Family and Friends

As Thanksgiving and the Holiday Season rapidly approach we are reminded of the many blessings that we have. We have enjoyed good health, happy memories and we were thrilled to share our new home in the Wild West with so many family and friends this summer. Here is a picture recap of the many memories we are thankful for this year:

We were glad to have Derek home for a quick visit before he started work in the real world!

Courtz came out for a visit to the Wild West!

Ashley & Grandpa Ernie enjoyed a rafting trip down the Snake River together!

A fabulous week together with our parents!

Lucky to see my cousin Maureen as she had a quick business trip to JH. We decided that this would be the perfect spot for the Nelson/Freeman/Olsen Family reunion Summer 2012!

Who needs the Big City - The NYC Ballet was in residence in JH for a week!
We, of course, went to their performance - spectacular!

Happy Birthday good friend Kay! Celebrated by biking GTNP...beautiful!

Mike, Terri & Shayna spent a week exploring the Wild West with us.
Mike claims the only way to bike is pulling an extra 35 pounds - he especially enjoyed the uphill!

Shayna loved swimming in String Lake.

We were so happy to have Shayna visit - a great excuse to enjoy a  Chuck Wagon Dinner!

Another activity that I had been wanting to experience - the Stagecoach Tour around town. Thanks Shayna for making it happen! Jackson Hole is a great place to be a kid (or an adult who wishes she were still a kid)!!!

My Happy Hiker Shayna - she went non-stop!

Welcome Good Friends! Lots of fun & laughs, just like old times with Lori, Jim, Zak & Lia!

Vacation Bliss!

Hidden Falls is even more magnificent when shared with friends!

The Happiest Hour!

Girlfriends + Good Wine = FUN TIMES!

Picking up where we left off, with cocktails in the backyard - forever friends!

Twins, and lots of other fun for the weekend!
Good thing we are so smart and cute and skinny and funny - BFF!

Harvey & Kim came out to enjoy JH...and pay off the 2 bets (finally) that they lost to Barry!
Thanks for a great time & some great meals too!

What better way to celebrate the big 5-0 than with great friends, Anita & Greg, and great wine!

Ride on!!! Thanks for visiting often - next stop will be Carbondale, CO we promise!

Anita & Greg on their way to the top!

Paige came out for a visit before both girls headed back to college for their sophomore year (yikes)!

No better place than The Bird to hang out with girlfriends!

Ashley and her favorite Jackson Hole boys!

 Lots of fun times this summer - thanks to everyone who made the journey and for providing us with so many wonderful memories.

Have a safe and Happy Thanksgiving. We will be thinking of you! Watch for us on TV @ the Macy's Day Parade...heading to the Big Apple to visit Derek for the holiday :)
