Sunday Stills Challenge: Boats

Fishing boatWe love fishing, but usually do it from the shore. While visiting family in California last fall, we had a blast boat fishing. We didn’t catch anything, but it was still so much fun.

The Three Siblings

These three children have been staying with us (along with their parents) for the last few days. They are hilarious, and you can see their very different personalities in the pictures. One of these days, I will get a picture of E smiling, I don’t care how many times she turns away or sticks out her tongue. It will happen.

Weekly photo challenge: Foreshadowing

Dad MerrillMemorial Day 2012, my husband and I went with his parents to visit the cemeteries and put flowers on family graves. Dad was very tired, and we found this bench where he could rest and enjoy the view. This Memorial Day, we visited his grave and honored him with flowers. We miss you, Dad.

Snowy cabin

Snow cabin Snow cabinMy grandfather built our family cabin in 1954. It’s located in the High Uinta Mountains in the National Forest. It’s a bit isolated (cell phone reception is sketchy at best, and only down the mountain a mile at the highway), but it has electricity and cold running water (indoor plumbing, it’s gonna be big). As a child, my family would spend most of our summer vacation time here.
