Off to California

Jan and Amber left for California to visit Aunt Sue. Two weeks of fun in the sun. They are headed to Universal Studios and then off to Santa Barbara to visit Aunt Connie. They will end their vacation with a huge family reunion at Uncles Ed's.

Graduation

Both Amber and Joey graduated this year from their schools. I cannot believe how fast time flies. They were both babies yesterday and here they are heading off on new adventures. Amber's school had a graduation dance that evening as well. Her and her friends looked so grown up. I cannot believe they are headed for High School. The kids are very excited about the fun filled summer we have planned. We plan on doing a lot of camping and good old fashioned family fun. This will be the last summer we are a family of four so we are going to try do get in as much excitement as possible. haha

The Great Outdoors!!

Is it the Dog's bed or ours? He thinks he is the king of the camper!!!!
What is up with that tongue action? Give him an award for the largest dog tongue. YUCK!!!!

TOOOO cold for Mark.
Teddy and I are staying warm.

We spent the weekend camping up in the mountains with Mark's command. There were about 10 families in all and believe it or not the dogs out numbered the people. It was so much fun. Very relaxing. It was the first time we have "dry camped". Although since we had the generator we really still had all the comforts of home. Mark and the kids went swimming in the "cold" lake, we enjoyed the bon fire, we went for a very fast ride on a ski boat and had a bear come through our camp. All in all it was a huge success.
