Random happenings back home

Here are a few more pictures of random happenings from our visit back home in Idaho.


We had almost everyone home so my brother and his wife threw together a Murray Family Reunion at the last minute. A dessert contest (like on The Food Network) took place and my Dad, little brother Blaine, and my brother-in-law Gary all got to be the judges. There were some way yummy entries. My little sister Jamie ended up winning! Congrats Jamie!!

The night before the family reunion, we had all the grandkids over to Mom and Dad's for a cousin sleepover. Our first activity was to go up and decorate their cousin Keagan's grave. I went beforehand and got the little girls silk flowers and the little boys a star shaped balloon. We went up and decorated his grave and then talked about how we will get to see him again one day.


(Nephews L to R: Dawson (8) Campbell (6) Hayden (4) and Zachary) I love these boys!! My sister has been kind enough all these years to let me take part in their lives and I love them like they're my own! They were so cute with Zachary and we are so excited to have them come visit us in Alaska!
We were talking about how tall Zachary was one night while my sister's friend Jess was over. It was late and we were laughing at and doing dumb things and decided to compare Zachary's height with Jess' height. As you can see, Zachary at only 3 months is half as tall as Jess is at 18 years! Ha ha ha!! Love it!
Zachary getting a quick bath from Grandma Sherri while I was getting ready to go somewhere! My Mom is ALWAYS found doing something to help others out! Love ya Mom!!
