I promised that I would start a blog for the "fam", since I can't seem to do a newsletter anymore and I don't EVER get around to Christmas cards!! So, I decided to jump right in and give you a short pictoral look at our family now and our summer activities... After my birthday in June (the picture with me in the boa), and 4th of July in Maine, (where I sang backup for a Rod Stewart impersonator)....we attended two family reunions, and drove about 6500 miles---driving in our "Little Blue Ice"---the Matrix. This after getting to the car rental place to pick up our van----two hours before we were supposed to leave and finding out that they wouldn't let us take it out of the state! Note to all: READ THE SO-CALLED FINE PRINT!

We hung with Bret's family in Kansas and then on to Utah, then on to Montana with my family and back home again... Fun times were had by and with all!!....and I FROZE in Montana...
