Great Pic

So my friend took this picture on his vacation this weekend. Thought I would share. :)

Hey Little Brother,
Amazing that I am finally able to get into this account. Surprisingly enough, I'm sending you greetings from the technological center of the country - Stephenson Michigan. Beau and I have returned from Camp and are heading back to Seattle tomorrow so he can catch a flight to Alaska. We think of you often and pray for your safety, knowing you will be ok. I was pleased to hear that you had news from Paul before anyone else did. Nice. We love you dearly and hope to get Kate camping with us in the next few weeks. Be safe.

Today is the 4th of July and I'm sending my THANKS to Ford, Stosh, Jill, April, Kurt and all of those individuals out there taking care of keeping me FREE. Thanks also to the wives, husbands and sole mates that have, and are, enduring long separations from there loved ones so that they can get on with the job at hand. You are all in my thoughts and prayers.

Auntie Carla

Thank You Fordo!!

Fordo.. Thanks for you.. and all of the men and women who have dedicated their lives to keeping us safe! Your selflessness astounds me! You are truly an amazing young man. My thoughts and prayers are are with you every moment of every day. I love you! Mom

Happy 4th Ya'll....

Stay safe, enjoy the company you keep, celebrate your freedoms and keep the men and women protecting them in your thoughts and prayers! Happy Independence Day!!!

WOW...am I dumb!

Hi Ford ( you too Bean ! )
Just checking in after several weeks on the sidelines...something went haywire with my Google account...I have no idea how it went 'off' or how it came back 'on' ...total mystery to the Worlds Worst Blogger ! I think the Gmail Gremlins are messing with me.
Thinking of you ,Ford...and want you to know that we love you and we miss you ! It's coming up on the 4th of July and lots of people are planning trips , or picnics, various celebrations...many of us will be celebrating YOU...you have made this holiday come alive for me...and even though I do not have any special plans...I will be thinking about you and your team mates. Stay focused and stay alert...I know you have work to do ....but I also hope you will have the chance for a little down time over the next few days ...to unwind and think about all your friends and family back home...people who truly care about you and what you are doing. We are very proud of you.
Love,
Kate's Dad, Mr. Wegman, Dad, or the Worlds Worst Blogger !

Good laugh

Kate - That's the best thing I've seen all month- your comments actually just gave Tehya and I a good laugh! Blayne is on his way to the airport to send Kayla to her dad's for 2 months, I spent 3+ hours in the car today picking the girls up-didn't see anything as good as your pic on our trip. We're wishing you and Ford and the rest of friends & family a wonderful fourth..... Tehya just brought me a credit card of Blayne's and said she wants to give it to Auntie Kate. You've been working on this girl-huh. As always, we're going to sleep now and you are both in our prayers.

Lots of love,
Shanna & Tehya

Awesome Dog Pic

That pic is the best! Pretty cool to see a biker dude with his dog in pink sunglasses. I thought you only saw that sort of thing in California.

Love to all,
Aunt Carla

Only in the good 'ol US of A.....

At lunch today, running errands near my office - I swear people... you can't make this stuff up! I think my favorite thing about the shot is that he is looking at me, as if I am the crazy one!

Hey Forder

Hey Bro. Just a quick note to let you know the Olympia Washington Lannan's are thinking about you.

Tehya wanted me to tell you she loves you.

We went to a "get together" on Sunday June 29th, sponsored by Tehya's pre-school/day care provider.

They got up at 0500 to barbeque a brisket and a couple of pork shoulders....Real BBQ...not the kind that us northern folk are used to.

She also put a swimming pool in the back yard, and at 100 degrees on Sunday it was timely.

Your neice is not a big fan of clothing. Three times at the gathering, Shanna and I had to remind her she had to wear clothes. She will drop "trow" at the drop of a hat. I'm not talking down to her "big girl panties." I'm talking completely butt-ass naked, in front of a crowd of about 20 people.

In fact Tehya is well known at Tracy's house for getting naked on a pretty regular basis. The kid isn't a big fan of following most societal norms involving clothing.

I hope she grows out of it before she reaches high school, or I may have a stripper on my hands.

Shanna, Tehya, Kyleigh, and myself are headed down to Seaside Oregon for the 4th of July Holiday to spend it with a former co-worker and her family.

I hope to catch up on some surfing and reading. Tehya plans on running around naked as much as possible, shaking up the Status Quo....questioning societal norms...and calling BS on as much of it as she can....kinda like her old man.

Today is the 1 year anniversary of my "spiritual awakening. Oh how my life has changed dramatically in one year.

So...in closing, if you are able to read this prior to 4 July....we all want you to know how proud of you we are, how much we love you, and that you are in our prayers at the close of every day.


I love you kid...more than you know


Namaste
