Butler Camping Trip

We had reserved a camping spot in Janurary and found out that we could have eight people there. So we went with friends and Dave and had a wonderful time! Anabel and our friends dog Sophie had probably the best time they have had in a long time. They got dirty and were fed sasauge and other lovely things. We were even visited by some racoons that gave Anabel something to protect us from. 2 adult racoons and 2 babies. They came to eat the dog food that Anabel refused for the good stuff. Dave, Robert and Jake were able to go to the peir to crab and actually caught 3 for us to eat! Alestair and his friend Maddy loved being able to run around and get dirty and play in the water. While Emmett, Tina and I were able to relax and run after Alestair and Maddy. It was the best vacation we have taken in some time and will be going again soon!

Howarth Park

It was one of those blazing hot Sundays and some friends asked if we would like to go to the beach. Thinking it had to be cool there (its near water right?) we went. It was not cool but still blazing hot. Sooo we did not stay long but had a great time! It was very pretty and all three boys (Adam, Emmett, and Alestair) had a good time being outside. Yes I did pack both boys on me down the spirl staircase to get on the beach. Yes it was hard.

Alestair and Mom Time

I bought a pool while in Klamath Falls and set it up for the day while Alestair was sleeping. When he got up and Emmett went down for a nap Alestair and I played in the pool. it was a lot of fun. I love being able to see how much he has learned. He talked a lot about things while we dried off.
Alestair was thanking all of the cars going by with his "Dank Do"

The Wetzel Family 2010

Uncle Dale, Aunt Teresa, Janet Fee (my mom), Aunt Peggy, Uncle Ray. Grandma and Grandpa I am so grateful for family and the plan of salvation. To know that this is a forever deal is wonderful. I would not be able to be so happy if I did not have that knowledge

Going Home

We stopped at Dairy Queen on the way home and got Frozen Hot Chocolates. Grandma Fee was kind enough to share with Alestair.

The Memory Book

Uncle Wetzel came up with this amazing, wonderful idea to have everyone in the family send him pictures and memories so he could compile them into a book from shutterfly.com. It turned out wonderful! He did Grandma and Grandpa's pictures with their kids growing up and then each one of their children has a seperate two pages and then there are a few pages for grandkid memories and then just lots of pictures of the grandkids and greatgrandkids and so on. He even got really awesome and put a family tree on the first two pages. We each had the option of purchasing one ourselves and I got one for my family. I am so glad we have it! I love being able to show my children what their Great Grandparents looked like when they were young.

Lake of the Woods

As Wetzel family reunion go I am pretty sure Lake of the Woods is a must. So we went and conquered them again!
It was very wonderful there. Great Grandma made Emmett sooo happy he slept on her lap for 2.5hrs! I was shocked and asked if she would like me to take him but she was very happy too. I think Emmett found his favorite people that weekend. Alestair loved being able to see so much nature and being allowed to touch it all. Grandma Fee and I took him on a hike with us and it was much enjoyed. He walked nearly the whole way. Since he had just gotten up from a nap I suppose that it was good to get the engery out.
