Memorial Day 2007

To remember all of those who gave their life for our freedom! Have a great Memorial Day.


For my family I am posting a picture that Jocelyn took for me on April 29th, 2007. We took some flowers to the cemetary that day in rememberance of both dad and mom. I blocked out the name on the picture for blogger privacy.
Time for a garden update. Gary and Ron look like they are trying to decide how to deal with all of the weeds. Ron says: "It's too bad the vegetable seeds don't sprout so easy! Just like evil thoughts sprout when we aren't looking, the weeds just pop up everywhere."

Things are looking a little better. TJ and Sadie are "supervising" and it looks like break time again. Shortly after this they decided to put down the hoe and shovel and go get the tiller. The job was completed in no time after that. The tomatoes, cantalop, watermelon and peppers are still sitting on the kitchen counter because Gary is afraid we might get a nasty storm and he will have have start over with them. That is the prediction for this afternoon and it doesn't look to good outside right now. I got all of the flowers for my barrels and planters but they too are sitting in the kitchen. Too expensive to put outside and have a storm destroy them the same day.

Family Picture Time

Since the whole family was together on Saturday we decided to have a family picture session at the local Sears. Thought you might all like to see some of the photos we had taken. The kids were so good and actually seemed to enjoy the whole experience. Even all the guys were good sports and went along with whatever the photographer asked them to do.
This is the whole crew.... not the best picture in the bunch but not the worst either.

Krista, Scott and Kayleigh

Craig, Jocelyn and Brooklyn

Jaret, Kara and Evan

I think this is one of my favorite pictures from the whole session. My three kids with each of their kids.

Prints of some of the best pictures will be coming soon to all the relatives so be patient. Anyone else who wants a picture just let me know. We got the disk from Sears so can reprint any of the pictures we want.
