The End of an Era!

Uncle Warren (Colonel) died on June 18, 2009. He was the last of my father's siblings. It seems like a whole time in my life has closed down. I still have the memories, but no one to talk about them that remember. We made a trip to his early birthday (95th) in Febuary, they said he wouldn't last until March when his real birthday was. As I talked to him then, he said he was going to make it to his birthday, he made it past. His family told us that in the end he was seeing and talking to his father and my dad Everett. I know there was a grand old party on the other side when they all got together. I think of all the years I enjoyed these group of people and I am thankful that I had that time.. Sometimes I think we are so into life that we miss the real thing. I hope when I go, that someone will be able to say, we spent time with her and have a lot of good memories to hold in our hearts. The people, friends, and family are what life is all about, it is so important to love each other and always be thankful we are together.

Cold Bear Lake Birthday

Haylee wanted to go to Bear Lake for her bithday, no problem, except spring did not come this year, so it rained. We were game for anything, no hesitation. We headed up to Tori's house and all cramed into her small home. AJ, her family, Amanda, her son, a friend of AJ's Brandy, Haylee and Us. We were sleeping all over. On Sat. morning the was a spot where we thought it would be good to take off and head to the Lake. As you can see from the picture, it was not the best, but we had fun. Of course the kids thought it was great. The adults were a little cold, some of them cold or not braved the cold to go into the water. It was a fun time with all the family that was there. We are thankful for Tori for putting up with us. Love us or not I am sure she was glad to see us go. We are so thankful to be able to do all these fun things with our family.
