Tyler turns Four

Yesterday was Tyler's 4th birthday. We celebrated at his folks' home for a birthday dinner along with Aunt Vickie, Aunt Sue, and Uncle Jim. We being myself, Grandma Mary, and Grandpa Mike. We enjoyed a delicious pizza, salad, and chocolate dessert and ice cream. Tyler opened his presents and proofed to be an outstanding host. We all had a great time.

Mary's birthday

Tonight we had a very nice dinner at Sue's celebrating my birthday. She served a delicious meal topped off with a home-made oatmeal cake with freshly milled flour. Tyler entertained us with stories and Lucas joined in at times. It was a fun evening!

Easter brunch was celebrated today at our house with guests Jim and Vickie, Sue, Diane, Scott, Tyler, and Lucas. After a vigorous Easter Egg hunt by Tyler we sat down to a delicious meal. Jim provided a scrumptous guiche, Sue a refreshing fruit salad, Diane sauteed tasty sausages and I served Apple Pecan French Toast. It was a lovely day with lovely guests.

Celebration

Thursday March 24 was the Grand Opening of the Brettler Family Place at Sandpoint. The Lowry Community Center was recognized at this time. Mike and I were at this event along with Sue, Diane, Tyler, and Lucas. Mike was honored due to his bill passed while in Congress in 1987 called the McKinney Act which gave relief to hundreds of thousands of homeless persons and made this project possible.

Trail With No Path

Today Mike, Jim, Tyler and I hiked the Trail With No Path on Cougar Mt. It was a cloudy but fresh day with no rain as we traversed the wooded trail down to the cave and waterfall. Tyler led the way. We all had a wonderful time!
