Charlottes awesome afternoon

I found this for Charlotte in a magazine. She thought it was interesting and helpful.
She is now regular in all her habits since she has been with us this afternoon.

My Dad and Mom

I'm doing Genealogy lately. I have been scanning pictures off of my mother's picture books. She is now 86 years young.
My Dad was so handsome and my mother gorgeous.
Life is full of decisions , directions and many detours. I'm so glad that my father and mother met and had me.
My siblings and I have the best parents!
So much rich heritage and when I read about my ancestors , it helps me understand the trials of my own life.
I have a good husband and family now.
My children and two grandchildren are such a joy to me!
Memorial Day is just a day of remembrance.
I vow to take time to live life to the fullest today. I love my family.
Pictures are of my Good dad, gone 11 years now, and my beautiful mother still living life to the fullest.

Nola's Dad's Buckskin coat and Family! Yeah Gabe!!

Hi everyone, 

Attached are some pictures that we tried on at Nola's Sisters home LaFaye in Grandpa Steeds Buckskin coat.

So much is happening and I don't have time in a day to finish everything.

 Craig and I are busy in our work and Sophie is growing so tall.

 She is as tall as me now :5'7" yikes I'm a dwarf mom , even in the standards of my and Craig's kids They are all taller than me! 

Gabriel Passed all of his tests and interviews to become a Fireman!!! We are so Proud of him. He was sick the day he had to do his physical Test. 

He was tenacious and showed the fire commission reviewers, how strong and fast he was. Gabe carried a "Dummy body" ( maybe 140lbs) down a flight of stairs and one out the window in 8.45 minutes. 

He was offered a job that day! !!!! This is very difficult and competitive. He finished 2nd in his test of 700 Applications for his written tests.

We are proud of you Gabe!

Ashley is due on April 20th.  Gabe , Ashley and Cannon are expecting a little Boy and are wanting to name him Tyson. My mom wants them to name him Eli. :-)

We will be in Germany with Ted and Nola and Craig's siblings and spouses. Eight of us on a River cruise down the Rhine! What a generous opportunity that Ted and Nola are paying our way, room and board and wonderful company!

Thank you Ted and Nola! Craig and I are looking forward to this trip, but  I get nervous and hate leaving Sophie and Ashley being due with little Tyson. I know things will be alright! 

Carrisa will take good care of her for 5 and a hlf days, then she will be on "Spring break" with Her dad until We get back. . We miss you Brett and Charlotte. and all of our family that are 

away from us.

My sister Katy came down last month and visited from Washington. I wish I could of spent more time with her. 

I'm so thankful for Craig ! We make a good team and make life fun and laugh a lot.

 We love having Carrisa with us. 

Sophie gets to "hang on" her cause Charlottes not around to hang on ... Carrissa is thriving and doing well in school.

We love and hope you are all happy and healthy!

Love Mary

Happy New Year
