We went to Island Park for the holidays. My sister and her family, my three brothers and their families, my dad, and most of our family was there (everyone except Sam and his family). We had so much fun. The cute blond in the yellow pants (Stephanie) is marrying my nephew Brandon (right behind her) in February. Schuyler is also on the couch--married to my niece Heather with her arm on his leg, and Shaylee is in the right bottom corner.
Dad had to wait until after Christmas to open his present from all of us. It is a photo frame with about 200 pictures loaded in it. There is room for a few hundred more. He will never forget us. He can also see the world without leaving his house. There are pictures of his children and grandchildren all over the world. Spain, Italy and Ireland are some of the places I remember as we put it together for him.
This is my baby holding another of my babies--Kelsie and Sandy.
Kelsie is such a great aunt. She loves her little nieces and nephew. This is Lexie she is holding.
Molly and James. They both got sick while we were there. I don't know if Molly got something on the plane and carried it to Roosevelt while they were visiting James family, or if she got it there. She was up sick the first night at the cabin and found out later that people in Roosevelt were sick after she left. One of my brothers was sick before we got to Island Park, and his daughter stayed home throwing up, so maybe it is just going around everywhere. We came back to South Dakota and it is here too. Of course, with that many people in such a small space, most everybody there got it too.
Lexie does not take a bottle or a pacifier. However, I am a resourceful grandmother. This worked great other than her shirt got a LITTLE wet.
I have Sandy and my sister, Tresa, is holding Kade (aka chip or chipper). Don't we look like great grandmas? I wish we had more pictures of people, but with limited bathrooms, we didn't do hair or make-up and no one wanted their pictures taken. I also wish we had a picture of the food--we ate well the whole time we were there.
Dave got some beautiful pictures while we were there. If you like scenery, check out the link to the DRBair Photography site down a little ways on the left side of the blog.
