Been real busy lately.  Wanted to come let everyone know I'm doing okay!  Went to see my sister and mom in Idaho twice over the summer.  Once in July and once in August.  We also spent the 4th of July at the Grand Coulee Dam.  They were spilling the dam the whole weekend.  Which doesn't happen all the time.  Water spilled is not used to make electricity.  They were doing it because we got more rain than they expected.  So they spill the dam to prevent flooding.  They do a laser light show at night on the face of the dam.  And on the 4th they light fireworks off the top!  I got some video in the daytime of the dam.  And I got some good pics of the fireworks!  I got sucked into all those games on facebook by my sisters and cousins!  lol

I became an aunt again in May.  I'll have to post some pics later.  My sister, Kelli had a son she named Anthony Christian.  Middle name is after me.  For my first name.    :yahoo;

Kelli, also has a 13 yr old daughter named Kaya (Ky-ya).  Kari (Carrie), who is older than Kelli, has a 10 yr old son named, Kincaid and a 4 yr old daughter named Alayna.  And Karla has a 2 yr old daughter named, Samantha.  I am the eldest in my family.  All girls.  Kincaid was the first boy in my family!  lol
