PARTYING AT THE PATTENS'

With summer in full swing, we have spent a lot of time with family and friends. We always enjoy hanging out with the Patten family.

Camping with the Webb family!

We went camping with the Webb family for the Memorial Day weekend! We had a great time, even though it was cold and rained most of the time. Doug always says that great food and great company make a great vacation! So there you have it, it was a great vacation! Thanks, Chuck and Melodie for everything!

Southern California Trip-Take One

We just returned home from a week in Anaheim. This is the first of two trips that we will be taking to Anaheim this month. Doug had a conference in the Paradise Pier Hotel across from Disneyland. We went along to keep him company. NO! We did not do Disneyland. As you know from reading earlier postings, we went to Disney in March, and I have filled my Disney quota for the year (or lifetime). We did do Downtown Disney one afternoon, just because! We also sat in the plaza and watched the fireworks.

We also went to the Science Discovery Museum in Santa Ana and Huntington Beach.

Daniel's favorite part of the trip was the Lego store and the breakfast buffet. Amanda's favorite part was the beach. Stephanie loved the Tom and Jerry cartoons that she watched each morning in the hotel and swimming in the pool.

It was a great trip, but we are all happy to be home. We will be returning in two weeks for a family reunion!

Double-digit Dan

This is Daniel's 10 year-old picture! He looks more grown up each day!

SAY CHEESE!!!

It is hard to believe that a whole year has gone by since the last time that I posted Stephanie's birthday pictures. Where has the time gone?
