Tribute to Ebony and Ivory

Dad (Steve) and Mom (Mickey) had to give up their pups because they didn't have a place that they could keep them. We miss them so much, so we decided to put some of our favorite pictures up of Sophie, the westie, and Gabby, the daschund.

We call this the weannie roast. They loved to lay in front of our heater, and whenever they got too hot on one side, they would roll over to the other side.

Here they are in their comfy bed.

Catch Up...

It has really been a long time since we updated this. So we decided to catch up on a few things that were missed. Since we have missed so much, we thought it best to start with Easter 2007.

Here is Ginny finishing up the traditional Bunny Cake with Grandpa Steve and Grandma Mickey in the back. The cake was a little different this year, because everyone wanted a chocolate cake, instead of carrot cake. The general opinion was that it tasted like an Almond Joy.

Here are Savannah and Andrew getting excited to hunt eggs in Granddad and Grandma Robbins' back yard in their Provo place.

Autumn also was very excited to hunt for eggs. She found so many!

Camping!

Steve in his newly motorized sail boat!

We went camping with Mark's friends, Robert and Amber, and all of Ginny's family that was out here at the time. Robert and Amber were in charge of starting the food and making dinner for the first night out. So here is their story.

Amber prepares the food....

While Robert begins to start the fire, (since that is the man's job!)

It's a little discouraging, but that's ok.

Why won't this start?!!!!!!

Here honey, I'll hold your hand, and help you do it.

"We" did such a good job!!!

Meanwhile, Mark is calling Ginny with some bad news. "Honey, i broke the boat. You know your Dad's new motor? Well......."

On Friday night we stayed up until 3:00 am crawdad fishing in Deer Creek. Here is a piece of raw chicken that we used to catch them.

Maegan sporting a head lamp so that she could get a good look at the crawdads. They are definitely not afraid to bite any toes!

Robby, Richard and Lisa checking out one of thier prize catches.

Crawdad fights don't work the same as cock fights. Not as much aggression.....

Especially after they have been stepped on!

Winter Fun With Grandma Robbins

This past winter Grandma came out to have some fun. She was quite the crazy woman on the slopes. She prefered the ungroomed, rough hills, to the safer ones.

















Dad was getting the camera ready to take pictures of all of us at Soldier Hollow in Midway, UT.


Zach finally "warmed up" to me on their visit out here. We were headed to the top!
















Mom trying to understand what just happened to her on the slope. Somehow she ended up in the middle of some red nets on her head.
