June 2012

Is it June ????/ or Jun-uary??  The weather hasn’t decided that it’s summer yet…… but I have faith that it will warm up – sooner or later!

We started the month up in the Portland area with our grandkids, Ben and Anna.  They were still in school but so very close to the end of the year!

Ben & Anna’s new dog – Lucky, is growing so fast!

Ben’s baseball team played an outstanding game!

Anna is taking gymnastics lessons – and she loves it! 
Do we have a future Olympian on our hands?

Back in Sunriver, we have some visitors – The Pedersen’s have come to stay for a while.  They were looking for a house – and they found one in Sisters!  Congratulations to Steve & Linda!

Can you see the fish in this beauties mouth?  He landed right behind out lot!

Wildlife galore!  This doe was posing for me!

Another great visit – from John & Bonnie Kearsing.  We really enjoyed having them stay with us for a couple of weeks.  We love seeing our “ORI” friends!!

What a gorgeous morning sky as I flew out to Boulder Colorado for a
“Quilt Retreat” at Paula Lucas’s home.

Although we quilted every day – we also took some time for sightseeing. 
This was snapped at the “Stanley” a historical hotel located in Estes Park.

The quilters with Boulder in the background.

The weather was hot! ….. around 100 degrees most every day.

The Brown Palace Hotel – a landmark in downtown Denver.
So much old world elegance!

While I was in Colorado – Mike was on a camping trip up by Mount Hood with our two sons and two grandsons.  Mike said it was pouring – miserably pouring ….. but the fishing was good!

Marc & Maria took a week to get away and Camryn & Colby came to visit Mike & I.

We had so much fun ….. We went to town, took a few hikes, went to see “Brave” and several other good things!

A terrific month!  Now if the weather would just warm up –
it would be an even better month!
