Bass Lake 2009

4th of july at Bass Lake 2009. Another great year with family and friends.

Lazy Days!!
Our American Girl!!!

Thank goodness she had her jacket on. She fell in feeding those hungry ducks!!

Chad and Monique came for a day and played. Chad with Ethan and Colin. No picture of monique..sorry about that. Not to sure how she feels being photographed at 7 months p.g. looking forward to a bundle of girl joy in Sept.

Lilly bug with her Daddy and Momma

Roni, Dustin, Dylan and Sheryl... Good times with family, thats what it's all about!!

Dallas Landon and Parker (I think Landon still thinks he is in Hawaii)!

Riley feeding the ducks

Colin and Cambria feeding the ducks that came to visit quite often

There's just something about the sun, juicy gossip magazines and the water that go together!!!



















Dallas and Parker on the dock......aren't they soo goofy

There was plenty of time on the lake for tubing and just floating in the water

Colin and Cambria were so excited to begin their fishing adventure...Grandpa/Daddy bought them new poles (spiderman and Barbie). They gave it a try and although they weren't sussesful this year they are sure they will catch one next year.

This is the view from our cabin balcony. We love to just sit and watch the boats and relax

This year we sat on the shore to watch the fireworks, it was really fun. This is just a few of them waiting for those fireworks to start!

End of the Grammar School for Riley!!

Changes are coming for us....Riley will be leaving grammar school and headed to the dreaded middle school. Riley was blessed with the most amazing teacher. He had her for 5th and 6th grades. Riley absolutely adored her and she loved him as well. She had a special place in her heart for him and she took great care of him during some of his trials over the last 2 years with older siblings not so wise choices and Logan's accident. She was a great Listening ear and a shoulder to cry on when needed. It is hard for a mom to be everywhere that they are needed and I'm so thankful for her compassion toward Riley and extra tender care when needed. The most important thing is her encouragement to him to keep striving to be his very best academically and athletically. He was awarded the highest award you can achieve for the school the Block R award and honor roll. This is him with his award and his teacher Mrs. Brocklebank. Way to go Riley!!!
