At the last minute we decided to go to Oregon for the holiday. We were able to see Steve's great Aunt Marie who is not doing very well since she broke her hip. She is in her 90's and they don't think she will last very much longer so we decided to go and see her. We also got to visit with Grandma Green (Steve's Grandma), Steve's brother Don and their family, his brother Mike and his family, Steve's mom and dad and my dad. It was a great visit and we even ended up with a new family member. My nephews found an abandon kitten at Grandma Greens house and so Grace begged and pleaded her Daddy (he really can't say no to his daughters) and we have a new kitten that came home with us. For the first 2 hours of the trip she cried and cried and clawed and clawed but then she settled down and bonded with Grace for the next 8. THANK GOODNESS! We were all about to go nuts! Derek calls her Jimmer but I think her name will be Bella (that's what the rest of us call her). She follows me around everywhere crying unless I hold her ......... When is summer vacation????

| Yep- His own version of the Bio -dome. Actually I think it is more of a Hyro-dome. My favorite was when he went to turn it on to show how it worked and told everyone to stand back because he wasn't sure what was going to happen! HAHAHA I love my dad! |

Grace looks like an olympian! Wow! Very impressive. Uncle Derek votes for Jimmer. Let's go to Alaska for vacation! Disney Cruise, anyone?
I want to go to the Olympics and watch Grace! And I really would love to go visit Savannah when she goes to Italy to study;0) I am so very glad we will see everyone in a few months at Lauren's Wedding!
