Brothers...

One of our favorite movies when raising up our children was "White Christmas"...

It was fun...hearing our girls mimic the song

"Sisters"... (smile)

(I tried embedding the movie portion of this song...but, for some reason...it wouldn't work)

Now, if there was only a song about "Brothers"...(smile)

Garvin and I had so much FUN...

Garvin and his brothers, Greg and Scott, have not been together for "16" YEARS...

I haven't seen my YOUNGEST brother, Scott, in 10 years...

and my brother, Steve, in...a couple or so years...

I think there is something "special" and "endearing" about "sibling" relationships... 

different than with our parents...

Out of the 500 pictures I took on this trip...

I thought I would choose a few just with our brothers...

I will post much more later about our trip, Marj's birthday

celebration...and other moments...

but this is just...

"TO OUR BROTHERS"

Greg and Garvin

We are at Garvin's brother's Scott place in

Dallas, Oregon

Greg, Garvin and Scott

Having a light-hearted moment...

Must have been a good one...

Scott and Garvin

So good to see them together...

My brother, Steve...

We spent a couple of nights with him and Jerilyn

in Sandy, Oregon...

Doesn't he look great...!!! For having gone over a cliff

and breaking his neck in two places?

He is in CONSTANT PAIN...and works HARD

in staying in shape...to compensate for the damage

to his neck and ribs...etc.

He LOVES to Bar-B-Q - so we had a GREAT CHICKEN DINNER!

We are only 14 months apart...

Lots of GREAT MEMORIES...

Steve starting laughing at something Garvin was doing...

Took Steve awhile to stop laughing!

Now...to meet my baby brother, Scott...

I had to put this picture up...cause Garvin lined up the picture

to capture the "antlers" over Scott's head...(smile)

This was taken in Scott's house 

Post Falls, Idaho

Little brothers never change...

It was hard for him to keep a straight face...

I think the deer in the background...

seems to understand all too well...(smile)

He really is very funny...(smile)

After Marj's "80th" Birthday party...

we drove to Lincoln City, Oregon to Scott and Bev's 

beach house...The beach house is only about 1/2 block

from the beach...

So, Greg, Garvin, Scott, and his dog, and I

went for a stroll on the beach...

EARLY in the morning...

It was our last moments before 

Garvin and I had to leave...

Had a hard time getting Garvin to behave himself...

Do I really need to comment here? (smile)

Great, isn't it?
