It is time to go get Emersyn from camp. She has been gone for two weeks and we all miss her…probably more than she misses us. Skylake Camp is located about 45 minutes outside of Yosemite National Park. We haven’t been to Yosemite since Emersyn was 18 months old when we went for a […]

With Emersyn off to camp for two weeks, Elle was an only child for the first time. After we dropped Emmy off, we did our Sunday routine of the Farmers Market, lunch and the candy store, Powells. Oh, and always a quick stop in the Apple store in town. The “we” during the summer […]

Emersyn is off to her first over-night sleep camp. This camp only offers 2-weeks as a minimum stay. The Greer children, Katy and Margaret, have gone for the past 3 years and love it. Emmy could not go to the same session (D) as Margaret because it was full and we needed to come […]

I decided I would treat Mimi to a performance before it left San Francisco. Terri wanted to join us, but Andy was “Wicked-out”. Terri and Andy have seen the muscial about […]

Another evening trip to the lake with Grandpa. This time Emersyn caught her FIRST fish. She was thrilled as Elle had been the lucky one in the past. Oh, and lucky Elle caught another fish! Of course, Grandpa is the one that takes the fish off the hook […]

Estes Park is a 3.5 hour drive from Mitchell. If Grandpa had his way, he would have us on the road at 5am “to beat the traffic”. Not sure what traffic Grandpa is referring to in Nebraska! We talked him into 7am. After being out late for the 4th of July, 7am was plenty […]

Every 4th of July, we go to my cousin’s home, Russ and Gaylene, for the celebration. We enjoy a meal cooked by Russ who loves to cook. When he cooks, he cooks for an army so it is best to go with a hungry tummy! Every 4th of July, Grandpa makes homemade ice cream. […]

Good thing Grandpa loves garage sales. He always keeps his eye out for bikes and such for the girls. Actually, I am sure it is really Grandma that keeps her eyes open AND makes Grandpa buy it. Grandpa hates the clutter in his clean garage. This year, Emmy was able to ride the bigger […] |
