Big Fish Story

While I was in Hawaii, Wkay was having two adventures on his own. The first adventure was in Rock Springs, Wyo. After dropping me off at the airport, Grandpa went to Ryker's birthday party and also went Ice fishing with Chris (our son) and Terrance (our grandson).
The second adventure, was an ice fishing trip to Blue Mesa Reservoir near Gunnison, Co. Wkay went with Jesse (our son) and his friend Drew. The highlight of the trip, other than surviving temps ranging from -9 to 24 degrees, was when Drew caught the big one. A Brown Trout that weighed 7.5 pounds and was 26 inches long. What a catch!!!

Hawaii 2009

I flew to Sacremento on Friday the the 13th to Becky's house and had a very nice visit with her family. Then on Sunday I met up with my sister (Linda) to fly from San Fransico to Hawaii. We spent 7 days in Hawaii on the island of Kauai with Tina and her family. It was very nice to visit with Tina, Danny and the girls. We had a wonderful time. It is so pretty there and the warm weather was so nice after being in the cold Utah winter weather. We went to the Botanical Gardens, Spouting Horn, Waimea Canyon, watching the migrating whales and flew to the Big Island-- Hawaii -- to see the volcanos. That was so amazing.

Fun In The Snow !!!

The week of Christmas was a very snowy week. After rounding up some snowpants, boots and gloves we headed off to enjoy the snow. We had great fun making snow angels, snowballs, trying to make a snowman in the too dry snow & being pulled on a sled behind the four wheeler. Which was Izzy's favorite.

Christmas of 2008

This year for the week of Christmas we got to enjoy our two grandchildren (Steel & Izzy) along with their mother Laurie and Uncle Jesse. It was a very fun week and also a very snowy one.
Here is Izzy showing off her new sleeping bag. Which unbeknown to her she helped pick out.
