Back Tracking to Pioneer Days

In July, we celebrated Pioneer Days with the Ashland Ward
at Roger Tackett's camp site.  Can I just say, he has quite a set up
here.  My kids had so much fun.


This is why I had to share this post.  Little Larry
sat by the river for hours and was the only person
to catch anything.  And this was his absolute first try at
fishing.  Can you see the joy in his smile?




Here is Ethan giving it a try.
Next to Larry, he was my only other kid
to be patient with fishing.
All the others threw their line in
and if it was not instantaneous, then they would
walk away.



This is actually Larry's first catch.
The other was his second catch which was by accident.
His line had gotten tangled up in the rope.  While
trying to untangle it, his bait was in the water and he caught
a fish.  He and I both laughed and laughed.
Wish they could all be that easy.



Ethan gave it a go all over the riverside.








I wish I could say he caught one, but he did not.
He sure did have fun trying though.


Here is my big kid.


Ruby is giving him a push.





I hope everyone had a wonderful Pioneer Day!

Looks like so much fun! (I kept expecting a pic of my brother making a splash in the river--glad he swung back to the pier safely!)

12 Wonderful Years

Saturday was mine and Larry's 12 year anniversary.  We enjoyed an absolute wonderful weekend together.  Larry was able to get off work friday at a decent time and did not have to go in on saturday.  And on Sunday, he did not have the early morning church meetings, so we were able to drive together.  As a matter of fact, we were able to enjoy a beautiful Christmas cantata on a gorgeous Sabbath morning. Friday evening we enjoyed  Don't ask me how I talked Larry Denzil into this, but I did and I enjoyed every minute of it. This was such a happy, girlie movie and I truly did enjoy every moment of it.  I love musicals and especially love music of the 70's.  I could remember so many of the songs as if they were new.  Listening to them in my dad's '73 camaro as he picked me up from the day care. Wow, how time flies. On saturday, I enjoyed breakfast that Larry prepared with the kids.  It was so nice to not have to cook.  Notice I did not say clean.  He did leave the mess fo...
