Are you seeing Double?


Nope you are not seeing double. Gavin inherited a bird. She is on the left. Paige's bird is on the right. Our friends had 2 birds, their favorite bird accidentally got out of their house, so they gave this bird to Gavin. It was really sad for that family, but it worked out for us. Her name is Peeca. She is a bit timid, but Gavin is in hog heaven and is trying to train her. She was a rescue bird so that is probably one of the reasons why she is timid.

Happy Birthday Garrett!

As you can see we were camping with some friends of ours over the 4th of July. It was Garrett's birthday on the 3rd. He is 17 years old! Where has the time gone! He got some fun things including 60.00 dollars worth of Itunes from his girlfriends mom. Well X girlfriends mom. The next day she broke it off with him. It was the worst birthday and one that Garrett will never forget, but he now he can look back and realize that it was all for the best. She was a nice girl, but it was not the right timing. He still has a lot to accomplish before he gets serious. He also has told me that now he can be himself. He doesn't have to impress anyone. He has grown up a lot!
Happy birthday Garrett!

NEW JOB!!!!!!

While I don't have a picture of this great event, we are so excited to announce the new job that Ron has landed! He is working for a company called Assisted Living Concepts. It is located in Spokane Washington. His job is Regional Sales Manager. The pay is wonderful, and they are grooming him for Regional VP! This is right up Ron's field of education and he is so excited! It is very interesting that I have been in the assisted living arena for almost 3 years, and now Ron as well is working in this field. Thanks to all for the prayers that were offered in our behalf! I could feel them from everyone!

Cool days of Summer


This was really a cool day! Ron and Gavin went out to work on the car, and this little deer just walks up to them and enjoyed a good scratch. She spent the morning in our yard enjoying the grass and her new human parents. Paige and I as well were able to scratch her as well, but of course I didn't have the camera at that point. So glad we caught these pictures with Gavin. I will truly miss all the wildlife that we have enjoyed for 2 years. We found a place in town to move into, so hopefully by Aug. that's where we will be.

More Camping

One of the girls that came with us has a love for horses, and in the camp the ranger had horses, so Paige was able to lead this horse around, and had a ball!
Tarp heaven!
All these little girls are 9 years old! Lots of fun!
All different ages for my kids to hang with.

More Camping

We were always eating! We had a ton of food!




This is Matt Connery holding all the little kids. Some are cousins and some are just friends, but we consider all of us to be family. It really is kind of fun!

Camping over Memorial Day with our Other Family

We went to a place close to Orofino Idaho. Close to Dworshak dam.
It was beautiful, and the company was wonderful as well.
We went with Karenna's family, and had a blast!

We sold our trailer, and got this tent. I thought I would never tent camp again.
Never say never!



Katie (Karenna's mom) made this bar cookie, and it got a bit hard.
These guys really know how to camp. There were trailers, but no one
slept in them, and the kitchen was set up under tarps to keep the rain off
