sharing more memories . . .

How precious is a daughter who loves her mother?

What do you think of my new car?

Here it is - my Honda CRV. I am really enjoying driving it around. The girls in my Laurel class got to ride in it on Wednesday and they definitely approved.

Cassia - in her own words . . .

One of the cutest videos - ever! Thanks to Crystal, I actually figured out how to download it for everyone to enjoy.

Family Fun (with content this time!)

We had a lot of fun when the kids visited in August. Here are a few of the pictures I took to capture the treasured moments.

Whittier Family Pictures

Grandma Whittier and all of her children with spouses. Grandma was thrilled (even though you can't tell by

                                      her expression) - we are still teasing her about that!

Grandma was a little happier when she was surrounded by her children, spouses looking on. 

                                                  Don't know what that means -

                                                                      Just the girls!

     I thought I would share a few more pictures I took on the day of Grandma's birthday party.  It was rainy outside during our noon-time meal, but then the sun came out and it was quite pleasant on the deck.  We had a good visit while Glen's boys (and Alec - Angela's son) played games on the back lawn and, as you can see, had a little too much fun in the hot tub!!

Last, but not least, I actually got a picture of Dad.  He is pretty camera shy these days.

Landscaping Project Completed!

The "weed patch" is now a beautiful garden!! We completed the sod laying this afternoon, with the help of a few good neighbors.

Grandma Whittier's birthday party

Grandma Whittier was so happy to see all of her children together at her birthday party on Monday. She loved the cookie cake and only having to blow out one candle on her 87th birthday!

A fun week in Moscow and Bremerton!

My first blog! I am sooo excited!!!Thank you Katie, Ryan, Crystal and Cassia for being such good host/hostesses for me as I visited last week! I loved seeing your new homes and the communities you now belong to.
