What a busy spring/summer it has been so far! Grandma Eggert was diagnosed with cancer and given only 2 to 4 months to live, so Tiffani and the girls came out in May and we all went and visited her, which came to be our last time to see her alive. We are so thankful for the Vennebergs who were able to witness to her and tell her of the saving grace of Jesus. She told them she was what they call a real heathen! But she knew it wouldn't be long until she would pass from this earth, and wasn't sure where she would be spending eternity. She was ready to receive Him into her life, and now is truly at peace and worshipping Him!

The girls were bashful at first of Grampa Alex...Hannah wasn't quite sure, but warmed up nicely!

We celebrated Hannah's first birthday. She didn't know what to think of the musical candle!

Happy 1st Birthday, Hannah Banana! Tiff with Shelley and Angie...On the road to Washington...those DVD players are sure nice for long trips!!

It was so nice to see cousin Cody in Billings... Beautiful mountain peaks covered with snow in Washington....

We finally arrived in Wenatchee, which is where Tiff and John's friends from college live, so she got to catch up with them...

We also made a trip to Richey and went for a walk... Gramma Lee had fun with Taylor... Taylor enjoyed Shawna and Ryan...
