BiG fOoT!

Well I have heard of people who need to buy different size shoes for each foot....thus far we just go with the bigger size shoes for both. Kind of interesting don't you think?

Me and My Mom

We had a great 18 day visit! Full of talks and walks and rides and shopping, a little ice cream every so often and a whole lot of visiting. We will just have to do it again sooner than later. I Love You Mom. Thank you for coming to see us. Thanks to Tracy and Sarah for making it possible.

San Diego

So we are very blessed to have a visitor from the great white north. Litttle Mama.

Doubly blessed to visit with Timothie

Triple blessed to fly to San Diego with Mom to spend a few days with her sister Peggy's family.
While we were there....we went shopping, eat ice cream, black licorice, salad, cup cakes and birdnests. We played a game, read, watched a so you think you can dance...

but best of all was seeing everyone again. My cousins made special efforts to bring their families for a family dinner friday night.

We had a lot of really great chats. Laughed and Learned.

This could be a new family tradition! ?

Dog Gone Kayak

It was time for an outing as I finished up my 6 hour a day college class. For Fathers day weekend I wanted to take Steve to do some of his favorite things. We made a very bold attempt to go camping and there was no room at the campground...so we made the most of a day trip. Steve caught his limit of fish...various sizes and 3 different types to put them all back.

Rodney, Baxter and I met up with our tour guides Mr. and Mrs. Mallard. They stayed with us for most of our tour. We also saw 3 storks. There was no barking until it was time to leave and they saw there own kind at the dock.

This was their second trip kayaking, so they new what was going on! The first time they dove in a few times. This time they sat on a favorite blanket and soaked in the scenery as drops of water would fall on them from the paddle. Had it been hotter out I think they may have gone for a dip.

It is nice to be together and hear the sounds of nature all around us.

Ventures' Adventures

Well the boys are back from the adventure. Here are some of the best photos. Enjoy the amazing wonders of creation. They sure did!
