Hi....it's been ages!

Our family in Tygh Valley, Oregon, on Sunday, May 27th, at the Memorial Day ALC Campout, where we had the babies baptized.

Dad, Geneva, Alice, Brighton, Mason, Karen and Dewayne in Bonners Ferry, Idaho on Friday, June 1st.

Life has been a little crazy. It all started one day back in April and it hasn't stopped since. The day after my birthday, that sweet husband of mine told me I could go visit my family in Washington and Oregon if I could find someone to fly down with me. I went for a week and a half on my own (with a friend flying on the same flight, who held one of the babies as a lap baby for me) and then Dewayne flew down and we then went and spent almost a week with his family in Idaho and Montana. It was awesome seeing everyone that I did and getting to share my babies with everyone. I got to see all my siblings that live down there plus two more that flew out just because I was going to be there!! Also, numerous nieces and in-laws, and great nieces and nephews. Whew...now we are back home and trying to recover. We've been home for a week and half a day and we still have the colds we picked up down there. I've never had a cold last so long and my children haven't either. It's the babies first cold and man, it's a doozy! We are loving being back home and settling back into life and our routine.
