Stacy and I took David Jr., Michelle, Olivia, Gabby, & Grace to see this movie tonight. Sandy has free movies in the park every Saturday night in August. It was very cute. We took our dinner to the park and the ate then the kids got to go play for about an hour. There was a lot of people there tonight. Loads of FUN!

I found a pic of Grace and I on the kayak. She and I took off and paddled out to the middle of the lake. Funny to be with my girl.

COUSIN'S FLOAT 2006


Again this year we camped at Lake Selmac in Selma, Oregon.

Dave, Michelle, Grace, and I arrived on Thursday to have an extra day.
When we got everything setup we found out there was no water. The motor had gone out in the well. They did get it fixed on Friday. Thank goodness.

Caroline and Kira showed up Friday in the early afternoon, so we all went down to the lake and played in the water.

What a beautiful day.

Caroline and Kira enjoying their books.


Michelle ready for her turn on the kayak.


Grace is trying her hand at kayaking. She did pretty good for the first time.


Saturday we ventured out to the Illinois River Valley.

Doesn't it just make you want to jump in?

What a breath taking sight.

A DAY AT DODGE
Sunday July 10, 2006
The kids and I were bored sitting at home so I decided to go spend the day
at the Sandy River. We had planned to leave at 10am but it took us
forever to get ready (I had most everything done the night before too).
I thought we would be late and not get our favorite spot. Well as it turned out
we were the only ones there until 2pm. It was such a glorious day.
The kids had a lot of fun jumping off the rope swing, floating down the rapids,
and swimming with friends.

July 2, 2006
Ollala Lake, Toledo, Oregon


The Hamilton family went to the Lake for the day.

We had one boat, four float tubes, and one kayak.

The guys caught about 20 rainbow trout and boy were they delicious.


It was a perfect day. What a great view.


Dave is getting a little help with his fly fishing pole from Uncle Ernie.


I snuck in a picture of my PAPA.


Here's our Grace (from behind). She was having a good time swimming in the lake,

and wearing grandpa's hat.


We went back to my parents house for a big spaghetti dinner (yummy!). While we were their Reese Robert got to try on his tuxedo for the weddings. He was soooo cute. He gave us all the double thumbs up sign and said "Fancy Man." He is such a cutie.


I finally got to see and hold our new little man "Carsten Edward." What a beautiful baby, of course, I am just a little biased.
