July 2009

Hi all

I will be making 2 July pages lots happening this month and a few late pic pages(Naomi Birth,Larra birth,Carol Ed Visit,Thea Grad etc....We have a Facebook page too(Marshall Lesley Cody( Burnett) that I will be putting all the  my leftover pics that I don't scrap if you want to check that out! We have had an active summer so far  . . . a trip to Nebraska. a trip to Ohio, the loss of Marshall's mother ,Connie  and now we are going to California to see my folks and my brother Joey his son Brendon and his girl Trisha.

Naomi had her 15th birthday this year....she just gets prettier  and prettier ....looks like she has lots of friends ...I miss that little cutie!

Of, course Becka gets to be  the center of attention cause she is going to have our first little great grandson,Braxton....this a family pic of grandma Carol and Gandpa Ed...so glad you got to come wish we wouldhave been there too to visit with you all...maybe next time

Does everyone think they have the prettiest grandaughters ? beause I sure do....she's a pretty smart cookie too...Next year high school....so unbelievable

We all met for dinner one night ,we went out to lunch and we went to Pattys house to watch their cute little parade...after we went to the Sutherland Rodeo .(really good rodeo one of the top in the state)..we also went to the church for a pancake breakfast and went to the kid races in the park ..the whole town was there it was so cute

Oh my gosh,,,,we had such a good time at their house ....they were so gracious to have us ...they are just moving in and they took the time to feed and entertain us....so sweet of them!...One of the fun thingswegot to do was to go for a beautiful boat ride in their Lake....25yrds or so from their front door ...how great is that? Barb drove the boat and that cookie knows how to really drive that thing.....It was fun

My last morning in town I didnt want to miss seeing Uncle Nick and Aunt Catherine ...we tried to connect earlier in the week but they had a luncheon they were going to but it worked out It was good to see them and Mary Margaret came over too so that was fun to see her and get caught up on the family...where they all are and what they are all doing.. I was so glad on the way out of town I stopped at her office and got to spend some time with her.... I guess I might be a little weird but I really love our family ...we are so fortunate to have been raised when we were and have time together at our grandmas as cousins....all I can say is God is good

Larra celebrated her 42nd birthday this year....she got some really cool gifts one being a Blackberry Phone...how cool is that? But I think her greatest gift this year was having her mom and Ed come to visit ... they had a great time

Chickens finally came and are growing fast...I need to take a trip up to see them, and little Bagel

Wow, Marsh went fishing alreeady before our trips and got this great trout, can't wait to eat it....

We had a great time in Nebraska....We went there to go to the memorial service for Marshall's best friend from high school,Doug Evans...it was a very moving sad and happy..While we were there we took in a few sights one being Buffalo Bill Cody's(cousin to Marshall)Ranch, We had a Divine Appointment and met an old friend he hadn't seen in 27 yrs...it was a tear jerker....

Marshall presented grandpa Buck with the Native American Worriors Medal of Honor.....for service to their country as a Veteran....We are so proud that he served in the Navy to keep our nation free....and we say Thank You

My cousin and I  went ot hunt for my grandparents grave ...we had some sentimental moments talking about missing them and the fun times e had with them 

When we were in Ohio My cousin graciously let us stay with her....I was so glad because she was one of my best friends growing up...and she is still funny and fun...she just redid the bedroom we were staying in ...it is a bluebird cottage theme...and you guys that know me know I like cottage! so it was like we were at a bed and breakfast....Their whole place is cute...Jeff says he is not a carpenter but he made some cabinets in the bathroom that are very cool...She and Jeff were so sweet to us....we shared meals at Aunt Barbara and Unlce Mickeys and the whole family came ..Billy was so sweet and so was his wife.... we went on Sun to my cousin Micheal's house for a party ..really nice place!!! he and is  wife were very gracious to all those people in their home! I loved it...and so did Marsh....He told me when we on the plane "I really like all your cousins they are so thoughtful...." all i could say was ,amen!!I am just so blessed with all my family...GOD HAS BEED SO GRACIOUS TO ME
