Calley (aunt) and Gramma went over to the hospital with Aspen (big sister) to see our new little gal.
She was very alert and so darling...
Sharla (mom) looked beautiful and happy!
We got to watch her get her first bath and hairdo. Josiah (Dad) picked out the bow for her hair.
Here is a video of the event!

* A little about her middle name...

Josiah's middle name is Firsteen which is his grampa's (Becky's dad's) name first name. He was born during a full eclipse of the moon and his darling momma decided to name him Firsteen (first seen) Ineclipse Lane. It has been a great story ever since and no one ever forgot his name once they learned it.

Now another generation carries a part of that unique name and the story will go on and on... Thanks, Josiah & Sharla!

Caedence's great-grampa Lane was as unique an individual as his name. We miss and love him very much!

Last camping trip of 2008? Labor Day

Labor day 2008 weekend we went camping with Aspen & Brindley to Squaw Peak!



They were only up with us for Friday night and part of Saturday but we had lots of fun. We made a fort in the trees and ate breakfast there, found a furry catapillar, went for a hike, Aspen rode the moptorcycle with "crampa", watched a movie in the camper and burried each other in stuffed animals!



After that Glen and I rode our motorcycles up the road a ways and had a yummy BBQ. Sunday was getting stormy so we came back early. Just in time as Monday morning there was hail coming down and snow in the mountains!
