Pieces of Summer 2009

We went to Three Forks to visit Justin and Andrea and the family.
The kids love Auntie Jenna and Auntie Krissa
We went to Virginia City
We all rode on the old railroad.
In July, my Aunt Lucille and Uncle Bob came from Texas
to visit. We had a bbq, and enjoyed their time here.
Lucille is my mom's sister.
Krissa pulled the kids around in the wagon that's usually
used for yard work. They had fun with the improvised ride.
Liam
Jaci
Dylan
Brayden
Jenna & Krissa ... nice to have a sister to love!
They were admiring all their hard work placing bark
in the yard. They did a good job!
In Seattle with Shaun & Krissy's family
Whitney kept coming up to me and saying,
"Grandma, I want to hold you!"
So fun to be held by Whitney! ;o)
Happy Annie!
Mount Rainier ... can you see it? (It's kinda
small in this pic, but we've been there and not
seen it several times so we became obnoxious
saying "There's Mount Rainier!")
At the zoo ... Liam, Whitney and Isaac
Don't know the lemur friends' names.
Krissa, Stephen & Jenna on the
ferry to Vashon Island
Cole, Liam, McKenzie & Annie
Shaun, Tad and Cole
Lighthouse on Vashon Island
Stephen, Jenna and Krissa enjoying the sun
Enjoyed being there together!
Stephen & Jenna
Waiting for the ferry, and an ice cream truck
conveniently stopped by. Happy kids!
Blessing day for Nathan Tad -
Krissy, Nathan, Isaac, Shaun & Whitney
Jenna's 21st birthday occurred while we
were traveling. So we celebrated with chocolate
cake and her new favorite, apple pie!
Grandpa Tad and Grandma Paula with Nathan
Quick trip to Vegas for Tad to check our some equipment.
Of course we had to go to In-n-Out. This was at 10:30 in the morning
there, and there was already a line and the first of several limos we
saw. A double-double is obviously an addiction shared by other people.
We stayed at the Flamingo Hotel in Las Vegas
Jenna at the Las Vegas Temple
Sadly, Krissa could not go to Vegas with us since
she was trekking at Martin's Cove with our stake.
She had a great experience though, and we're glad she
could participate in that.

Wonderful summer memories! We are going to be getting an In-N-Out in Draper & one in Orem so soon you won't have to travel so far to get to one ;-) We love In-N-Out too!

I love all the pictures! The grand kids are getting big already! Ah! That means we're all getting older... yikes. I have to say, I love Jenna's hair brown. She looks so beautiful and what the heck, she has a boyfriend? Excited to see you all at the end of the month. :)
