Family time....

It was nice for Pres and Nelda to have most of their kids, grandkids, and great-grandkids for lunch on Thursday. As everyone grows up, moves away, gets a job and a family, it is hard to find a time when all can get together. Today it just worked out.




Some of the great grandkids were not as "in" to picture taking as us older folks were.








Getting all the great grandkids to sit semi still, and semi happy after no naps, getting up early, long drives, etc....was a little tricky! I can't seem to get my labels under the right pictures, so look, read, and apply where you think it fits!! ;) On the way home last night we kept hitting pockets of cold temps where the car thermometer would steadily go from 6 degrees above 0 degrees to 6 degrees below 0 degrees. Brrrr....
Just a little P.S....
Pres was an only child, and at one time his parents thought their family line was dying out! We all did our part to see that DIDN'T happen!!!

Just a note...

The mountain pass that we traveled to town yesterday is CLOSED for the winter today. Today's weather report says snowing, blowing, drifted snow, limited visibility. All the mountain tops within our view are hidden in the clouds this morning. They lifted once and there was fresh snow on the top third of the mountain.

Going to town ....

Just thought I would share the beautiful day with you all. We took the scenic drive to town. There was about 12 - 18 " of snow on the edges of the road.

A little visit with Grandpa...

Fischer learned a new word yesterday, Grandma!! He has said Bompa for a long time, but this is new. The color on the movie is not good, but you can hear his new word!!
