Fish Tales

August 5, 2008 by Elaine

My Dad and Tim went fishing extremely early Friday morning while we were at the ocean. Since I stayed up every night until 1 am talking to my bro and my SIL, I was only asleep for a few hours when they got up to leave. God bless the boys for “sleeping in” a little…

Summer Vacation Carnival!

June 16, 2008 by Elaine

The summer vacation was pretty much a given in my family while I was growing up. Every year Daddy would take a week or so off from work and we would drive somewhere, whether it be Colorado, California or even the Texas coast. My parents would load up the truck and camper with all the…

Summer Vacation Extravaganza!

June 16, 2008 by Elaine

Okay, so last week I got to thinking about summer vacations (especially after mentioning them in my Father’s Day post) and decided that I had a few good pictures and stories to share about the MANY vacations that we took as family when I was growing up. And, well, I figured a lot of you…
