today. There still wasn’t much of a crowd but someone did by the TV which boosted our receipts. After paying for the newspaper ads we’ve made about $100.00.
The boys had their first bus ride today.
6/30/1984: Our Sunday school class had a party for the Heins tonight. Several people made home-made ice cream. Afterwards we took several group pictures.
