Family Bday dinner

Sheradias menu included broiled parmasian talapia, rice, and biscuts with lemon and coconut cake.

We didn't find gold in 'dem hills

Zephy played in the clay while the rest of us searched for our gold!

For Sheradia't Birthday she wanted to have a picnic and go pan for gold. So off we went with our fried chicken and brownies until the misquitoes got to us. Then we jumped into the van and tried our luck at gold. But no matter how hard we looked we just didn't see it.

Seeing Scooter in Whitefish

We surprised Scott in Whitefish this last week. After dinner at Huhot we went for a walk in the park. Zephy had a blast chasing ducks, watching squirls, and climbing trees.

Mothers Day part 2

The girls gave me homemade gifts of coupons and cards as well as african baskets. After a wonderful breakfast a nap was in order.

Mothers Day Part 1

While I went to town to get our coffee the girls cooked breakfast for us. When I got there I had bought flowers as well as picked from the garden and breakfast layed out all ready.

Scott's train

I was trying to take a photo of his train leaving the yard. Wish you could see him in the cab!

Havre Yard

Looking at the yard from the viaduct in both directions.

Visiting Scooter in Whitefish

BNSF puts Scott up in the same motel every time so if he comes in at decent hour we have gone over to visit or stay with him. I had to capture this moment of him telling the girls a bedtime story before we turned out the lights. And of the girls saying goodbye as we dropped him off at the depot for his train back to Havre in the morning.

More Easter

Papa found a nice new hat at the city Easter egg hunt. Zephy ate way too much food and candy as did the rest of us! And Sheradia had the honor of making this years Easter Cake. It was Yummy!

Finding Eggs

Easter morning we went over to nana and papas to find the hard boiled eggs then outside to see if they could find any left over from the night before. We had a great brunch together and I stayed home to finish cooking the big dinner while nana and papa took the girls and another friend to the town egg hunt.

A sister moment

Zephy giving her sister a back rub as she falls asleap! So sweet! Wish they got on this good all the time!!!!

Easter Eve

The girls wanted to do a midnight Easter egg hunt like we use to do with the youth group so with their plastic eggs filled with candy and change they found most of the eggs but had to go back out that night again to find more. They finaly found the last ones the next day.
