Steve and I just got back from a week and a half of being with his family in Washington. We spend the 4th of July weekend in Richland and then headed for Twin Lakes (4-5 hours away) for a week. It was a special time because Steve's parents just returned from their mission and everyone was there, minus one husband. There are now 15 grand kids from ages 1-13, and 10 adults so things are busy- to say the least when we are all together. The Bonners have been going to Twin Lakes for around 30 years with friends and family. Now with every one's families growing it is getting a little crowded, but we made it work! There was a huge storm on Thursday, which knocked out all the power and water for two days. We were ruffing it! It's good to be home now and clean. I think I've gotten all the laundry done. My mom is coming tonight to help me with the nursery. I'll post pictures of what accomplish next week. Here are some pictures of Washington.
Here is Steve with Chris on the 4th of July. If you look close you can see black on Steve's face. Chris was showing Steve his sparkler a little to closely. Don't worry. His burn is almost healed.

Our family picture for 2008 all in Taiwan shirts. The only one missing is Scott, but we left a place for him. We are hoping to photoshop him in.

Three of the younger boys posing with their cool visors they just made. We were each assigned to do a craft each day. Mine was visors.
