Randoms from my cell phone

I seem to take most of my pictures with my cell phone.... unfortunately not great quality. After purchasing a chip for my phone, it officially has 2X the memory capacity of our computer! Thankfully, it holds a lot of pictures now :) I have really had a run of bad luck with phones lately... this is my third try with this model and still not happy with the software! -and the fact that I have lost my pictures every time I have had to switch phones.... Thank you Skott for the memory chip and hardware (no more lost pics)! but enough ranting.... Enjoy!

I LOVE this shirt Justine designed! And she is going to kill me for putting a picture of her IN CROCS online :) yes, we were that bored waiting for our connecting flight at the airport.

Josie has the coolest cat ever (and I am not a cat person). His name is Gus. He has a really fuzzy lions mane and the hugest tail I have EVER seen!

I have made it quite a few posts now without having any of the dogs :) but I had to put this one up. I was at the table doing homework while the dogs were running around like crazy. After awhile I realized it had gotten pretty quiet.... I looked around and found Fucie "hiding" under one of the chairs. It must be a pretty good spot because Izzy couldn't find him.

First day of Wisconsin spring

The first official day of Spring and this is what we saw out the back door last night and this morning!

We did manage to get in a few holes of disk golf before the snow started:

You know you're in Wisconsin when....

Cheese Curds are served on burgers!

and for an appetizer..... More Cheese Curds!

Families are Eternal

I got the privilege of going to Boise, Idaho last weekend, visiting my twins nieces, and witnessing the amazing strength and faith of Heidi and Ryan! In tough times like these, it is a measure of comfort to know that families are forever!

Here are a few random pics. I like how my eyes got heavier as the sleep got progressively less as the days passed :)

Day three: no sleep and getting sillier!

Ellie and I. Aunt Linette and I. Skott's "Pop", "Mom", and Aunt Joyce drove from Glenns Ferry to see me

Barry met us at the Seattle Airport during our layover.

I loved seeing everyone and miss you all already. All of us sisters are still compiling our pics onto one disk so I am waiting for more and will post later.

For Heidi and Ryan

I was privileged enough to spend last weekend with Heidi, Ryan, Ayla, and angel-Zoey along with lots of other family. Yesterday (and the day before) they got to hold precious Ayla!
