Day at South Twin Lake

 Jack is happiest when he is with his Daddy doing....ANYTHING!!!

                                               Grant...his last summer before entering school!

                                                                               Jesse!

                                 Jack does not like the "fuss" that is required to get a picture taken

Grant's Hospital Stay the end of June

We had to take Grant in to the ER in the month of June because he had a low grade fever and severe neck pain.  They suspected spinal meningitis and he spent one night in the hospital.  After all that, it was not meningitis but remained a mystery.  He made a complete recovery, thankfully!

 Grant was well suited for hospital life...a woman waited on him and his every desire, someone brought him jello on a tray, and his family sat by his side, thinking every comment and smile were wonderful...But, his favorite part was this...(scroll down)

He LOVED that he had an IV!  We explained that it was like he had a small straw in his vein that was putting vitamins and water in his body to help him get better...He thought it was pretty cool...

June 2011 District Convention

                                            Our Lovely Children (did you catch the sarcasm?)

 Matt had the priveledge of working with the chairman's office during the convention, so, we arrived each day before 8 am!  I have always wondered who in the world the brothers are talking to when they print in the KM that doors open at 8 am.  I was one of those people this year!  This is what we looked like waiting for the doors to open...

 So much for getting a great shot of the boys in front of the stage...Jesse would have nothing to do with it!

                                                                     some dear friends...
