Family Reunion

It's time that we started to think about our next family reunion. Marilyn wants to know if we should plan on having one in the summer of '08 or '09. She would also like to know if we want to do it at Dworshak. If we are doing it this next summer ('08) and want to do it at Dworshak we need to make reservations now. So leave a comment and let us know what you think.

The Short Family

What a great looking family. I can't believe how all the children have grown.

Why???

A week and a half before school starts and two weeks before the wedding they are in...

I'm not sure how much you can see of what they did, but Sarah said she didn't want to have bangs any more. So of course They cut them right off!!

Sweeping the hair across their foreheads (like older balding men) was about the only thing the hairdressers could do to "fix" it (with two weeks to a wedding I had to get it done).

The next day Larry asked them if they learned a lesson Sarah said "Yeah, don't cut your hair unless you want to get it cut by the barber."

Not really the lesson we wanted them to learn, I guess next time it doesn't get "fixed".

This will make you laugh

Okay, I so had to steal this from a friend of ours. This is so funny. The guy in the orange window is the best!

Sally

I want to let everyone know that Sally was life flighted tonight to Sacred Heart Hospital in Spokane tonight. Please keep her in your prayers. They don't know what's wrong yet. I'll let everyone know when I know.

pictures and pacifiers

Well, since no one has said otherwise, I'm assuming you either like or will tolerate the new design of this site! :)

Anyway, just thought I would update you all on the latest development in our household: Will has graduated from the use of a pacifier. That's right, he no longer uses one! It was just time to let it go. And he has gone an entire week without one, including naps and bedtime! It's been a long week with some rough patches in between the smooth ones, but all in all, it's all good! The picture of him and Bradley on the right was from a long time ago. And now look at how much he's grown!

*sniff-sniff*

Now just wish us luck in getting him to eat his food while sitting at the table...

MORE CONSTRUCTION

Hello everyone! Just wanted to give you the heads up that we're fiddling around some more with the site, so it's kinda bonkers right now. Sorry for the confusion and thanks for your patience! And let me know what y'all think! :)

Love, Beth

Keepin in touch just took on a whole new meaning!

Hello Summers family
this is exciting and will be fun. I am still on the road so probably will not be contributing a whole lot in the next month but I am still excited to do this.
It is just so much fun to keep in touch with everyone.
Love to you all.
Robyn

great website

I just wanted to pass this cool website along to everyone. I stumpled across it on craigslist. It's worth having, since it posts recalls for everything. There's all sorts of toys listed and food, among other items.

Newsletter

Hey Everyone,

First, I want to remind everyone that I'll be sending out the newsletter this weekend. Please send me your news. Second, thank you for all the support you've given me the last 2 1/2 yrs in doing the newsletter. This will be my last month. Brenda will be doing the newsletter starting next month. Thank you so much Brenda. I'll still be doing this website though. Thank you again everyone!

Love,
Katie

Hi Everyone

This is exciting and a learning experience. We are so exciting to have a place to report how we are doing and to learn about the rest of the family. Thanks so much for all of those who put this together. This will be so much fun.

love much,
brad, maggie, and bradley

Under Construction...

Hey everyone, it's Beth again. Since Katie's given me the go ahead, I'm going to just play around with this site's design. I'd love to hear what everyone would like to see on here as far as a theme goes. So leave a comment letting me know what looks good to you, m'k? :)

ETA (Edited to Add): I need to know what you guys think of this template. Do you want me to roll with it, or would you like something a bit more subdued. Tell me what you do and don't like about it, such as the basic colors being used, or the background, etc. What are your color choices, what kind of an atmosphere do you want here, and so on and so forth. Feel free to check out other blogs or websites and if you find something that tickles your fancy, then copy and paste the link in the comment section. Thanks (sorry for the chaos)!!

PS- The heading will be different (I just threw mine in there for now, but I will change it as soon as I design one that matches whichever template we decide on). But notice the double sidebars. Anyway, let me know what you're thinking.

YIPPEE!

Katie, you're a gem. By the way, I will be switching my main email over to our gmail account, SeanLeighFam@gmail.com. So, if you want to link the blog to that email I'd appreciate it. Also, can you link Leigh's doulasaregood@yahoo.com account as well?

WE GOT A JOB, and it actually pays well. I will be a resource teacher for one of Idaho's online academies. I will be desiging their new secondary technology and physical sciences programs for them. It is pretty close to my dream teaching job. So, we're excited. But, pray for me; I'll need it.

Love you all!

I'll Help

I don't know who Beth is, but Katie tells me she's doing the design for the blog. Beth, if you're creating your own theme and want any help with the CSS let know. By the way, if any of you develop in Flash, Flex or both, hit me up.

Hey

I'm glad we're getting some posts on here! This is awesome. I'm looking forward to chating w/ everyone on here too.

Thank you to Beth who's going to be using her wonderful talents in makig this blog outstanding.

Please let me know if you guys have any suggestions!

Thank you,
Katie
