Grandma Camp 2009



This is Ethan, Amelia and Hayden petting a pig. This is also during the time that Brock was lost. Poor Brock. I felt so bad that I left him at the bathroom and he couldn't find us.










Ethan, Brigham and Johnnie got to ride up front on the wagon ride.














Angela is holding Hayden. Hyrum Amelia and Brock are on the side with Johnnie and Ethan are up front.











Brock, Brigham and Amelia found one of the few rides they were tall enough to ride on. Hyrum got to ride it with his mom and the look on his face was priceless! He looked scared to death!






On our last day we went to DQ for ice cream. Amelia, Lia and Hyrum are enjoying their Blizzards.

More Grandma Camp 2009






Even Regan got on the pony with Brigham.














Hyrum liked the ponies too.














Amelia REALLY liked the pony ride!















Johnnie and Ethan were to heavy to ride the ponies so they went on the bungie jump.














Ethan can do a back flip!

We went to the county fair on Thursday. Hayden's favorite thing was the pony ride!











Ethan tried out the stuff in the science center.














These are all the kids that went to the fair... before I lost Brock! Poor Brock. This is l to r: Hayden, Brock, Johnnie, Brigham, Ethan, Amelia and Hyrum.










Hyrum and Hayden played with squirt guns.

















Hayden loves bugs and things. She is showing me a frog they caught.

Grandma Camp 2009


This year for Grandma Camp we did lots of fun stuff. On Tuesday we went to the Madras Auquatic Center with all 10 grandkids and Angela and Jenniann. Even Regan at 4 months old loved the water. She went to sleep in it. This is Angela, Johnnie and Regan.

Hayden is giving me the stare. She had lots of fun as long as Grandma or Johnnie was playing with her.


Ethan loved the slide....


and so did Johnnie!

Short Vacation


My brother's, Steve and Kent, and I met for the weekend on the Oregon Coast to spread the ashes of our Dad who passed away in March 08. Mark didn't make it. We enjoyed the weekend together.
This is l to r: Steve's wife Elaine, daughter Megan, Steve, Kent, Kent's wife Jewell, Curt (holding Dad), Me, Emily.
Steve flew from Omaha so it was a treat to visit the ocean. Emily also flew out for the visit.



Emily and Megan enjoy hanging out together. We stayed at the Inn at Spanish Head in the background.
Steve wanted to visited the Evergreen Museum in McMinnville to see the Spruce Goose. It is HUGE!
This is a rare photo where Steve allowed a smile and stood still.
We also visited the Japanese Gardens in Portland. Emily is being a little "cheesy".
We went on an awesome whitewater trip down the Deschutes one day too, but I'll have to get those photos developed. They weren't on my digital camera.
