Time for lunch!

Matthew, Randall and Blake

 King of the hill...rock!
Randall was premature when he was born and both he and Cindy are thankful to be alive! As are All of us! He is a miracle baby and another answer to prayer, that he is simply a regular guy today. The Barrons went through a lot for a number of years since Randall's birth and are closer and stronger for it. We just love drinking in being with you and seeing who you are.

Blake Chambers and Debbie

William woke up! Daddy was hanging out in the car with him for a long time. Said the air conditioning and quiet was good for both.
Shari is waiting for Roger. They are both so busy getting everything up to that certain level before their little baby arrives. He is busy, busy at the farm. Just trying to get that last seeding and spraying squeezed in between rain showers.

Rachael is The Best! Next year she is a senior and she is so relaxed, happy to talk to Everyone, Funny, cute - a beautiful young woman. What a pleasure to get to know her so well! She was Wonderful with the adults and Wonderful with the kids. Thank you So Much Rachael for all of your love, time and friendship!

She has always been at the top of her class and has been attending a private high school of high academics. They require a lot of the kids, and still, Rachael is at the top of her classes. She also plays the piano and clarinet beautifully. Her parents have much to be proud of.

Rich and his son, Lance Johnsen, in the shade with Dad (Art Solberg) and Bruce Barron. Gillette is a long ways and we were so glad they came! Rich travels a lot with the mining business and his family events, but he really wanted to finally see everyone. He made One more big, long, round trip!

 Pappa and Mema with their grandkids.
Jamie Murphy, Jeff's daughter, is still in Sterling, Colorado with her mom, Tammy. She is just a little younger than Rachael. Mom and Dad still take regular trips to visit them, too!

In a visitor's center and then a short hike to see a beautiful view of Kalispell.

 William blazing his own trail.

Shari is So much better with her first pregnancy than I ever was! She was game to do everything this week!

It's hard to tell, but Randall found a really good vantage point on a large rock up higher.

 Bruce always likes getting the action, natural shots. Fun to see!

Daddy took the kids on a little extra, higher-up hike around the bend.

They found an interesting flying bug.

 It's surreal to be here in Montana, making it to a family gathering at a random time.

Awesome Adam. Marriage has its ups and downs, and he has truely stuck it out. God's mercy is the number one reason we are again, at a nice 'high spot.' Thank you Adam for never giving up on me. Thank you for your quiet, strong ways.

 Roger made it!
