Had a very good visit with friends, the Mayhew family, in Durango, CO.
Halla, Sage and Allegra on the horse ranch.

Lillie, Anita's dog, at school. It was fun to watch the dogs go through these courses.

Somewhere in ID.

Ended up going through the Sawtooth mountians. Very beautiful.

The ORIGINAL starbuck

Polouse falls

We just set foot in NM

no comment ;->

At four corners, where four states meet. What a total tourist trap! We had to stand in line.

I told Halla not to ever say we didn't take her to the mall...

The arches were awesome

Hiking outside Bryce canyon

Ely, NV

Bryce Canyon

The girls and I hiked down to the bottom of Bryce. They did real good for such steep grades.

Frisco mining town in NV

We saw alot of wild mustangs!

Yosemite, way too crowded here.

Surprise Valley, CA. The town that time hasn't touched.

Mom & Sage

We all went fishing. I ended up casting Sage's pole in the lake so had to give her mine. As usual, Sage caught the biggest fish of the day. So hard to get a serious picture...

Sage, Joey and Halla did "makeovers"

Sage at the park

Late spring storm

Rainbow over Scott's grave. His headstone has been ordered and we can't wait to have it in place. It seems like closure. It will be beautiful.

Getting things in order. Driveway's all fixed! We are going to start on a rail fence to help keep the drifting down in the winter.

Living in our own little piece of heaven. This is what Scott brought us to ;-) We are healing and it is certianly a journey. I think we have learned so much about ourselves, our strengths and weaknesses through out the last 6 months. I think of him all the time but I am more often able to laugh and smile with the good memories and not feel sad all the time. He is definately here and in our hearts and that helps us all to start thinking of being strong and the future.

Scott's finished cabinets...turned out beautiful!
The TV side was truly Scott's vision. Only he could visualize in his head how it would work. I didn't see it but followed through with his ideas and it turned out perfect. It really opens up the room and makes it feel complete and comfortable.

Kitchen side, my favorite!

We planted a wild rose on Scott's grave, we'll see if it makes it.

Halla picking flowers for daddy.

Easter

Halla's 14th birthday

Sage wanted a hair cut like her sis's Kate. We've since cut it shorter and she loves it.

Visited Scott's grave and had a good old snow ball fight. I'm sure he was in on the action.

Saga, Grace and Sage playing in Sage's room.

Kate, Saga and Sage in the back of ol' blue.

February 2009

Kate and Saga cam for a visit. Riding duffy.

Halla and Sage on duffy.

All of Scott's children, and grandchildren together. I know he would've loved this day!

Valentines day!
