No Longer a Youngun

Hello Dear Family,
Yes, it is true. I'm no longer the young girl in my 20's. I'm officially an adult. Thankfully I've seen a lot of adults who haven't felt the need to grow up so I don't feel too much pressure to grow up either. I had a wonderful birthday, but it certainly wouldn't have been much without the family that I have. I love you all more than words can tell. Thank you so much. JRich

Spider Love

An Amazing Spider Love Dance....The Sound is half the excitement so if you can't hear it turn up your volume.

There are not any tricks or scary things I swear... Just a fascinating look into spider behavior....Dad would love this so please give him a chance to watch it.

Love,

Cara

Friday is the BIG one

Happy Birthday Jackie. Have a wonderful day. We love you very much.

Happy Anniversary on Thursday

CHRISTINE IS COMING! YAY HOORAY!

OUR BELOVED GIRL IS RETURNING FROM THE OTHER SIDE OF THE WORLD!

Chez Vinson is all abuzz to see her, we are going to go Orca watching if they are still out, or do something fun downtown, or whatever her little heart desires.

Maybe have some Thai food if she gets homesick!

:)

I'm still here

I have not dropped off the face of the earth. I am teaching summer school and I am loving it. Also, Katie and Destinee are here for two weeks keeping me on my toes. Friday night I had five girls for the night. Natalie,Rachel, and Hailey came and joined the two older ones. It was quite a night. Then I had them all day Saturday so Monty and Jackie could go to Sandpoint to help with a new church there. They had a good time and so did we. We will miss the girls when we have to take them home this coming weekend.

Overtime Money Spent

I have been working over time like crazy, and was going to use most of it to promote the photography business for the fall and winter to bring in spring and summer biz.

My refrigerator had other plans. It is dead now, and so instead yesterday I had to buy a new fridge.

Soooooooooooo, here's the new fridge, freezer on the bottom and steel outside. It was the kind that would get here quickest. Until then we are living out of a cooler and I threw 3 huge bags of food away. (I had just gone to costco)

The 787 rollout was awesome, click on the link to my photo website and then click on the link there to see photos of that. IT was neat.

Love,

C

Florida family

Vacation

Hi family I am having a wonderful time in Florida. I can't believe I have only one day left. I should have come sooner. I can't stay longer because I start teaching summer school a week from yesterday. I miss my Spokane kids but I will miss the Florida kids after tomorrow. We just need to get the Florida kids moved back to Washington. :) They keep trying. Mom

Fun Times Ahead

Craig and I are going to stay overnight downtown on the 4th to watch them shoot fireworks off at the Space Needle! I am very excited, we have watched it on TV a million times but didn't go last year for fear of the heinous traffic.

Priceline is the best! $99 for a 4 star room! So, we are going to spend the day, go to the new underwater dome exhibit at the aquarium and just rat around downtown and then hopefully take some fun photos of the show.

Then on the 8th is the big rollout of the plane! Then Craig might quit.... He really does hate it there. Who knew? I am completely for it, Life is just too short to do a job you hate.
