Nate in Provo

Katie and I went down Monday to help Nate with the last of his stuff - the heavy stuff. I left late and got a few quick caches on the way so it was very hot when we moved the stuff. Afterwards Katie, Nate and I went around to a few caches nearby. I wish we had gone up in the mountians instead where it wasn't 100 degrees. Their house looks nice and clean and the neighborhood seems good. On the way home I grabbed some more for a total of 15 for me that day. It's kind of wierd that Nate and Carrie live in Utah now. Unfortunately it's still 84 miles away for us to drive wether we go through Salt Lake or Heber.

SWIMMING AT THE TOLL'S

Katrina, Kjirsten, and Tori floating in the pond. Unfortunately, this was the only picture we took (with Tori's camera). We do have videos of riding the goats, I'll see if I can figure out how to put those on here. We'd love to get a copy of the family blessing picture.

TORI IN CALIFORNIA

Tori and Grandma in Monterey. Tori had a FABULOUS time on her vacation! We'll get all the pictures on Kodak gallery soon.

Nate, Carrie and Simon's new home in Orem

More "Then & Now"

Here are some more, who has more of these with the spooky candle effects, so far it looks like an Andy thing that runs in his genes, some kind of aura, you know like midoclorians, the Force.

Then & Now

Here are some "Then & Now" pictures I thought were fun from the copper mines.

No pictures for the Blob

No pictures unless Katie wants to post some but she and I had a nice time hiking around in the Uintas yesterday. We found a few geocaches and placed one at Hoover Lake. We got hailed on while looking for a cache at Bald Mountain Pass, the highest paved road in Utah.

Cousins hiking up to Twin Lakes

Here we are taking a rest stop while the grown-ups look for a geocache.

Hike at Sunset

Here's a picture of Mark on top of the world.

What happened?

No one ever writes anything on here. I thought I'd put this picture up of Jocob throwing rocks off the top of Guardsman Pass (I caught it a little too late) but I was suprised to see I was the last person to write anything before that.

Big Bear and Lou

I just wanted to put this picture on here of Lou and Big Bear because I thought it was cute. She likes to lay on him and take naps there. I don' t even know where Big Bear came from, does anyone know? Does Nate know where Georgie, Chip-Chop, and Thumper came from?

Dockers free flight

So I've got my clothes picked out - is everyone going to get the free flight and go to Orlando or something this winter? Boston in the fall?

Happy Birthday Katie....

Let's pretend we had a party at the new Nut Tree playground.

Happy Mother's Day to the Original Shell!

Happy Mother's Day from one Shell to another.
(as in "you all came from the same shell" ~ Dad)
Love Jailynn and all my little "pearls", the grandkids.
PS Here are the links to all the NEW little pearls so we can see them while they are still up on the hospital web sites, I found Simons too!

Simon

Samantha

Joshua

Here's a couple vacation pictures but none of Holland

All the Holland pictures are still in the camera but I got this one of Paris off my phone. We took this standing on the balcony of our hotel room. We couldn't see this view from inside the room, those cost too much. The other one is at Giverny, just over the border into Normandy. You can see Monet's house in the background. It was my favorite place to go on the whole trip. The wisteria was blooming on his japanese bridge, but I didn't get a picture of that on my phone, just this one with a little bit of my finger in the corner for a bonus.

We're ready to see some pictures of Holland!

What do we do on Nate's Birthday?

We hang out at the hospital and play Bocce ball out on the lawn.

(Samantha and Jacob hanging out)
Happy Birthday Nathan, It's the best day of the year (and your birthday is today)!

The baby white car meets its end

Here's what I did on Wednesday

I went up to see Joshua this weekend. He is so tiny. It was fun to watch dad try and avoid the cats and keep them off his pillow. We got him with this one though. He acts pretty much the same as when you try to touch his nose, but he couldn't get out of the hammock fast enough.

Dad and Tori

Happy Birthday to Tori: Now a TEENAGER!!!!

She needs to post a Teenager Tori picture for us.

Dad is now 6 decades older than Katrina 6 & 66

I did give him the ultimate Grandpa Jay gift - something that he would HAVE to have sometime: A TREASURE HUNTER -- metal detector. Perfect for beachcombing for those hidden treasures.
