Pictures, pictures, pictures...the grand finale...

2008-08-29T18:39:00.000-07:00

Gotta get a picture of the cake! I love the reaction of Sheri, who is behind John.

Friends and family

2008-08-29T18:33:00.000-07:00

Notice the beautiful view behind everyone. It was breathtaking!

RJ and Judy

2008-08-29T18:22:00.000-07:00

On the left here is Judy Holbrook. She is sort of Jaimi's mother-in-law. Really close friends of the family. Judy mad ethe wedding a real wedding. Jaimi really loves her and and it is easy to see why.

I call John "RJ" for Referend John. Of course, he introduced himself as Reverend Love during the skit the night before the wedding. In truth, they went on the computer to have John Holbrook get the "authority" to perform the marriage ceremony. The wedding was at their cabin and the place Jaimi likes best in the world, next to her own home.

Does she look happy?? You bet she does!

2008-08-29T18:19:00.000-07:00

TA-DA!!!

2008-08-26T20:53:00.000-07:00

A brand new family!

2008-08-26T18:15:00.001-07:00

I would like to introduce John and Jaimi White with Sophie (Maid of Honor) and Kysha.

What a happy family!!

The Wedding

2008-08-26T18:01:00.000-07:00

Is this real?

Yes, and aren't we happy!!!

You may now kiss the bride!

The BIG EVENT

2008-08-26T17:57:00.001-07:00

Looking impatient, don't you think???

Maybe alittle nervous???

Here comes the bride!

2008-08-26T17:40:00.000-07:00

Of course, there has to be a party the night before. Here we see some interesting gifts for their up coming Hawaii honeymoon. Jaimi didn't think it fit..hahahah....

Sophie, the maid of honor was present... and willing!

The day before.

2008-08-26T17:32:00.000-07:00

This is just the beginning...First the dance (in Jaimi's dining room) with Bear...

Then off to Holland Lake and the 1937 cabin...very quaint, don't you think?

Then, of course, the groom. Name, John Michael White. Fishing off the dock. He likes to fly fish.

Holland Lake

2008-08-26T12:19:00.000-07:00

So, what do you think???? More to follow....

Montana

2008-08-26T12:16:00.000-07:00

Then on to Montana to see the Jaim. Always a favorite trip. Here she is on her porch in her new swing. Looking good, Jaim!

2008-08-26T12:14:00.000-07:00

A quick trip to St. George (over one night..). We now have two green Lazy-boy rocker recliners in our living room. We found Yvette and visited with her. She is Bear's youngest sister.

Greg has the toys!!

2008-08-26T12:08:00.000-07:00

Fun times when Greg decided we should go four wheeling! I am such the city girl...at every turn, I am reminded! (That's me on the right - I am actually smiling)

Greg is ever the REAL cowboy, said I topped out at 6 mpg..so embarrassing!!!

2008-08-26T12:05:00.000-07:00

This little cutie pie is Aspen Jade. She lives with her Nanna and Papa and Great-gramma Idonna in Eagle Mountain at Lehi, Utah. We spent time with her while we visited Stephanie and mom (Idonna).

Salt Lake City

2008-08-26T11:58:00.000-07:00

We went to the Joseph Smith movie and dinner at the JS Building (?) in Salt Lake. THese are family. Bear's brothers Greg and Don and their wives Judy and Katherine. We had such a good time and it was great to see them! After dinner we walked around and sat at the reflection pool. I caught a couple of great pictures of the SL temple. Very nice eve.

Whew!! What a busy couple of weeks!

2008-08-26T11:39:00.000-07:00

We met with Colby and Sarah for dinner. Look at this cool couple of "to-be" parents! We love these guys. We had a great time and Sarah managed to keep her food down...Yea, Sarah!

2008-08-04T23:17:00.000-07:00

My son and his family went to Alaska on vacation this past week. Look at their handsome faces. They had a BALL!! Maybe it wasn't such a good day for the fish.

2008-07-23T22:59:00.001-07:00

Just couldn't resist a couple pics of Eyelan Bear..

Just love that face!!

Everybody needs a potty!

2008-07-22T00:04:00.000-07:00

What can I say about these? This is one of those self-cleaning, stand alone expensive, etc. etc. potties they tried in Seattle. They sort of turned into mini drug and prostitute houses...hahaha.... They are now being sold on eBay for about $84,000. Need a potty in your back yard? Have I got a deal for you!!! hahahahahaa......

2008-07-22T00:01:00.000-07:00

Here we are at the Fisherman for lunch.

