"Friends Always Welcome
relatives need reservations"

Varce carved this for my parents.

It is a saying they enforce.

Varce also carved a sign for my brother Kelly and my sister Liz.
I am so proud of Varce to get these done while working in an outage.

No one can appreciate the hours and sacrifice he does for our family.

The Three Stooges....
I mean the three sisters.Tawnya, Liz, Vicki


My mom and her oldest granddaughter, Nikki


Sunday April 26, 2009 Dad's Birthday

And we got 3 to 4 inches of snow.

Sunday morning we all met at Perkins for breakfast. The Charlie Brown snowflakes were too tempting so I joined my niece Tiffney,my sister Vicki, and Nikki and we all played in the parking lot.When we came in the locals asked us where we were from, it was obvious we weren't from Idaho.


Mom and Dad

Every spring the daffodils poke there heads up and then get snowed on.

This a truly a typical Idaho Spring sight.

Happy 80th Birthday to my Dad.

I love you with all my heart!

Tyia's last weekend


The four kids, and Sadie.









































Big brothers never change!



























My family can entertain us at any given time. After eating we thought it would be nice to get a family photo.... we didn't make it....as the big kids sat on the waterfall they began to fool around....and around...................and more fooling around...................
And everyone was laughing and I just kept shooting photos, and suddenly, Kattie wasn't on the water fall anymore. She has watched her cell phone go slow motion out of her pocket and into the pool. So she followed it.



















I don't know who was the most surprised, Kate or us. Well, then Uncle Oliver said Jackson could go swimming, too.



We finally ended up celebrating the birthday of Jackson. He turned 12, and is now ordained a deacon and has the aronic priesthood. We are so proud of him.




















Kattie gave Jack a book to teach him how to be a computer hacker! Good Grief!!
Zoey had a gift to wrap for Jackson, too. She just couldn't be left out!
