Kelly and Justin's Wedding

Some of these pictures were taken before the wedding and some after - they are in no particular order! :-) The weather was warm but beautiful! The wedding was held at the outdoor Idaho Shakespeare Theatre & the facilities were great. We had an area for the wedding ceremony, two rooms for the reception - one for the dinner buffet, one for the cupcakes, coffee, tea, and ice water as well as mingling with the guests. Then there was an outdoor patio. We had about 25 tables outside for the guests. The outdoor areas were just beautiful - some of the trees were changing colors and it was breathtaking!
Here are some more pictures of the wedding.
Wow, it has been forever since I blogged! I thought that I'd put on the blog some pictures of Kelly's wedding that I downloaded to our computer. It was such a busy time so I didn't take many pictures myself but Derrick took some for us with our camera.
We had a wet Valentine's Day but it was sweet anyway!! My sweetie gave me beautiful earrings and a card with Fergie on it (at least it looked like Fergie!). Love to each and everyone of my family & friends that check my blog. You are very special to me! Here are some pictures from our family time during the Christmas season. The beautiful shawl that Kelly crocheted for me and gave me for Christmas. I cried . . . it is so stunning! Henry and Nana standing in front of the gingerbread house. In front of the ice rink at "The Village in Meridian." The Robinson girls with Jack at the Watson's house on Christmas Eve! Becca and the boys keeping warm in front of one of the many fire pits at "The Village."

Happy Thanksgiving

We had a nice Thanksgiving Day dinner at Brent's sister's house with the Watson clan. It was very relaxing for me (we just brought an appetize). On Friday afternoon all the family (except Brent) met at our house for another Thanksgiving dinner. This one was exhausting but so much fun!! Becca, Hollie, & I made tons of food. Kelly's friend, Justin, joined us for the feasting and giving of thanks! Thanksgiving at Jamie & Thad's house My sweetie! Justin, Kelly, and Becca - note the beautiful crocheted purse that Becca made Kelly for her birthday! Hollie and Jack giving Fergie some attention! Henry is ready to eat at his 2nd Thanksgiving celebration.

Happy Fall (in Retrospect)

Well, I didn't have much of a fall this year. . . not because fall ceased to exist but because I was sick for most of it!!! However, I am blessed with a wonderful family that cared for me and gave me some great photo opportunites!! I am so thankful for God's many blessings this year. Becca, Henry, and Jack helped Papa rake and clear our yard of a carpet of leaves. I think that they filled 11 bags of leaves. The boys earned some money because they worked so hard!! We all had fun, too!
We had a fun weekend recently when my cousin, Joy, came to Meridian for a visit. We had a scrap-a-thon at Archivers, drank coffee, ate good food (including Kringla that Becca made) & talked & talked! Of course, Joy & the girls acted up a bit but hopefully I was a good influence (tee hee)! I wrote this in an email to Joy: "Our camping time was cut short because Rich got a lead on a job!! He needed to get back so he could get all of his information (resume, application, etc) in on Monday. Then Tues. he had an interview, Wednesday he found out that he got the job and  he started on Thurs. Whew!! What a whirlwind!  He is working as a Transitional Education Specialist for Canyon Springs High School in Caldwell. He spends most of his time with boys in a detention facility - helping them to keep up with their studies. He will be continuing to stay connected to them after they are released from detention. His job is to assist them in whatever way possibl...

Gone Camping

Create your own scrapbook We had two wonderful weeks in McCall this summer. Rich, Fergie, and I went up in June and Hollie and her dogs, Van and Lucy, joined us for two days. Then last week, we headed north again with Hollie and three dogs (she added her room mate's dog, Moe, too). Derrick and Susie joined us on Monday night & then Kelly and her friend, Bethany, arrived on Tuesday night. Another friend of Kelly's, Justin, was able to drive up on Wednesday night and stay until the next day. We had a wonderful time of eating, visiting, hiking, swimming, shopping (Susie & I), and hanging out around the campfire. It went too fast for me but we console ourselves and say, "There is always next year."

Henry's Kindergarten Graduation

Henry had his kindergarten graduation ceremony and his birthday party (it really was his birthday) on the same day. What fun to see him learn, mature, and hit two big milestones (he is 6)! He is such a precious boy! He is posing at his party with Jack and his cousin, Ben.
