Tuffy on the Peyette

Wow! Tuff is the one in front on the Payette in Idaho on independance day. I'm always a little relieved when they come home alive!

My dad and mom

This is my Papa when he was in the navy. He was about 17 years old and one tough cookie! Dad 's ship was sunk somewhere off Pearl Harbor and lucky for me and my brothers, he was one of the survivors. My papa is brave, a super hard worker, and a real softy when it comes to any of his kids or grand kids. And did I mention he can fix ANYTHING?

The cute girl is my mom. An amazing cook, and my biggest supporter. I feel so lucky to have such an awesome mom and dad.

Dad's not been feeling too great lately, so I hope he gets a chance to see this post so he'll know how much I love him... Here's to you Papa! The cutest guy in the Navy I'm sure. Get better soon!

Darth Gus

If you look really close you can see him smiling under there.

Gus in the cool helmet

We love you Gus! We'll have lots of fun when you come down again....that pool was awesome!

Biker Gus and Papa

They went for a little ride, Papa said they'd be down at the Gateway throwing back a couple cold ones. Turns out the park was pretty hot and they had to hit 7-11 for a gatorade. Gus didn't want to take off the gear...in fact he came back wearing the "cool" helmet. Guess we need to get one his size.

Gus said "Everyone should have a motorcycle Papa, they are fun!"

I think it's in his blood.

Our other bike

Or the "scooter" as Kevin calls it. I have to admit he's a pretty hot papa on the fat boy!

Me and Soph

Sophies new bike, at Jaz Chromolly...and her short mother. I'm so happy that Sophie and Mark and even Gus like to ride bikes with us. We about ruined her as a kid...."just a few more miles.." ! And now they like to go with us.

Even Matt and Spence came down and did a ride with on the Flume. Go0d times!

Tuffy and Maya

What a cute couple!

Gussy with his two greats!!

GQ Gus!

Yeah, he is one cool little dude in a tux.

The real Penny

ok, ok, so SHE doesn't always look like that.

Our sweet Barbara! We get to claim her now.

Special sisters

Me and my bff! We went to "special" school together! She is one buff mama and my goal is always to be as cool as she is!

Just before the "I do's" or was it after???? I lose track.

Tuffy keeps em laughing

Yep, my Tuffy always has a good story to tell. What did you tell grandma Tuff?

awwww! I love my boys! They make me feel short though...but so does my girl! In fact pretty much everyone in the world makes me feel short
