Look...no spills!!!!

Kelby took this picture of Grandpa because she couldn't believe that he ate his entire dinner without spilling on his shirt. This picture is proof that he really can do it!

Gingerbread Heaven

2007-11-28T16:09:00.000-08:00

This is a picture I took last year of making all the gingerbread people for everyone in the family. I want you to take a good, long look at the picture because it will be the only gingerbread anyone gets this year. Too bad the computer doesn't have scratch-n-sniff to enhance your gingerbread experience. Have a Merry Christmas!

Happy Thanksgiving

2007-11-22T17:32:00.000-08:00

We had a wonderful Thanksgiving. Christy's family including in-laws came and all the Mickelsens. We had a yummy dinner and then the annual Christmas light display. Here is a video of the event.

Hi. This is KK here at Mom and Dad's house and I have decided to update their blog. I am sure all of you are tired of the same post - I know I am! Kevin...you're next so don't get too comfortable! And Kerry you won't be too far after Kevin.
Mom and Dad are off "The Mountain". The mission was a success and now they are back in retirement mode. Retirement mode = babysitting grandkids and traveling. They got a new calling in the ward teaching Temple Prep classes. They have also been asked to help give tours at the new Twin Falls Temple Open House sometime in April. I am sure once the temple gets built they will be working there frequently. Dad is the stake Ham Radio dude. Mom still spends countless hours in extraction work.
The house is decked out for Halloween as usual. The grandkids all enjoy playing games in the graveyard. Weird if you ask me, but they love it.
Dad works out in the garage quite a bit. He is making M&M dispensers to sell online. Pretty cool. Mom gets roped into painting them. Dad has been driving potato truck for the harvest. He drives every day for about 5-8 hours. Today is his last day.
Mom cooks for all the kids when we come. She makes chilli and scones, and delicious potato soup. I think I gain 15 pounds each meal. Tomorrow she is going to make homemade French fries with all the potatoes from dads truck. I can't wait :)
Well...I guess we had better add some pictures to the update.

Great Day at Cassia County Fair

I'm still working on this blog thing. Couldn't get it to do what I wanted but here are some of the pictures of the girls and their animals. Great Day at the Fair

I Wanna Go Too!!!

We are home from the mountain today. Went to church, had dinner, Kevin and Wendy came over. Day is almost over. Then we will be back on the mountain in the morning. It has been fun reading all the blogs. Today is my day to write to Elder Mackenzie. Kerry's family and Kevin's family all have 4-H animals to put in the fair tomorrow. They will have a busy week. Hope to get to the fair on Sat. to see them all sell their pets. Have a good week everyone. We love you.

WONDERFUL SURPRISE BLESSING

2007-08-07T09:48:00.000-07:00

Well here is the explanation of the pictures now. I'm illiterate. So now I will explain what took place. We had a p-day and all the Mickelsen's, Kevin & Wendy and family, Zane & Alice Mitton and family, came to our rescue and pulled weeds. It was planned by Linda and Larry and they called the family and ask for help. How fun is that? What a surprise. I guess it was planned that we wouldn't be here and they were going to surprise us. But it turned out we didn't have to be up on the mountain Monday and so that worked out just great. We had a great home evening and Linda, Nicki, and Wendy came through with cookies and milk to celebrate. Kerry came while were on the lawn. He had a funeral to head up so he couldn't come earlier. Christy & Jeff were at a work Party, boating. Everyone was such great help. It sure will be easier going up on the mountain this week. Thanks to all. We love you.

Shoo Fly! Don't Bother Me!

This is a collection of 5 days worth of flies at our campground. This one eventually filled to the top and we're now working on our 2nd jug. Gross!

Oh What do you do in the summer time?

2007-06-09T15:04:00.000-07:00

Here it is summer in Oakley. Some of the grandkids having their dip in the Oakley Pool. Craig' and Kerry's families missing. Fun was had by all.

Mom was asked to paint scenery for Oklahoma. She "'Cain't say No". She and Janet Burch had a painting marathon and got it done in about 5 hours. Here is the finished backdrop.

Dad's Mission

This is Dad's idea of scripture study. What a missionary huh?

Leaving to the missioin field

2007-05-28T09:29:00.000-07:00

Today we are getting ready to go to the ranch. We had problems with the motor home. Dad is on his way to Burley to get a new battery. Kevin and Wendy's family and the Mickelsen's will meet us up there for a hot dog roast for lunch. Christy and Kerry were busy with other things, Craig is too far away, and KK is prego.

This picture on the right is an old one, looking over the damage, the picture on the left is what is looks like now. We will post new pictures when we get up there and get back. We love you all.
