Arriving at the new house in Vegas!

Our son Brad got a new job in Las Vegas. He is flying tours for "Sundance Helicopters" He flies over Hoover Dam, and takes people down to the bottom of the Grand Canyon, sunset tours of Las Vegas, etc., so they moved to Las Vegas. It was very sad to have them leave. It will be very hard not seeing the grandkids everyday, and Stephanie was my shopping buddy, so it will be lonely with them gone. We wish them the best.

Recitals - June 15/16th, 2012

On our way home from Yellowstone, we stopped at Scott's and went to the grandkids recitals. Alex played in an outdoor concert with the Lyceum Philharmonic Orchestra. He is very good on the violin. The 3 girls were in a dance recital. Ellie was in "Where the Wild Things Are", and Gwyneth, and Andrea were in an Irish Dance. On Sat. we went to the 3 granddaughters ballet "Swan Lake". We have very talented grandchildren, and it is so fun to watch them perform!

Our Camp Spot!

We took a week and went to Yellowstone with Tonya & Kevin. The first day it snowed and was very cold and windy. Everyday we saw such different and beautiful scenery. Their was so much wildlife. We saw a Grizzly, and a Black bear and her cubs. We saw Bison, Elk, Coyote, Bald Eagles. etc. The only thing we didn't see was a moose! The Geysers and mud pots, and sink holes, and waterfalls were magnificent. We had never been there. We spent a day at Lake Yellowstone, and tried some fishing. On one trail, a Bison moved in on us and was only a few feet away. (I happened to be in the truck with a hurt knee, and I got on the radio and told them to watch out for it) They said it was very huge and stared them down for a minute, before it turned and let them go past. It was a great vacation! To see all the pictures click here.

Lillyana Kathleen Calder!

On Sunday, June 3rd, 2012, Justin gave a name and a blessing to his beautiful daughter Lilly. She was almost 10 weeks old. She is still so tiny and fragile! The doctors say she is doing great. She had a lot of family at the church, and we all came to our house after for Brunch. Her middle name is after her paternal grandmother Kathleen, who'm I am sure she knew in Heaven!
