5 Boys and 1 Girl

I'm still the only girl in the house!

We added a 7 week old black lab to our home over the weekend. We have been calling him Toby.

This is the first time Chad has had a dog and he couldn't stand the thought of Toby sleeping outside alone on his first night with our family.

How long has it been...

since my last post...two months=too long=lots of photos!

Spring Break---tried for 3 days to get on a flight to California and the closest place we could get...home! So we drove to Arkansas and stayed at a working ranch...of course my camera died and I only got a few pictures with my phone.

We...slept in the old tac room converted to living quarters (in the horse stables)...ate home cooked meals of goat roast, the best bacon ever, and blackberry pancakes!

We...road horses (except for Ty...don't ask, I have no answer), had a trail ride by moonlight to look at the stars, went on a possum hunt (also by moonlight), enjoyed nightly bon fires, and kids riding a bull (made out of a barrel and springs).

Easter---camping with our friends...we have a trailer, they have a boat...talk about FUN!

May---finally a trip to California to:

*get a milkshake from Superior Dairy

*hang out with nieces, nephews, brothers, sister-in-laws, mom, cousins, aunts and uncles

*get a milkshake from Superior Dairy (did I say that already)

Next post...in a few weeks after all the end of school year activities are done!

Quick trip to Cali

Greg, Chad and I made a quick trip to California last weekend for a funeral and a 50th wedding anniversary.


To make a long story short, Greg's mom used to be married to David Wamhoff and has two younger half brothers (Josh and Jordan) and 5 step brothers and sisters. This is the first time all 11 of them were together in...well, Greg and I have been married 15 1/2 years and they've never been all together in that time. It was a great reunion at a sad time.













And we can't go to California without a trip to Superior Dairy in Hanford for the best milkshakes on the planet (chocholate chip is my favorite)





After breakfast at Superior Dairy (yep, mom is great, she fed us milk shakes for breakfast), we headed over to Aunt Nola and Uncle Leonard's fabulous celebration of 50 years of marital bliss and harmony. What an awesome example they are to all of us young married folks!
