Thanksgiving















Thanksgivivg came and went very quickly. All except for the extra weight we all put on by eating so much. We were very blessed to have so much great food and great company. We had all ages there from Grandma Gheen who is 96 to Christian who is 1. Grandma didn't use her walker to much but Christian loved pushing it all around and climbing on it. Grandma Gheen ,my folks, Curt, Diane, Stephen ,Laurie & their kids, Kate, Brian & their kids,Shylo,Marcus,Sam ,Heidi ,Kenny and I were all over to the church to celebrate. Twenty three all together. Kim,Danny and the girls were with the Georges and Richard & Jenny in Idaho Falls with Jennies family. We all met at our house on that night and thanks to Jenny we were able to decorate ginger bread houses.




We had a blast visiting and decorating while Sam, Brian, Marcus, Danny & Kenny all played a game of Risk, which Kenny won. Kathy & Bob spent their day looking for a friend of Bobs who got lost while hunting. Thankfully he was found and was ok. Kathy said they will have their T-day on friday. Kylee and Alexis spent t-day night with us so Kim and Danny could go shopping at 4:00 am for all the good Black Friday sales. The girls were really good .

Married for 29 years.....WOW

Well we just celebrated our 29th wedding anniversary. Time has really gone by fast. We went to Jackson Hole Wyoming on Saturday and spent the night at Snow King lodge.






We had fun walking around Jackson and looking at all the expensive things they have to offer. Like fur and leather coats for the rich and famous or art that you couldn't pay me to hang in my house. Granted I would like the chance to walk in to the stores and not look at the price and just buy it because I like it.







Targee has snow but Jackson is running their snow making machines trying to get some snow. We drove outside of Jackson to take some pictures of the Tetons





and saw 18 bull elk all together. They were all 5&6 point bulls.











It was cool to watch them. We also saw some swans.






We stopped at Swan Valley and had one of the famous square Ice Cream cones. It was beautiful weather.

Nov.8th 2008


In talking with my Mom and Dad last night we came up with the idea to go on a cruise in July 2010 to Alaska.We would like Kathy,Bob,Stephen,Laurie,Richard,Jenny,Mom,Dad Kenny and I all to go. I really would like to get this to come true. I hope everyone will start saving so we can go. It would be a great trip with all of us.







There are several in the family with bad fall colds. Tis the season. Kenny put up a TV in the exercise room today, and I did the normal laundry. Kenny also took my car to Idaho Falls to have some warranty work done,I stayed here and had an insulin blood test run along with cholesterol and tyroid.I would like to get off some of this medicine I'm on. We had a beautiful weather day today. Well hope all is well with everyone.

We got family pictures taken of the Hammonds and Georges , I need to get the Olers and Gardners to hold still for some too.







Heidi and Sam spent the weekend moving in to their new house.I'm sure they will enjoy having their own home. Shylo and Marcus spent the weekend with the Oler family for Marcus's Grandma Hebbdon's funereal. Alexis has a ear infection and sinus infection poor little duck. Kate has a bad cold also I guess it is the season. We got some much needed rain last night and today. Added We vote for a next president of the United States this week.
