Oregon-California Coast Trip

Jack and I went on a week long motorcycle trip up into Oregon and down the California coastline. It was my maiden voyage on my motorcycle. We went into Oregon as far as Coos Bay and ended in Chico, California.

We went through the "Valley of the Giants" redwoods.

We hiked a little ways in and it was so peaceful and magical, I expected to see some wood nymphs or fairies or some other worldly creature.

We ran into some pretty thick fog on the coast. It was creepy! I just

tried to stay between my lines and followed Jack's taillights.

My new motorcycle

We just got me a new motorcycle. I am really enjoying it and looking forward to our motorcycle trip to the coast in a few weeks. Hopefully my fanny will make it!!!

Swinging with the Gram

We went to the park and had a swinging good time!

Memorial Day

Kaidence helped grandma clean her special friend's graveside! We had a lot a fun until she dumped the bucket of water in her lap, then she was done!!

1st Trip to the Zoo

Nick, Heather and Kaidence took their 1st trip to the zoo. Grandma didn't get to go, but enjoyed looking at the pictures.

From St. George to Salt Lake

After the week in St. George we went up to Salt Lake to see the family. Kaidence is growing up to fast in her gram's eyes. She is starting to put words together instead of just saying "NO"!

Boy do we miss being in Salt Lake.

Annual St. George Trip

We just got back from our annual golf trip to St. George. We took the motorcycles with us and either golfed or road the motorcycles everyday. We had a great time with everyone.

Even Tim was there with Ron (my brother from another mother)!

Nick's Return from Iraq

Good News!!! Nick returned safely from Iraq yesterday. Heather said they had to wait in a big warehouse until the plane reached the tarmac. Once the plane arrived all the families that were waiting, pushed, shoved and elbowed their way to get up front. Heather, Kaidence and Nick's mom Jody waded right in!!! Unfortunately no picture taking was allowed.

WELCOME HOME NICK!!!
