Scenes from Jenny Lake

Just thought I would practice putting some pictures out here just for you Barb. giggle giggle.

This is Jenny Lake and Colter Bay Marina. I won't be spending much time with you all, b/c Huckleberries should be ripe for the bears and me. I'm willing to fight for them. Anyone wanting to go picking with me is welcome as long as you put the same amount in the bucket as you put in the mouth.

Sorry Mom, I'm not saving very many for you ever since you said they tasted like Blueberries. A sin. A down right sin. (Grin, wink wink)

See you all in August.

Happy Birthday Pappa!

42 on the 24 th Look at those numbers. Must mean good luck.

The lastest from Eric's family

Brock and Marc just finished the Jr. High Championships. They both did really well. Brock is currently the Shelley record holder for the 100 yard backstroke.
He placed 9th in 100 yard backstroke for the region.
He placed 9th again in the 50 yard freestyle.
His relay team took first in the 200 yard Medley Relay.
And last but not least he placed 14th in the 100 yard freestyle.

Marc took third place in the 200 yard Freestyle Relay.
He placed 11th in the 100 Yard Backstroke.
11th place again in the 50 yard freestyle
And last but not least 13th place in the100 Yard Freestyle.

They both ejoyed swimming but the highlight of the year was the hummer-limo ride after the end of the season (provided by one of the team members parents).

Every night mom goes to bed while Kjerstin takes the little ones and reads to them. She can get them to do anything. If they don't brush their teeth fast enough, she takes away a book. Annika moves quickly when books are being bargained. Ericson usually lasts about three pages and is off to yell for Bok or Mok or Pappa (which is either Pappa or Packer depending on his mood).




Packer is into scouting. He is working on his wolf. Mom is the den leader so he gets to have friends over every Wednesday. Hopefully we will be learning to tie more knots. He is working on a Volcano for Pack meeting this next month. Dry Ice is so much fun.







Kjerstin had the opportunity to play Elphiba from "Wicked". Doesn't she look fantastic. She sang the song "What is this feeling" with her friend Breir At the Virginia Theatre here in Shelley. We weren't sure she would turn back to normal, but surprisingly the next day she was only tinged with green. Green food coloring - yup its true.

Sorry if this is mispelled or poorly written. Ericson is screaming and I'm not relenting.

Happy Birthday Eric. 42 on the 24th. Look at those numbers. Cool aih?
