Brett surprised us all by dressing up as Clark Griswold.
He had the entire outfit... cream sweater with a black dickey turtle neck, dress pants and white shoes.
He even had the moose mug. He quoted lines from Christmas Vacation all night.

Respect for our Flag 2011

Bre & Brook noticed their school flag was tattered and needed to be replaced.

They talked to Grandpa Mel and he was moved by their respect of the flag.

Our family and Grandpa Mel split the cost of the flag and Riverton Post 140 came to Rosamond Elementary to perform the flag raising ceremony. The school children learned a lot that day about respect for the flag and for those serving our country.


The ceremony included the 21 gun salute


The school children enjoyed meeting the Veterans

These are the school children that helped with raising the flag

We then participated in a flag retirement ceremony at the Riverton rodeo grounds.

There were hundreds of flags and many volunteers.

Austin Steffensen & Parker Kemp assisted the Veterans with the flag ceremony.


The first flag... Anjeanette, Teylor Hilton, Parker Kemp, Kierra Rodeback, Brooklyn

Our Riverton House

We lived in Riverton from January 2003 through December 2011

I fell in love with this house the first time I saw it. So many wonderful memories.
