Random

Random kids photography from Blakelee's camera. Cousins are so much fun. Faith and Emily.
Parker rocks out.

Parker and Spencer. Any vacation with the Field's and Rich's is Parker's fave. Lots of boys.

So cute.

Good look for you Megan.

So much fun

Megan in an attempt to not look wierd in a picture. This was not the first shot.
James and Reese.

We pretty much took over this Arbys.

With this many kids in tow I'm not surprised no one else wanted to dine in.

Swimming

The best part.
The pool was it.

At least for the kids. Where's your book Michelle? These pictures were on a different camera. Which is only half my excuse. The other, I do not know how to put them on the computer. Gregg said this is a reason to keep him around.

The tumbler

I had to document this even if it was awhile ago. When we were in Utah we went to watch Megan's tumbling meeet. She took 4th. Awesome flipper.
And did I mention twister.

The fans. Faith and Emily.

Natalie, Faith and Emily.

Me, Keely, Michelle and Marilyn. Wendell came a little later and Reese took the picture. The rest of the crew hung out at the condo. We were so glad we could be there to support Megan. Way to go girl.

Hiking

Gregg and Reese went on a hike for memorial day.

They rolled out of bed early and hit the trail.

Blakelee was mad that Gregg was taking Reese to the bridge to Terabithia without her.

No one else seemed to be bothered Reese got to go alone with her dad. They were too busy sleeping in.

Camping with Parker.

Hiking with Reese.

What's next? The pool? I can only hope. You go super dad.

Sisters

Bree and Blakelee. This is at the River Festival on Bree's birthday. Blakelee is the spitting image of Bree when she was little. Sometimes I get their pictures confused.
Reese just couldn't get enough of that cold water.

Happy Birthday Bree

Bree turned the big one seven this year.
I think she knew what all these gifts were.

That's the price for being picky, no surprises. We've had alot of ups and downs with this girl in the last 17 years. She's doing well in school, has a part time job that her boss raves about her at and is a good friend to her sisters and brother. No accidents or tickets in the car in the last year. Bree has been a happy-go-lucky teenager with a good attitude. She enjoys reading, talking on the phone, going to the river and memorizing movie lines. Thanks for being a part of our family Bree we love you.

Father son campout

Our dusty van after a long trek down a bumpy road. I'm sure Gregg was cursing this drive.
The Reno Third Ward camp. Gregg teased Shawn mercilessly for that old tent.

It was a small group but Gregg and Parker had a great time.

Parker and his buddy Carter. This is Parker's cool tent. The Roser's gave it to him for his birthday last year.

Gregg had the chance to be security for visiting general authorities this same night. Bednar, Cook and someone else. He decided going camping with Parker was more important. What a good dad. They had a great time. Shawn told me at church how much fun Gregg made it for all of them. Parker wants to go camping every Friday night from now on.

The Reno River Festival

This made me laugh so I made Reese stand here while I took a picture. True to form no sooner do we get to the River Festival and Reese has to go to the bathroom. They have these portables all lined up in park so I took her over there and told her that's where she had to go. She came out grumpy and informed me that when she is a mother she will never makes her child use a portable toilet. Thus the unhappy face, she did not want to go in there and she did not want to be photographed with it either.
She did love to put her feet in the icy water.

The first time we went to the river fest Blakelee was wearing a bandage on her repaired broken nose. This was her nostalgic pose in memory of that day.

Cuties.

The weather was beautiful. Between the river and softball we got alot of vitamin d that weekend.

Got Pictures?

I finally got someone to put pictures on the computer. This was from last month. Brian came to visit and we took a trip to the mighty Scheels. This is the hacker on the putting green in the golf dept.

Reese with an orange putter, emphasis on orange. The batting cages.


It's all about the poses.

Parker should have played baseball. He's a decent little hitter.

All this batting practiced payed off. Blakelee was on fire in her last half-dozen games. Getting hits all the time and striking out the batters from the mound. Way to go Blakelee.

Brian even had fun here.

Reese was a little frustrated but managed to work it out and get some hits.

More fun with Brian. We had one perfect day while he was here and enjoyed going to the park for some tennis.

Well that's what it's called. More running after a little green ball than anything but fun all the same.

Ah yes, and some rock band. I think we've hooked a few of the Heddell brothers on this game.

Thanks for the visit Brian we had a blast.