Yum yum. The sun was shining and the Sound was beautiful!

Bus Ride to Seattle

2008-07-21T23:56:00.000-07:00

These are our very good friends who must remain nameless to protect the innocent... (the what?)
What a fun day. Who would have thought we could have sooo much fun riding the bus?

Sisters, Sisters...sisters

2008-07-18T20:10:00.000-07:00

Way to go Tif!! We are so proud of you!!!!

Tiffany graduated from Clover Park Technical College as a Dialysis Technician

Only one ready to go home...Bye, til next year!

2008-07-10T15:00:00.000-07:00

Such a lot of fun, so little time...

2008-07-10T14:44:00.000-07:00

2008-07-10T14:40:00.000-07:00

Grama and Jaimi were up to their usual shenanigans! Cute, don't you think?

They are standing on our deck... See how close the water is?

2008-07-10T14:27:00.000-07:00

Grampa had fun!

Jaimi has always snuggled Grampa like this. Age changes nothing...isn't it great?

We were so happy Jaim came!

2008-07-10T14:16:00.000-07:00

Jaimi came all the way from Missoula to relax with the "old folks" We just loved having her here!

The Sand Piper

2008-07-10T14:02:00.000-07:00

See, right on the beach. The Sand Piper is so popular you usually have to make reservations a year in advance. We were lucky to get a big room on the third floor. See, the beach is just feet from the rooms...really cool!! (Actually, pretty cold as it rained some...)Here is Jaimi flying her kite.
The wind so strong I was surprised it didn't steal the kite away!

2008-07-10T14:00:00.001-07:00

That would be...the author of this blog...the puttiest of the putters....that would be Jodie!!Ta-da!!! (Can you believe it?)

Fun at Ocean Shores

2008-07-09T23:54:00.000-07:00

See them putt-putt putting. How fun. But! In the next picture you will see the girl with a hole in one...the lowest score of the day...and...the putting champion....

2008-07-09T21:57:00.000-07:00

This is Bear, doing what Bear does...putting. Well, putt-putt putting, but putting just the same. Mom, Dad, Jaimi, Bear and I all went to Ocean Shores this last week and we had a ball!!! (No pun intended...haha). I thought it appropriate to start with this picture as Bear made the BIG sacrifice and went with us instead of joining the SOB Tournament (Sons of Brothers) with the Rushtons on Saturday. Way to go, Bear!! Such a family guy! Of course, one would expect him to excel in this mini golf game, but, alas...well, look at that... can you see it? That little blue ball stuck behind that big big rock...oops...at the end of the day, Bear came in second...guess who came in first? ...read on...

Welcome Eyelan Bear

2008-07-01T00:49:00.001-07:00

You know what he is thinking...Am I lucky or what!!??

So, what do you think of me?

Tobias Eyelan Bear Seaman.

Now, that's a name! Sounds like royalty, don't you think?

Yea, me too.

Are these guys beautiful or what!!?? Natalie and her family came to visit this past couple of weeks. Though we didn't get to steal all of her time, we did get our share (we had to share). What a treat!!

2008-06-30T19:30:00.000-07:00

Just a couple of pics

of other favs of mine!

2008-06-30T19:26:00.001-07:00

Look at us! Aren't we having fun? This is Cassie, Bear's sister and his mom in their St.George home.

Now, this is our man Colby. What a cutie!!

Cute...look at Sarah ...Colby's wife.
We love the Larsens!!

2008-06-30T19:23:00.000-07:00

Check out these two handsome dudes!! My heart swells just to lay my eyes upon them. We are so blessed with our families!

Three Generations...pretty cute, huh?

2008-06-30T19:19:00.001-07:00

Amazing. These are two of my very most favorite people in the whole wide world. Doesn't hurt that they are related also...Are we a great threesome?

We've come a loooonnnggg way baby!! Haha!

Just the two of us!

2008-06-30T18:36:00.000-07:00

I think until I get the hang of this Blog thing, I am going to be rather random (surprise!) with family photos. Here is one I love. They could almost be the same person at different ages! Mother and son, what could be more precious!

2008-06-30T18:31:00.000-07:00

And this is the whole fam damily!

How very cool we are! And so big!! You might notice Ali's tummy. That lump is now a beautiful little boy named Wyatt! How time flies.

Well, this is the beginning!

2008-06-30T18:21:00.000-07:00

Here we see Bear, John, Jaimi, Crystal, Jodie, Max and Dan. We are a happy family...don't you think so?
