We headed to Boise for Memorial Weekend so we could be at Megan's graduation. For some extra fun, Megan planned a family hike to her favorite spot, Jump Creek Falls. It was a short, easy hike, and the waterfall was beautiful.
Since we knew Grandma and Aunt Charlene weren't doing well, we decided to make a quick trip to see them, too. Grandma was tired and slept a lot, but she was able to share some fun memories with us.
Mom gave her a haircut while the girls rode Aunt Denise's horses.
First they combed and braided their tails and gave them a little pampering, and then they rode them around the ranch for an hour or so.
As usual, Brent and Janette always have new kittens, and Anna found one to snuggle.
I've always loved watching my mom with her sisters. They have so much fun together, and you can tell how much they love each other.
We made it to Baker on the way back from Haines and stopped in to see Charlene and Jerry. She had recently fallen and had surgery, and she wasn't feeling great, but she still seemed to enjoy our visit. It was great to visit but sad to see how badly Parkinson's has affected her body. She still had a sunny smile, though, and had us laughing a few times. I sure am grateful for family!
