BOOTS

Well i was blog hopping. That is my past time now that i don't work. YIKES!

Anyway i came across these boots and they reminded me of Toni.

When we were on the coast she found this really cute pair of boots that she wishes she would have bought. They were way cute!!!! But when would she ever where them except along the beach digging for clams. Not likely in Utah.

So these are for you Toni.

What can you tell me about this chair?

I remember climbing on the back of it and combing dads hair.

I remember it always being in the kitchen in the corner by the refrigerator.

Grandma sitting in it in the morning after dad had gone to work and being in it all day, working on her braided rugs. Or sitting across from me while i was learning how to make a cake and telling me what not to do. We always called it Grandma's chair. But really it is the family chair.

I remember when dad passed away and Terence, Mondie and I came home, mom was sitting in this chair crying and we all gatherd around her and hugged her and cried so hard.

I remember dad sitting in this chair and mom coming and sitting on his lap.

I start to cry now just remembering the memories of "Grandma's chair".

What memories can you share of this chair?

I would love to hear about it.

Please share!

The Keeper of the light!

This was the tour guide who told us all about the light house, dressed in old authentic atire. He almost looks like a statue.

That little man down at the bottom is Leland. I am at the top looking out the window taking his picture.

Sorry for the mix up in pictures. I don't know how to move them to where i want them. This was a picture i snapped of the waves crashing into shore. I have a great video of them too.

This is a picture of the Yaquina head lighthouse staircase, holding my camera out and snapping a picture going down. I was too afraid to look over the rail and take the picture. I still can't believe i climbed to the top with Jamie and Toni.

A beautiful view of the ocean using a swap color on my camera. You can see the ocean is blue but the rest is black and white.

We hiked up to Munson Falls. So beautiful.

This is Yaquina Head Light house. The most photographed lighthouse. It was so awesome. One of the tallest lighthouses we saw. Again I used a color swap with my camera and i liked how it turned out with the blue sky.

This is Cape Meres. Small but beautiful

The path to Cape Meres Light house.

This was on the road from Garberville to Fort Bragg. We were going to stay in Garberville but the motel was a dump. The head boards were bolted to the wall, the linolium floors were worn and the place was a bit frightful. We went to eat at a resteraunt and the least expensive thing on the menu was $25. We decided to drive on. After we did, well watch for yourself. We named the road the entrence to Hell's Grove.

A little Family get Away!!!!

Just some fun pictures of Family on Saturday after the Scrap booking expo!!!

Do you like Uncle Lelands new Ride???? Look at that Sex appeal....watch out Aunt Toni when he gets on that all the women will want him!!!

Don"t you just love it when you get your picture taken and you look like this!!!!

Shay wasn't to happy about it! Just look at the cheese dripping off of her spoon. I do believe I captured a great moment.

What a great end to the day!!!

Family Isn't wonderful!

PICTURES OF NEW FAMILY MEMBERS HELP!!! HINT HINT TO BRAD/BONNIE.

AND TEMPLE PICTURES. HINT HINT TO WHITNEY.

ANY OLD POST WILL DO!!!!

A CHALLENGE!!!!

I can't believe it is almost the middle of February already.

CONGRATULATIONS TO WHITNEY.

I have been trying to find out how we can all donate to a righteous cause.
I think we should all try to donate a little each month to her missionary fund.
We can do this through our own wards and put it for Whitney/missionary fund.
This will make it tax deductable also.
I will check into it further and let you all know.
Even if you only give $5.00 a month you will get tremendous blessings.
I am going to try for more than that however. Maybe $20.00.
Sounds like a lot when you are unemployed.
So do i have any takers.
How many of you are willing to donate to a righteous cause and get huge blessings from our Heavenly Father for helping in some small way?
That is my challenge to all of you!!!!!!

Lets hear what the rest of you think.
Remember only what you can afford and feel comfortable doing.
Maybe it is only a letter once a month to Whitney to encourage her along the way.
No text messaging, LOL. She is going to go through huge withdrawls. Maybe we can all right her and let her know we are thinking of her. In what ever way you can help it will all count.

Love you all.
Lets hear from all of you
