4th of July Fun

Eldon and Candy, w/ Devlen and Dayton decided to come and spend the day with us on the 4th of July. Neil and Maddy decided to stick around for the day as well. It was impromptu but the mostest fun!!! We rode motorcycles, ate, played games, swam, and rode motorcycles. Arlin taught Dayton how to ride one of the bigwheels and his hinder was pretty much attached to it the entire day! Then, in the evening Eldon set off a few fireworks.

Raegan followed us home from Utah!

After the wedding Raegan decided to take a needed little break! She drove Jodi home to Lacey and then came to stay the night w/ us Sunday night and slept in our sleeping shed (I'm pretty proud of her!!!). I had to work Monday so she said she layed around all day ~um.....I'd have to see that one to believe it~ RAEGAN????? When I got home from work we ate and then played tons!! We rode the big wheels all around the property (garth's kids were here too and we did our best to dodge them so we wouldn't run them over or jump them)
Then we played a fun game Jennie gave Arlo for F's day, called Bananagrams

~we really like it~ then we watched a movie called forever strong. I would highly recommend that show. Raeg's on her way to her sister's now. It was fun having her here!!!

(I had to prove that I was there too, didn't I?)

We spent the Day with Raegan's family on Saturday

Tan-Tan got MARRIED!!!

It would have been nice if I had gotten a picture of the Happy Couple. But here's the happy (remainder of) family!!

I've Been to Utah and Just Got Back Today!!!

Our Sleeping Shed

We used to have a cute little trailer in this spot, but it was old, rotting, and musty smelling...........We painted and scrubbed it but it never let go of those problems so we hauled it off (Neil found a willing owner) and Jesse built this cute little shed in it's place. Which I like better cause you're sleeping outside (open front) with a roof over your head.

We celebrated Margaret's life on May 21st, 2009

My friend Mary's beautiful mother, Margaret


A classic!!!! Neil & Brent


Now hold on until we say it's time to let go...........


okay, let go!
Goodbye Margaret! We will never forget you.
