Fun Site!

At the end of my work day, one of my engineers showed me the following sites!

It is SOOOO Cool!!!! You could waste a lot of time there!

By clicking on the words at the bottom (fire, water, pant, etc) and drawing above, you will effect the falling sand. This probably makes no sense, but give it a try!!

Pictures from Spokane trip

On the way to Spokane, we tried using having August wear headphones while she watched her movies. She looked so cute.

The pictures don't do the river justice, so here is a little video. It was so beautiful to see the water CRASHING over the rocks.The last few times I have visited, there was hardly any water in the river.

After watching the river, everyone wanted to play on the slide. It was so much fun to see everyone play and have a good time together. August had tons of fun climbing to the top and sliding down all by herself. This picture to the right is of Kaylee, her friend, and August going up the stairs to the slide for the first time.

Zoo Pictures

Nick and I went to Hogle Zoo in May with August, Royce, and Sky.

August would not stand next to the Gorilla. So, Mom and Baby Brother came to the rescue. This is the best picture we could get.

We tried to get August to hold still infront of Nick, but being 2 (I talking about August), she just wouldn't do it.

Royce was a wonderful little boy. He didn't fuss or cry the whole time. We had to make sure that this little red-headed boy was covered up. August kept trying to take his hat away, saying it was her hat.

One thing we had to do was to get our picture taken in the groundhog holes. August was unsure of what we were doing in the tight confined space.

Brooke's Graduation!

Today I am my sister's home in Spokane, Washington. I drove up with my little sister, her two kids, and my nephew on Thursday. We were going to drive straight through, but due to a terrible storm we stoped in Missoula, MT for the night.

Yesterday, we drove to River Front park to see the falls. WOW!!! I will post some pictures when I get home. There was so much water, that we were getting wet from the spray. One interesting thing was the dead beaver that Cody found below the bridge.

I get the privlage of staing on the bottom bunk in Megan's room. And last night it was great to have a place to sleep, because we were up late getting ready to help at Brooke's High School all-nighter.

Brooke graduated from University High School in Spokane. She now gets to look for a job and go to the comunity collage here.

As I am typing this Cody, my sister's oldest boy, is poking my arm and blaming Brooke. He thinks he is so funny. What can you expect from a 14 yr old.

It has been so much fun staying with my sister and her family. I am glad that we came for the weekend to celebrate this occasion.
