Spring Break Vacation, April 2008

For Spring Break this year we decided to go to Mesquite in Southern NV for a break from the cold weather and snow. We spent most of our time at one of the four swimming pools at the Oasis Resort. It seemed we had the place to ourselves no matter where we went. The palm trees waving in the warm breeze made it feel almost tropical.







Our tennis games were always fun but never too serious.
I only kept score when I was winning. The girls were just
happy to get the ball over the net. They were very funny.
Each night we had the courts to ourselves. Soooo fun.


Mini Golf before the drive home.


Jenna's concentrating. She comes in second after
Curtis, Mom then in third. Can't believe she kicked
her mom's butt in mini golf. Never thought I'd see
the day. Way to go Jenna!


Waiting in line for go carts


We all had an absolute BLAST on the go carts!
We had to do go carts two days it was so much fun.
A fun vacation always goes by quickly. It was nice
to enjoy a bit of summer early. 90 degree's by the
pool is the way to go! It cooled off and got windy
just in time to come back to reality of mountain life.
We were able to build a wonderful family memory.

Easter 2008


A sleepy Jenna and Katelyn wake up at 8:00 am.



Lexi won't get out of bed so Jenna brings Easter to her.
After tickling and teasing Lexi still won't get out of bed.

Finally!

The Easter egg hunt begins...................

then off to church.

Home in the afternoon to eat a ton and relax, perfect!
Poor Curtis is in bed sick. Hopefully next year he can
wake up at dawn to play Easter Bunny!

Girls Weekend Out!


I'm loving San Diego in January. Thank you Laura for the nice place to stay. Lunch and shopping in the city was so fun!

Ready to par-tay!

Holly, Tracy, Jeri Ann & Laura
A night on the town. Dinner, hysterical laughing and reminiscing into the late night.

A day of shopping in La Jolla.

On January 10, 2008 I flew to San Diego to visit my closest friends from High School. It was a wonderful girls weekend out. I felt very much at home in California and hope to make it back to stay someday. Thanks for the great time girls! Can't wait for next year!

Reno & Northern California Trip

August 2007

Lunch with the Duncans in Colfax. It was wonderful to see you.
A very enjoyable afternoon at the fair.
That afternoon and evening, while at the Nevada County Fair in my home town of Grass Valley, California I ran into old friends I hadn't seen in years. My sister and I enjoyed the evening paying gobs of money so our kids could ride on carnival rides until they kicked us out! We had a blast!
