Happy 60th Birthday Andy!

Tim has such a great family!  They have always been so kind and supportive to us.  His parents have made us feel important in their family, and for that I am so thankful!  Tim's dad had the big "Six Oh" this week.  Woo Woo!  Happy Birthday!  

I'm posting the slideshow I put together for him so that the family that lives away can enjoy. 

We Love You!

Addiction Confession

I love pictures.

There. It's out in the open. I know, I know. It's a surprise to most of you. I can't help it! I go somewhere, and I just have to take a picture. We go boating, and I have to take pictures! I have hundreds of tubing and skiing and beach pictures, but I just can't help myself! I find myself whipping out that camera hoping that I catch them crashing. It's my favorite. Wa ha ha! I love it when you can still see hands or feet sticking out of the water.

So it is with great pride that I present two of the latest crash pictures.

Danny, I have some awesome pictures of you flipping in the air, but I don't want to post those. I only want this awesome inevitable crash. The look of fear down at the water; no hands holding onto the rope; it is a priceless picture. His face says it all!

This picture is of Tim. I have to say that it is one of my very favorites! You can see his face; his hand reaching out for the rope; that wicked spray. YES!! I can't help it. You know I love you, babe.

Sleepless In Seattle 2010

Thanks to Coca-Cola & Zingers, we were able to drive through the night and arrive safely in Seattle the next morning. Now, why would I want to drive all night, you may ask? Because any drive is much, much, much better if that sweet little two-year-old Megan is asleep!!

So we met almost all of Tim's family (Mark & Amy & crew missed out- bummer) and had a mostly great time (mostly, meaning that it was a normal day with that sweet two-year-old... some good times & some temper tantrum times...)!! It was a little crazy with so many people, but wonderful to be together.

Here is our big group shot. Yes, I put my camera on a tripod and used the self-timer. Run, Celeste, run! We had a great outdoorsy spot picked out, and then it just kept raining. So this is the front of Rebecca's house. It worked beautifully! Thank you Alan & Rebecca for putting in so much for this reunion- including the mass chaos at your house! (Family: I'm going to try to photoshop in Mark & Amy & crew- so I'll send a picture to you soon if it works out. Cheating, I know!)

We had fun at Pike's Place Market, the Seattle Aquarium, the Pacific Science Center and the Space Needle. (I put most of the pictures in the slide show, because I wanted to include so many...)

I think the best part was just being able to hang out and be crazy!

These cousins are so funny to watch play.

Well, more Coke & chocolate got us home.

All in all, it was great! It was so nice to see everyone!

We sure love you all!

Happy 80th Birthday Grandma D!

I had so much fun with my dad's 60th birthday video that I had to do another one with Tim's family for his grandma's 80th birthday! I think my family was more into the singing portion, while Tim's family, Wow. The dance moves are beyond description. Amy, you are still a cheerleader at heart!

Happy Birthday Grandma! We Love You!

Flaming Gorge

Every year Tim's family returns to Flaming Gorge. The water is FREEZING, but so perfect for waterskiing! Here is our campground nestled beneath the mountains. (If you look closely, you can see little boats.)

Tim wakeboarding in the canyons. It is so beautiful!

Tamara & I tubing.

Here I go!! Notice I'm still hanging on! I LOVE looking at crash pictures. I can't help it! They make me happy.

Tim cliff jumping. Woo Hoo!

I've decided that camping was a lot more fun before worrying about three little kids. It's a lot of work now! It's worth it, though. Right?? All those good memories, and stuff...
