Bass Lake

The Burnhams had an impromptu get together down at Bass Lake this last weekend to go swimming. All the kids had so much fun. We did have quite the scare when Landon went missing. But, he was later found huddled under some other groups towels drying off. Apparently he forgot where our table was. But, good times were had by all.

Landon had so much fun down at Bass lake this last weekend. We strapped a life jacket on him and he went off the diving board. Jaysen made him swim out to the dock without any help (jaysen swam next to him of course) and though it took forever because Landon only knows how to doggy paddle, he made it.

This is my neice, Jordan, and my nephew, Kaden.

Mackenzee couldn't get enough of the water. She just loved it. Hailey held her for a bit in the water while I took some snaps.

Here's Breanna walking down the runway. She is wearing the latest in swimwear. You go girl!

Kirsten rocks


look...she loves me soooo much that she's trying to kiss me.

My neice, Kirsten, has grown up so much. It's been almost two years since we've seen her. We've missed her more than we could ever say.

Doing her hair and makeup is a ritual we have done since I was her age. She used to come and visit and I would curl her 4 year old hair and put lipstick and eye shadow on her little face and take pictures of her. Nothing has changed. Although the last time I was able to do this was almost two years ago. Sigh. Hopefully it won't be that long again.....love you Kirst.

Robinson reunion


Ah!!! The refreshing taste of Rhubarb punch. Can't you see how much she enjoys it?

The Robinson house turned 100 years this year. It was built in 1906! And still just beautiful. My grandpa Robinson was born IN the house. Lots of fun memories and stories here. We had a great time reminiscing about the past playing here as kids.

Here's Grandpa and all of his kids. I haven't seen some of my aunts in sooo long. It was nice to see them all, and have all of them together. I couldn't pass up the photographic opportunity and made them all get together for a snapshot. Starting from the left is Dee (the baby of the family), Janice (youngest daughter), Sheryl (the middle child), Grandpa, Marcine (oldest daughter), and my dad (the oldest child).

Landon's newfound freedom


Yay!!!! Look at that!!! He did it! No training wheels. He's very proud of himself too.

Showing off a little bit isn't he???? Rightfully so. Unfortunately the bribe for him to learn to ride without the training wheels was the purchase of a new bike. Now we have to pay up.....Sure, his knees hit the handle bars on this bike he got when he was four.....so he needs one...but dang it!!!!! Oh well. Kudos to Landon.

even more wedding photos


Holly stole my camera and took this adorable photo of Alina...

it's a close call, but look how much cuter my orphan child is than Alina.....lol
it was so hot that Kenzee practically stole my glass of water and dumped it down the front of her trying to get a drink.

And here is the species Greta girlicus in her native surroundings. Watch as she crouches low just before she makes the great leap to the rocks below. Nature at it's most beautiful state.......

More wedding photos


I just love this photo. Savanna just loves her mommy sooooo much.

Brotherly and Sisterly love.....

Genea wanted to be in the wedding photos too. So, we had to take a few of her. She's such a cutie, how can you not?

Wedding photos


Here is the happy couple

the blushing bride

the new family

Here they are!!! The wedding was Saturday at my Grandma's house. Mel looked beautiful and so did the girls in their pretty dresses. Though the older ones were dying to take off the pretty dresses after a couple of hours in the hot sun. I can't say I blame them.
With this wedding I have inherited two more neices and two more nephews. There's Nathaniel (14), Jonathon (10), Emily (7), and Stephanie (5). I hope I got the ages right. A few of them had birthdays the past few months and so numbers changed. Anyway...Our family grew quite a bit, and we're excited to have them.
