Sorry for the repeat of some of the pictures. I don't know how to delete the repeats without starting all over~

July 2016

We had a good summer in Colorado! Everyone came for the 4th..we had a house full. I watched the Chem trails all summer..they seem to really like this area!

June 2016

June was a busy month. I was still reeling from the death of Steve. We took a trip after the funeral in Colorado to CA where Kodi and family met us. It was fun being with Kevin and Helen and the kids, as well as Kodi. We ate lots and shopped lots!

My Mom's D-Day

Well, the month of May is a bad one~ My mom died on this day, and Kodi got married on this day (which didn't last) and My brother died, and Karen's grandson Kreed died! Oh it's also my aunts birthday, but aunt Carol is also dead~ Just need to skip the month of May~ My mother was beautiful~ Miss her everyday still. I'm jealous cause I know that my brother is now with my mom, dad, grandma and all the ones I love. Guess it's just sibling rivalry~ I was just supposed to go before my brother~ Myrle is in Colorado still, planting the garden~ I knew he was in a toot to get it all in the ground. It's still been so cold in Colorado, so I'm not sure what kind of garden we'll have this year. I've been helping Misha make her quiet book. She really got in over her head. Has to make 30 pages~~I think we have 5 so far!! Next week, we head for CA to visit with Kevin, and Kodi and family will come to CA from OR..so it'll be fun to see them again~ I miss my brother...we always talked on mom's D-day~

My Bitty Brother

Yesterday my brother, Steve had a heart attack and died. We are all still in shock! I was always close to him, talked to him almost everyday! Especially since both my parents have passed~ All the kids loved him so much. He teased them all~They got birthday spankings from him, he pulled teeth with the door, chased them with snakes, and just basically loved them all. He was especially fond of my Kodi. Always said she was his favorite~ I have no idea what I will do without him. I was supposed to go first!!!

Meryn

Little Miss Meryn~ and of course the boys...Cole, Dane and Trevor! We get to take a little trip over Memorial Day to see Kodi and her group, as well as Kevin, Helen, Nolan & Anabeth! I think Misha and the kids are going with us..So I'll have 3 of my kids all together~ Love it when this can happen! Looking forward to seeing everyone~ Today is Cole's birthday! He's 7 years old. He wants to go to McDonald's for his birthday! Crazy kid..but he never gets to go, so I guess this will work~ ha!

Trenton's trip to San Francisco

Trenton was able to go on a trip to San Francisco with his orchestra group from school. He plays the cello, and is very good. He had a ball on his trip. This is really the first time he's been able to go to something like this. They stayed in a very nice hotel, got to eat out, and go to different areas and perform. He decided he liked the city~ Now wants to move away from Klamath Falls, which is a really good idea~

My Dad's birthday!

May 5th is my Dad's birthday~ Still miss him everyday! I find it sad that no one else (my kids) even remember his birthday or death day! It's almost like they never even knew him. Guess it will be that way someday when I pass too. I really do have so many fond memories of him~
