our Memorial weekend
My family has a tradition that every Memorial weekend we go up to the Whiting Homestead and spring clean our family cabin. All the other Whiting family members go up and all of us families spring clean around the homestead. This year Ronnie got to show off his landscaping skills by trimming the trees. I was impressed he did a great job. This was also the first year that Faith was old enough that I could just let her roam around the homestead with her cousins. She had the time of her life!
Of course it wouldn't be an exciting weekend for Ronnie unless he got to shoot something...poor fox:(
We had fun at the park in Show Low with my sister Lindsey and her two kids Shanay and Matthew.
What could be more fun than going to the carnival in the Safeway parking lot in Springerville? Even Ronnie and my brother Jay had fun sliding down the giant slide with Faith.
Sunday my whole family went to St Johns to clean around my dads grave site and leave some flowers. The picture with Jaylee and my brother Jay is very special to me because this was the first time Jaylee has visited her grandpa Jay who she was named after. This by far was my favorite day of our trip. We left on Wednesday and got home tonight. It was a long trip in the mountains but Ronnie had to satisfy his craving because we leave on Friday for San Diego and wont be home until July 1st. Ill post pictures of our Cali vacation from our laptop while were there.

I had no idea your dad was a Farr! Ben & I were up in SJ Memorial weekend...that would have been so funny if we would have run into you guys! and Jaylee looks so precious!
I'm glad you guys had so much fun. We missed you though this weekend.
Jessica, are you related to the Farr's too? Farr was my maiden name.
Hey, Aleia Ash is getting me started with this whole "blog thing". Wish us luck! Add me to your links if you want See ya later!
haha..no i just know alot of Farrs. I still cant believe we are distantly related...small world!
LOL...its probably an SJ thing! who knows! and 007 is where you drop people off in one spot and they have to run to another spot while people in trucks are spotlighting trying to find them. And if you get caught you have to get back in the truck. We started from the Circle K and had to go to the high school..
How fun! I can't wait to see your Cali pics...have a blast :)
Hey I am glad you guys had such a memorable trip. That is a sweet picture of Jaylee touching the headstone. It was great to see you guys! Have fun on your month long vacation!!
Did you get what you wanted??
I'm glad we went..... I know your dad was watching us. Mom and Dad really enjoyed having us all together. Wish David and Michele could have been there then the family could have been complete! We need to go every year from now on!
